Mary J. Blige - Take Me As I Am lyrics
Mary J. Blige [Mary Jane Blige] NY, U.S.🇺🇸
[Mary J. Blige - Take Me As I Am lyrics]
She's been down and out
She's been wrote about
She's been talked about constantly
She's been up and down
She's been pushed around
But they held her down, NYC
She has no regrets she accepts the past
All these things they helped to make she
She's been lost and found
And she's still around
There's a reason for everything (yeah)
You know I've been holding on
Try to make me weak but I still stay strong
Put my life all up in these songs
Just so you can feel me
So you can get the real me
So take me as I am (Take me as I am)
Or have nothing at all (Nothing at all)
Just take me as I am
Or have nothing at all (Nothing at all)
Yes, she's older now yes, she's wiser now
Can't disguise her now
She don't need no one tellin' her
What to do and say
No one tellin' her who to be
She's on solid ground
She's been lost and found
Now she answers to G-O-D
And she's confident this is not the end
Ask me how I know 'cause she is me (yeah)
You know I've been holdin' on
(I've been holdin' on)
Try to make me weak but I still stay strong
(Stay strong)
Put my life all up in these songs
Just so you can feel me
So you can get the real me
So take me as I am
Or have nothing at all (At all)
Just take me as I am (As I am)
Or have nothing
(Or nothing, baby) at all (This is me
This is me)
So, it's all or nothing at all
All or nothing at all
Don't you know I can only be me?
(I can only be me, yeah, I can only be me)
So, it's all or nothing at all
All or nothing at all
Don't you know I can only be me?
(I can only be me, yeah)
So take me as I am or have nothing at all
Just take me as I am
(I can only be me, yeah, I can only be me
Yeah) or have nothing at all
(So take me
Take me as I am or have nothing at all)
Take me as I am (Take me) take me as I am
Said it's all or nothing at all
Said it's all or nothing at all
Just take me as I am (yeah)
Or have nothing at all
(Or nothing, baby, this is me, this is me)
Just take me as I am (Take me as I am)
Or have nothing, nothing at all
(Take me as I am)
Just take me as I am (Take me as I am)
Or have nothing, nothing take me as I am
