Текст песне : Wyclef Jean. The Preacher's Son. Take Me As I Am.

I wanna send this one out to my vanilla ice-cream, chocolate, puddin' pie
That stayed with me in the hood, do or die refugee camp
Yeah, this one goes out to my arm and joy, my banana that never split
The one that stuck with me

Before I had the bling bling, I thought I'd hit up in sing sing
Who would have ever thought that we'd be doin' our thing?
I know I did a little cheatin' but once I got caught
I send you a parcel of roses, you sent them back and told me go to hell

But girl you know that, you take me as I am
Even though my fam don't understand
Why I put that rock up on your hand?
That's 'cos you take me as I am
(Take me as I am)

You take me as I am
(Yeah, I'm a take you as you are)
Even when my girls can't understand
I choose you as my man
But you take me as I am, my, my man

You're my girl
(My man)
You're my girl
(My man)
You're my lady
(My man)
You're my baby

When I was rockin' jelly and had a little belly
Who would-a ever thought, you'd think I was sexy?
I say it with an attitude, I admit I came off rude
But still you love me, I know I get on your nerves sometimes

And I don't know why, you take me as I am?
Even when my girls can't understand oh oh
I choose you as my man
(My man, yeah yeah)
'Cause you take me as I am
(Take me as I am)

You take me as I am, girl I'm a take you as you are
Even though my fam don't understand
(They can't understand no, no, no, no)
Why I put that rock up on your hand?
(Girl)
That's 'cause you take me as I am

You're my girl
(You're my man)
You're my girl
(You're my man)
You're my lady
(You're my baby)
You're my baby
(My honey)

You're the ocean that breathes that I feel
When I'm blowin' my trees alone
You're the sun that shines when the darkness strikes at night
You're the love of my life, you're my girl, you're my wife

You're mine, and I'm yours, you take me like I am
Wait a minute
Can't believe you take me as I am, am, am, no, oh
Even when they don't understand why you love me?
I choose you as my man, 'cause you take me as I am
(Take me as I am)

You take me as I am, girl I'm a take you as you are
Even though my fam don't understand
My people on the block, they don't understand, no, no
Why I put that rock up on your hand?
'Cause I take you as you are, you're a star

You're my girl
(My man)
You're my girl
(You're my man)
You're my lady
(You're my baby)
You're my baby
(My honey)
