As I Am Lyrics


    Don't
    Tell me what's in
    Tell me how to write
    Don't tell me how to win
    This fight
    Isn't your life
    It sin't your right
    To take the only thing that's
    Mine
    Proven over time
    It's over your head
    Don't try to read between the
    Lines
    Are clearly defined
    Never lose sight of
    Something you believe in

    Takin' in the view from
    The outside
    Feeling like the underdog
    Watching through the
    Window I'm on the outside
    Living like the underdog

    I've been trying
    To justify you
    In the end
    I will just defy you

    To those who understand
    I extend my hand
    To the doubtful I demand
    Take me as I am

    Not under your command
    I know where I stand
    I won't change to fit your plan
    Take me as I am

    Still
    Running up hill
    Swimming against the current
    I wish I weren't so
    Fucked
    Feels like I'm stuck
    Lost in a sea of mediocrity
    "Slow down,
    You're thinking too much
    Where is your soul?"
    You can not touch
    The way I
    Play
    Or tell me what to say
    You're in the way
    Of all that I believe in

    Takin' in the view from
    The outside
    Feeling like the underdog
    Watching through the
    Window I'm on the outside
    Living like the underdog

    I've been wasting my breath
    On you
    Open minds will descend
    Upon you

    To those who understand
    I extend my hand
    To the doubtful I demand
    Take me as I am

    Not under your command
    I know where I stand
    I won't change to fit your plan
    Take me as I am

    To those who understand
    I extend my hand
    To the doubtful I demand
    Take me as I am

    Not under your command
    I know where I stand
    I won't change to fit your plan
    Take me as I am
