Lyrics Wyclef Jean

Wyclef Jean

Take Me As I Am

I wanna send this one out to my vanilla ice-cream chocolate pudding 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 doing our thing

I know I did a little cheating

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 rocking jelly and had a little belly

Who woulda 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

I choose you as my man (my man, 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 blowing 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 as 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)
