Wyclef Jean Feat. Sharissa Take Me As I Am lyrics

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 almond joy
My banana that never split
The one that stuck with me
They call it [Incomprehensible]

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 cheating
But once I got caught
I send you a dozen 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
(Hmm, I'm a take you as you are)
Even when my girls can't understand
(They don't know
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 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, 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, 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
(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
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, ohh
Even when they don't understand, why you love me?
(I love you girl)
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
(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
