Diane Durrett Take Me As I Am lyrics

Objects in the mirror are closer than they appear
When you see in your looking glass
I'm your greatest fear / Who am I?
Can you answer the riddle of life?
Do you see what you hate in me
You find inside yourself? / Now all I ask is

(chorus)
Take me as I am
Don't punish me for being myself
Take me as I am
My weakness could be your strength
Take me as I am / As I am as I am

You tell me I'm nothin' but a tumbleweed

Whichever way the wind blows is where I'll be
But I am free to live the life I lead
I'm not gonna lose myself
Trying to be your somebody else / So

(repeat chorus)

Cause we walk the same earth
We feel the same sun
We can fall apart or stand as one
I reach out to you but all I can hear
Is the sound of your judgment bangin' in my ears
