Album: THE PREACHER'S SON

Take Me As I Am Lyrics

(feat. Sharissa)

 [Wyclef]

 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

 

 [Sharissa]

 Yeah, this one goes out to my almond joy

 My banana that never split

 The one that stuck with me

 

 [Wyclef]

 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

 

 [Wyclef]

 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)

 

 [Sharissa (Wyclef)]

 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

 

 [Wyclef (Sharrissa)]

 You're my girl (my man)

 You're my girl (my man)

 You're my lady (my man)

 You're my baby

 

 [Sharissa]

 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

 

 [Sharissa]

 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)

 

 [Sharrissa]

 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

 

 [Wyclef (Sharrissa)]

 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)

 

 [Wyclef]

 You're the ocean that breathes that I feel when I'm blowing my trees alone

 

 [Sharissa]

 You're the sun that shines when the darkness strikes at night

 

 [Wyclef]

 You're the love of my life, you're my girl, you're my wife

 

 [Sharissa]

 You're mine, and I'm yours, you take me as I am

 Wait a minute

 

 [Sharissa (Wyclef)]

 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)

 

 [Wyclef]

 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

 

 [Wyclef (Sharrissa)]

 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)
