AS I AM

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 isn'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 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 As I am As I am
