Diggy Simmons - As I Am (feat. Shianne Phillips) lyrics

[Intro:] Take me as I am Or you can have nothing Nothing at all [Verse 1:] Never understood why Discrimination existed Amongst us people when All of us wanted to be Taken equal not for the Color of our skin or the Fact that we fit in criteria Should be based of whats in The heart mind and soul and where We want to go cause if we caught In the past how we gonna reach our goals People be so concerned about the cons Instead of the pros that the preconceived Notations be blocking out of my flows They be acting like they know so they real Quick to throw it out to term about a kid Or the numbers in his bank account I'd Appreciate it if you listen then open ya Mouth feel alot better if you knew what You was talking 'bout just a youngin Grindin feeling inside that he hasn't Got his point across after he moved his Tums ? tellin people he's a normal kid Following dreams aposed to [Chorus:] So why don't you take me As I am or you can have nothing at all So take me as I am or have nothing at all [Verse 2:] Just looking around at all the people That's around no of em was with me though Months ago but tellin me now the way I should go or the things that I should put Out when its expression to me you can't tell Me how the ways the ropes or being the D- I- double g - Y the little n***a that's known to be fly But alot of the time he just gotta swallow His pride despite of all the people that's Making him feel deprived of a fair shot just Because of where he came from labeling What I am when you ain't even hear a taste of ? I done heard it all so ya 2 cents won't hurt none And I know that I'ma keep going with it And I know the ridicule I'm rolling with it as long As I'm taking for who I am and where I'm going That's whats important to my time [Chorus:] So why don't you take me As I am or you can have nothing at all So take me as I am or have nothing at all
