Take Me As I Am

LETRA

Take Me As I Am

Radiator says ninety-five
But I ain't felt a drop of heat all night
Here in this motel
There’s no telling me nothing

I come here five nights a week
To clean the toilets and change these sheets
My name’s Maggie Duran, baby ain't that something

If you want it, come and get it
If you want it, come and get it
But understand, you take me as I am

I know these corners, I know these streets
Curb-side prophet they’re yelling at me
He can save my soul for a drink and a dollar

Yeah, he's yelling about my tattoos
We all live with the scars we choose
They might hurt like hell
But they all make us stronger

If you want it, come and get it
If you want it, come and get it
But understand, you take me as I am

Slow to trust, but I'm quick to love
I wish too hard and I give too much
I ain't saying I'm perfect
But I promise I'm worth it

Now I'm standing here in front of you
Tell me boy, what you gonna do
My name's Maggie Duran, I said ain't that something

If you want it, come and get it
If you want it, come and get it
But understand

If you want it, come and get it
If you want it, come and get it
But understand, you take me as I am
