VERSE 1

Why is that that you could only see the worst in me?

I swear sometimes I feel like it nurtures me

But to keep it all real is kinda hurtin' me

I could say I'm done with it, but it lurks in me

So I'm a just tell myself that it works for me

Take a real long drive in the Mer-ce-des

And I might pop a couple of them per-ca-ces

Yeah that'll make me transform to Hercules

CHORUS

(I love who I am)

Here I am, here I am, so tell me, cause I am

Here I am, here I am, so tell me, cause I am

Here I am, here I am, so tell me, cause I am

VERSE 2

I swear to God, man, everything in life is old

And the only thing that change is the price of gold

Even in the afterlife I'm a fight your soul

Cause the second time around I'll be twice as grown

So do you take me to be who I am?

To have and to hold till death do us part

Cause if not it's just best we both part

Cause how am I supposed to finish what you start?

You got me thinkin' twice to just breathe

Then you say I won't survive if I leave

But I got a couple of tricks up my sleeve

I no longer need your attention, at ease

It's a joke, it's a game,

Why am I still keeping score?

I'm in pain, I'm ashamed

I'm a woman, hear me roar (2x)

Now it's a joke, it's a game,

Why am i still keeping score?

I'm in pain, I'm ashamed

I'm a woman, hear me roar (2x)

CHORUS

(I love who I am)

Here I am, here I am, so take me as I am
