Take Me as I Am

Take Me as I Am - Rina Sawayama Lyrics

[Chorus]

Every single day I fight another war

Every single night I feel more powerful

Well guess it's what it takes to live it my way

So the world will take me as I am



[Verse 1]

Don't underestimate me

Make me feel like I ain't okay

Your bullshit ain't fooling me

One man false economy

Underappreciated

Make me feel like I ain't okay

Your high praise ain't feeding me

One girl false autonomy



[Refrain]

Well guess it's what it takes to live it my way

So the world will take me as I–



[Verse 2]

Overcomplicating

Makes me feel like I ain't okay

You're waiting for me to fall

You're so forgettable

From how I understand it

Everybody thinks it's okay (Is it okay?)

To keep up the status quo

Well, that ain't no more



[Pre-Chorus]

So, this is the last time that I give you any more

(I don't think so, no, no, no)



[Chorus]

Every single day I fight another war

Every single night I feel more powerful

Every single day I fight another war

Every single night I feel more powerful

So, guess it's what it takes to live it my way

So the world will take me as I am



[Verse 3]

(Come on)

You try and conversate

When I don't want to hear you talking

Your bullshit ain't fooling me

One man false economy

Underappreciated

Make me feel like I ain't okay

Your high praise ain't feeding me

And that ain't no more (Let's go)



[Pre-Chorus]

So, this is the last time that I give you any more

(Every single day)



[Chorus]

Every single day I fight another war

Every single night I feel more powerful

Every single day I fight another war

Every single night I feel more powerful

So, guess it's what it takes to live it my way

So the world will take me as I am



[Bridge]

You think you're touching me

With your clichés I've heard before

You wanna turn back the time, make it rewind

I wanna be myself and I

Don't wanna sacrifice my life

So, let it go



[Chorus]

Every single day I fight another war

Every single night I feel more powerful

So, guess it's what it takes to live it my way

So the world will take me as I am

Well guess it's what it takes to live it my way

So the world will take me as I am
