[Verse 1]
When the dust settles
And all of our battles are done
You're still here
You know me better
Than no one you read all my scars
Like a script
[Pre-Chorus]
Every beating I took along the ride
Was a blessing in disguise
And it hurt and I learned
When everything's been said and done
And I know that you're the only one
It was worth it, yeah, so worth it
I realise that I get out of hand
I don't even ask for you to understand
Mmm and sometimes whatever we do
We're damned
I can't apologize for being who I am
Ooh, ooh, I've done my reconciling
I'm over compromising
I need you to see this my way
[Chorus]
And love me as I am, ooh, ooh
Love me as I am
Love me as I am, ooh, ooh
Love me as I am
[Verse 2]
I was rough round the edges
I tried to get ahead just make sense
Of this world
I am still standing
And I've been demanding a lot
I got knocked down
[Pre-Chorus]
Every beating I took along the ride
Was a blessing in disguise
And it hurt and I learned
When everything's been said and done
And I know that you're the only one
It was worth it, yeah, so worth it
I realise that I get out of hand
I don't even ask for you to understand
Mmm and sometimes whatever we do
We're damned
I can't apologize for being who I am
Ooh, ooh, I've done my reconciling
I'm over compromising
I need you to see this my way
[Chorus]
And I love me as I am, ooh, ooh
Love me as I am
Love me as I am, ooh, ooh
Love me as I am
[Outro]
Won't you, please, love me?
Won't you, please, love me?
I want you to love me
I want you to love me
I want you to love me
Love me as I am
No, don't you give up on me
When the dust settles
And all of our battles are done
You're still here
You know me better
Than no one you read all my scars
Like a script
[Pre-Chorus]
Every beating I took along the ride
Was a blessing in disguise
And it hurt and I learned
When everything's been said and done
And I know that you're the only one
It was worth it, yeah, so worth it
I realise that I get out of hand
I don't even ask for you to understand
Mmm and sometimes whatever we do
We're damned
I can't apologize for being who I am
Ooh, ooh, I've done my reconciling
I'm over compromising
I need you to see this my way
[Chorus]
And love me as I am, ooh, ooh
Love me as I am
Love me as I am, ooh, ooh
Love me as I am
[Verse 2]
I was rough round the edges
I tried to get ahead just make sense
Of this world
I am still standing
And I've been demanding a lot
I got knocked down
[Pre-Chorus]
Every beating I took along the ride
Was a blessing in disguise
And it hurt and I learned
When everything's been said and done
And I know that you're the only one
It was worth it, yeah, so worth it
I realise that I get out of hand

I can't apologize for being who I am
Ooh, ooh, I've done my reconciling
I'm over compromising
I need you to see this my way
[Chorus]
And I love me as I am, ooh, ooh
Love me as I am
Love me as I am, ooh, ooh
Love me as I am
[Outro]
Won't you, please, love me?
Won't you, please, love me?
I want you to love me
I want you to love me
I want you to love me
Love me as I am
No, don't you give up on me
