I am as I am
I think it doesn't sound strange
If I don't want to be changed
But... just to be as I am.
I often hear some people say:
You ought, you should, you must.
You should work hard
And do everything fast.
But...I am thankful to the Lord
And take it as a reward
To be as I am.
There are some people
Who want to meet me
They say they need me
But...most of them greet me
As I am not.
I do not blame anyone,
I do not complain,
But...there is something
I would like to remain:
To be as I am.
I can forgive,
But... would like to be forgiven.
I can believe,
But... would like to be believed.
I can love,
But... would like to be loved.
I can understand,
But... would like to be understood
At any state of my mood.
And...to be as I am.
