Here I Am

Why is it that you could only see the worst in me? I swear, sometimes, it feel like it nurtures me But to keep it all real, it's kinda hurtin' me I could say I'm done with it, but it lurks in me So I'ma just tell myself that it works for me Take a real long drive in the Mercedes And I might pop a couple of them Percoce's Yeah, that'll make me transform to Hercules I am who I am I am, woo Here I am, here I am So take me as I am Here I am, here I am So take me as I am Here I am, here I am So take me as I am I am who I am I am, woo I swear to God, man, everything in life is old And the only thing that changed is the price of gold Even in the afterlife, I'ma fight your soul 'Cause the second time around, I'll be twice as bold So do you take me to be who I am? To have and to hold, 'til 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 (I am) Then you say I won't survive if I leave (who I am) But I got a couple of tricks up my sleeve (ah) 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 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 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 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 (Here I am) Here I am, here I am So take me as I am --- Here I Am - Nicki Minaj
