H.E.R. - As I Am Lyrics

H.E.R. Lyrics

"As I Am"

It's like the morning time
Don't wanna wake up I
Just wanna stay in bed
But if I'm next to you
I'm lookin' forward to
Just layin' in this bed

Ooh, that never gets old
Promise you'll never let go
I don't want no one else
So we should be chillin' back
Ain't nothin' wrong with that
So tell me that, tell me that

Tell me I'm the best, I am
I'll be feelin' like, yes, I am, I am
You know I'm the best, I am
You'd be a fool to not take me as I am
Tell me I'm the best, I am
I'll be feelin' like, yes, I am, I am
You know I'm the best, I am
You'd be a fool to not take me as I am

You're like the sweetest thing I know
Like my favorite Lauryn song
And I need you really bad (oh, yeah)
Don't take me for granted
You'll be regretting it
Oh, I should be your last, ooh yeah

Ooh, that never gets old
Promise you'll never let go
Grass ain't green nowhere else
So we should be chillin' back
Ain't nothin' wrong with that
So tell me that, tell me that

Tell me I'm the best, I am (I am)
I'll be feelin' like, yes, I am, I am
You know I'm the best, I am
You'd be a fool to not take me as I am
Tell me I'm the best, I am
I'll be feelin' like, yes, I am, I am
You know I'm the best, I am
You'd be a fool to not take me as I am, I am

I am
Take me, take me

Tell me I'm the best, I am (I am)
I'll be feelin' like, yes, I am, I am
You know I'm the best, I am
You'd be a fool to not take me as I am
Tell me I'm the best, I am
I'll be feelin' like, yes, I am, I am
You know I'm the best, I am
You'd be a fool to not take me as I am, I am

The protagonist of this song wants to love his/her partner wholeheartedly and wants him/her to stay together forever. They also should accept each other the way they are and treat each other as the best persons in the world.

The line "Like my favorite Lauryn song" is a nod to Lauryn Hill who is one of the favourite artists for H.E.R.
