Just As I Am

What it takes to be a man
Do I fit your image yet?
Is this really who I am?
Am I someone you’ll forget?
I should’ve died while I was young
It’s a shame that my name
Carries weight here
Bad blood between us dried out
I’ll play safe to save face
Just as I am
Jesus Christ won’t understand
Feel the scars inside my hands
I once was lost now I’m found
Sinners, saints are all the same
I should’ve died while I was young
It’s a shame that my name
Carries weight here
Bad blood between us dried out
I’ll play safe to save face
Just as I am
I’d die a thousand times
Over to feel alive
I lost faith in you before I was ready
I blame the father, son
The church and holy Ghost
But mainly myself for all the way I turned out
