Christina Aguilera I Am song lyrics

I am timid and

I am oversensitive

I am a lioness

I am tired and defensive

You take me in your arms

And I fall into you

I have insecurities

You show me I am beautiful

Love me or leave me

Just take it or leave it

It's not that I'm needy

Just need you to see me

Take me, free me, see through to the core of me

Take me, free me, there will be no more pretending

I am temperamental and

I have imperfections and

I am emotional

I am unpredictable

I am naked

I am vulnerable

I am a woman

I am opening up to you

Love me or leave me

Just take it or leave it

It's not that I'm needy

Just need you to see me

Take me, free me, see through to the core of me

Take me, free me, there will be no more pretending

Now I stand before you with my heart in my hands

I'm asking you to take me just the way that I am

Please lay down your arms

Do you know me, make me feel safe from harm

Oooh just take me, free me, see through to the core of me

See through, take me, free me, there will be no more pretending

I am temperamental and

I have imperfections and

I am emotional

There'll be no more pretending
