As I Am Lyrics
Artist(Band):Dream Theater
Review The Song (22)Print the Lyrics
Don't
Tell me what's in
Tell me how to write
Don't tell me how to win
This fight
Isn't your life
It isn't your right
To take the only thing that's
mine

Proven over time
It is over your head
Don't try to read between the
Lines
Are clearly defined
"Never lose sight of
Something you believe in"

Taking in the view from the outside
Feeling like the underdog
Watching through the window I'm on the outside
Living like the underdog

I've been trying to justify you
In the end I will just defy you

To those who understand, I extend my hand
To the doubtful I demand, take me as I am
Not under your command, I know where I stand
I won't change to fit your plan, Take me as I am

As I am

Still
Running uphill
Swimming against the current
I wish I weren't so
Fucked
Feels like I'm stuck
Lost in a sea of mediocrity

Slow down,
You're thinking too much
Where is your soul?
You cannot touch
The way I
Play
Or tell me what to say
You're in the way
Of all that I believe in

Taking in the view from the outside
Feeling like the underdog
Watching through the window I'm on the outside
Living like the underdog
I've been wasting my breath on you
Open minds will descend upon you

To those who understand, I extend my hand
To the doubtful I demand, take me as I am
Not under your command, I know where I stand
I won't change to fit your plan, take me as I am

To those who understand, I extend my hand
To the doubtful I demand, take me as I am
Not under your command, I know where I stand
I won't change to fit your plan, take me as I am

As I am

Yeah

As I am

Review about As I Am

Awesomeness | Reviewer: Risen | 7/24/09

This song is one of the best i've heard, because of the sound, and the message. Forme it's like telling people to stop trying to change you because they feel lke it is right for them. Myung pwns and the rest of dream theater pwns.



Kicks Ass!! | Reviewer: Danny Borboa | 1/14/09

Mike Potnoy is the man!!! Check out his performance in the studio to As I Am on You tube!
This song is not only the band saying, "Fuck You" to the record companies. Its also a rally song to all of us out there who dont give a shit about what other people are thinking or saying about us. Take me as I am is simply saying, "I am who I am and I dont give a rat's ass what you think"!



DT is the only best band in the world | Reviewer: Jordan | 8/2/08

This is such a powerful song. we all can relate to it. it's kinda like a "fuck you" song to the record company for telling them to make their songs shorter and cut back on the solos, as well as to their fans who want them to produce another record sounding like SFAM, which would hault them from progressing. the lyrics and the music is absolutely inhuman, and the way they incorporate petrucci, portnoy, and labrie into the singing is amazing. if you dislike this song, record, or dream theater in all, then you should die. no other words on that subject than die. the way myung does the intro is outstanding. the riffs are killer. this overwhelmed metallica. the solo is beyond god like. God herself had to have given petrucci, hell, all of dream theater their skill. portnoy raped on this song. he has raped everything he has ever done. my life, and surely everyone's who has heard this, has been changed.

God bless Dream Theater



Hey just letting you know. | Reviewer: Talon | 2/27/08

Hey i'm just letting you know the part you missed this goes last:
To those who understand, I extend my hand
To the doubtful I demand, take me as I am
Not under your command, I know where I stand
I won't change to fit your plan, take me as I am
As i am yeah.



Damn........ | Reviewer: Tk | 2/16/08

I agree with magic mushroom, I had a chick that completely fucked me over... although the song which was healing for me was from Octavarium "Never Enough". Heard that preformed live at the molson amphitheater and bam... perfect healing song XD

Yeah! | Reviewer: Nilsen | 9/25/07

To those who understand, I extend my hand
To the doubtful I demand, take me as I am
Not under your command, I know where I stand
I won't change to fit your plan, take me as I am
