Be As You Are Lyrics - The Truth - Mike Posner

Virgina Woolf and poetry 

No one seemed to notice me 

Being young was getting so old 

Cheap beer and Cigarettes 

Life was like a movie set 

And I seemed to be given no role 

But in times of trouble 

I can turn to my mother 

And I know that she don't understand 

So at age 18 

I cried to my mother 

And she told me, "young man"

"There are moments when you fall to the ground 

But you are stronger than you feel you are now 

You don't always have to speak so loud, no 

Just be as you are 

Life is not always a comfortable ride 

Everybody's got scars that they hide 

And everybody plays the fool sometimes, yeah 

Just be as you are" 

They played me on the radio 

And everything was changing, so 

I thought I was all the way grown 

But I can still remember in that cold November 

When I realized I'm all alone 

But in times of trouble 

I can turn to my mother 

And I know that she gon' understand 

So at age 22 

I cried to my mother 

And she told me, "young man" 

"There are moments when you fall to the ground 

But you are stronger than you feel you are now 

You don't always have to speak so loud, no 

Just be as you are 

It doesn't matter if you become some star 

Life is better when you open your heart 

You don't always have to act so hard, no 

Just be as you are" 

If I'm speaking truthfully 

I'm not who I used to be 

And I know some people might laugh 

Cause my music doesn't sound the same 

And my head's no longer shaved 

I'm worried if I'm on the right path 

But in times of trouble 

I can turn to my mother 

And I know that she gon' understand 

So at age 26 

I spoke to my mother 

And she told me, "young man" 

"There are moments when you fall to the ground 

But you are stronger than you feel you are now 

You don't always have to speak so loud, no 

Just be as you are 

It doesn't matter if you become some star 

Life is better when you open your heart 

You don't always have to act so hard, no 

Just be as you are" 

Be as you are.
