Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Yeah, maybe I'ma get a little anxious
Maybe I'ma get a little shy
'Cause everybody's tryna be famous
And I'm just tryna find a place to hide (Oh)
All I wanna do is just hold somebody
But no one ever wants to get to know somebody
I don't even know how to explain this
I don't even think I'm gonna try
[Verse 2]
And that's okay
I promise myself one day
(Hey!)
[Verse 3]
I'ma tell 'em all
I'ma tell 'em all that you could either hate me or love me
But that's just the way I am
I'ma tell 'em all
I'ma tell 'em all that you could either hate me or love me
But that's just the way I am
[Verse 4]
That's just the way I am
That's just the way I am
That's just the way I am
That's just the way I am
[Verse 5]
Maybe I'ma get a little nervous
Maybe I don't go out anymore (Oh)
Feelin' like I really don't deserve this (-serve this)
Life ain't nothing like it was before (It was nothing like before)
'Cause all I wanna do is just hold somebody
But no one ever wants to get to know somebody
If you go and look under the surface (Surface)
Baby, I'm a little insecure
[Verse 6]
And that's okay (Baby, now, that's okay)
I promise myself one day (Hey!)
[Verse 7]
I'ma tell 'em all
I'ma tell 'em all that you could either hate me or love me
But that's just the way I am
I'ma tell 'em all (All)
I'ma tell 'em all that you could either hate me or love me (Hate me, love me)
But that's just the way I am
[Verse 8]
That's just the way I am (I am)
That's just the way I am (I am)
That's just the way I am (Baby, now)
That's just the way I am
[Verse 9]
I'ma tell 'em all (That's just the way I am)
I'ma tell 'em all that you could either hate me or love me
And that's just the way I am
[Verse 10]
Am, am
Yeah, this is what you wanted
Oh, this is what you wanted
I am, am, am (Oh)
Yeah, this is what you wanted
Oh, this is what you wanted all along (Oh)
[Verse 11]
Everybody's tryna be famous
And I'm just tryna find a place to hide
[Verse 12]
I'ma tell 'em all ('Em all)
I'ma tell 'em all that you could either hate me or love me
But that's just the way I am
I'ma tell 'em all ('Em all)
I'ma tell 'em all that you could either hate me or love me (Hate me, love me)
But that's just the way I am
[Verse 13]
That's just the way I am
That's just the way I am
That's just the way I am (Baby, now)
That's just the way I am
[Verse 14]
I'ma tell 'em all (That's just the way I am)
I'ma tell 'em all that you could either hate me or love me
But that's just the way I am
