As I Am

As the sun beats down my neck

My forehead beads up in sweat

And the earth that I till won't conceive

I go about my day

Knowing all will pass away

In the end, I will remain just as I am

Yet, and still I'm holding on to you

It happens all the time

In the smoke rings of my mind

I am famished in this field where I stand

Even with all of the stress

You're my love and happiness

But in the end, I will remain just as I am

But yet, and still I'm holding on to you

Nothing left to do but receive

How am I supposed to make it through

When the reason for my work, you don't believe?

It happens all the time

But in the end, I will remain just as I am

Yet, and still I'm holding on to you

Nothing left to do but receive

How am I supposed to make it through
