Walking through the crowd my way
On a day like others
My eyes are drawn to the old guy
Standing in the corner
But everyone just seemed to stare
'Cause he looks so different
But you could hear him lightly sing
If you just listen
Will you take me as I am
Lay down your doubts and fears
Will you take a moment walk with me
Go a mile in my shoes
Will you try to understand
I'm more than what you see (yeah, yeah)
Will you take me as I am
What's the worth of another brother
Different mother, different lives (different lives)
Why do we hurt each other
With these words we judge and analyze
Let's change the world we live today
Let's live more love, more hope, more faith
Join together one another
In a song of grace
Will you take me as I am
Lay down your doubts and fears
Will you take a moment walk with me
Go a mile in my shoes
Will you try to understand
I'm more than what you see (yeah, yeah)
Will you take me as I am
Will I be judged by the color of my skin
Or seen for the man that I truly am within
Will you despise me for my clothes and my fashion
'Cause I'm one of five on your scale of attraction
Don't you see it, it's gone 'cause you missed it
The measure of a man is not in his achievement (oh)
Don't be mistaken, I want to be a better man
But when I reach out will I find a helping hand
Can we see past what's in front of us
If we will try
To love a stranger like a brother
To know a joy like no other
Will you take me as I am
Lay down your doubts and fears
Will you take a moment walk with me
Go a mile in my shoes
Will you try to understand
I'm more than what you see (yeah, yeah)
Will you take me as I am
Will you take me as I am
