Charlie Puth - The Way I Am (Lyrics) [Verse 1] Maybe I'ma get a little anxious Maybe I'ma get a little shy Cause everybody's trying to be famous And I'm just trying to find a place to hide All I wanna do is just hold somebody, uh 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 [Hook] And that's ok I promise myself one day Hey! [Chorus] 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 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 2] 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 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 [Hook] And that's okay (baby and that's okay) I promised myself one day Hey!
