Different People Lyrics by Amerie

In Love & War

2009

Don't say that you care, don't tell me how I should be
'Cause you know it ain't fair to go and try to fix me
You used to love my laugh, now you're sayin' I'm too loud
You used to love the way I dress, now I gotta tone it down
It's like you tryna change things that make me, me
But I can't help but be, be who I be
We can be different people
We can be different people
You gotta love me or just leave me, baby
It's who I am, it's who you are
Sometimes we won't see eye to eye
'Cause we're different people
But I gotta love you or just leave you, baby
It's who I am, it's who you are
You know that I care, you know I accept you
And that's what I don't share all the things I think you should do
You used to take me out, now you stay watching the game
For no reason you'd just send me flowers, now it's just holidays
You used to keep me guessing, now there's no mystery, no, no
But you can't help it, baby, you'll be who you'll be
We can be different people
We can be different people
You gotta love me or just leave me, baby
It's who I am, it's who you are
Sometimes we won't see eye to eye
'Cause we're different people
But I gotta love you or just leave you, baby
It's who I am, it's who you are
It's who we are, it's who we are
Babe, I couldn't try to and I shouldn't want to
I wouldn't want to change anything
It's who we are, it's who we are
I know that you're still with who you've been in love with
You shouldn't want me changin' nothing
We can be different people
We can be different people
You gotta love me or just leave me, baby
It's who I am, it's who you are
Sometimes we won't see eye to eye
'Cause we're different people
But I gotta love you or just leave you, baby
It's who I am, it's who you are, it's who we are
