Cass Elliot
I Am Now (Live)
I am now
I am today
I won't live in the past
Like someone who's unwilling to pay
It was yours
Now it's mine
So don't tell me to stop
And I'll drink every drop of the wine
You see, it's my life to live
Whatever it turns out to be
And the lessons I've learned
Will be taught, by nobody but me
I can love, I can hate
But the one thing that I cannot do
Is to sit back and wait
While you talk
I will too
And the world be brighter
And better before I am through
Don't build the walls around me
For all of your wants can't be scaled
I'm not afraid of your fears
I know that my soul can't be jailеd
Yesterday was your day
And you lived it your way
Now it's my turn, yеs it's my turn
Got to have my turn
I am now, I am me, I am today
I won't live in the past, like the someone
Who's unwilling to pay
I am now, I am me, I am today
I won't live in the past, like the someone
Who's unwilling to pay
I am now, I am me, I am today
