Take Me as I Am è un brano interpretato e inciso da Mary J. Blige, contenuto nell'album The Breakthrough pubblicato nel 2005. Settimo lavoro in studio per l'artista di New York, ottiene ottimi riscontri di pubblico e di critica tanto da vincere, nel 2007, il Grammy Award come "Miglior album R&B dell'anno"! La canzone è il quarto singolo estratto dal disco e porta le firme di Jordan Suecof, Ezekiel Lewis, Candice Nelson, Keri Hilson e Thabiso Nkhereanye; il testo riflette sulla capacità di accettarsi per come siamo e quanto le scelte sbagliate del passato ci abbiano reso più forti.
