Anyone know what song this is?

I am looking for a song, here are some of the lyrics:

The lyrics go something like this:

chorus:

If you love me, you gotta take me as I am,

cause i've accepted you for what you are.

If you need me, try to understand,

don't try to change me, love me as I am.

some other lyrics:

You've been trying to make me over,

the way I walk, the way I wear my hair.

if changing me's what's on your mind,

girl it's just a waste of time.

this was a reggae song, it might have been remade, but the version I had was done in the 90's.

I've looked everywhere, can't find it, or who sung it. Please any help would be appreciated!

Anyone know what song this is?

Otis Redding - A Waste Of Time Lyrics

Hi there

Should I've asked you what's your name?

Should you've asked me the same?

But dig

Let's not be wasting our time

Let's not lead each other blind

If you don't want me

My heart can't strain, yeah, another time

There's only 24 hours in a day

And that don't leave much time to play

I don't dig that no way, honey

Coz my heart can't take it, no, another day

Listen to me honey

I've been told by many different girls

'Otis I love you, oh boy'

They tell me this from the bottom of their soul

But they didn't mean it

Listen, I...

I've been let down, yo

Hit the ground

And called the biggest, the biggest fool

Biggest fool ever walked on this ground

Listen

I can't stand it, no no no no,

To be built up, way on up, and let down

Being loved, yo, is home in my mind

I don't like that

I like for it to be from the heart

And I found out later on I was wasting my time

Just a waste of time yeah

Somebody understand what I'm saying

What I say

It's just a waste of time

If you don't want me mama

Don't just leave me hanging

Don't just let me waste my time, no no

Somebody

Somebody gotta get the message to me

No I don't wanna...
