Monica “Here I Am” is VIBES FM #14 on R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart 2010.

Driven by grooving percussion, the slow-tempo, Ester Dean-penned ballad has Monica confessing to her new love (played by Songz) that her man “don’t love [her] like he used to,” and that she plans on leaving him for Trey.

“If you need to love somebody / Hey Baby, let me be that body / Here I Am Boy,” she then pleads, as Songz replies, “If I touch you / If I kiss you / If I squeeze you…Girl if you let me in, I’ll do what he never did.”

‘Here I Am’ follows the album’s other singles, ‘Love All Over Me,’ and ‘Everything to Me.’ Go to AOL Radio’s New R&B First station to listen to ‘Here I Am.’
