Born This Way Lyrics

[Intro]
It doesn't matter if you love him
Or capital "H-I-M" (M, M, M, M)
Just put your paws up
'Cause you were born this way, baby

[Verse 1]
My mama told me when I was young
"We are all born superstars"
She rolled my hair and put my lipstick on
In the glass of her boudoir
"There's nothing wrong with loving who you are"
She said, "'Cause He made you perfect, babe"
So hold your head up, girl, and you'll go far
Listen to me when I say

[Chorus]
I'm beautiful in my way
'Cause God makes no mistakes
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way
Don't hide yourself in regret
Just love yourself and you're set
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way (Born this way)

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, there ain't no other way
Baby, I was born this way
Baby, I was born this way (Born this way)
Ooh, there ain't no other way
Baby, I was born this way
Right track, baby
I was born this way

[Interlude]
Don't be a drag, just be a queen
Don't be a drag, just be a queen
Don't be a drag, just be a queen
Don't be (Don't be, don't be)

[Verse 2]
Give yourself prudence and love your friends
Subway kid, rejoice your truth
In the religion of the insecure
I must be myself, respect my youth
A different lover is not a sin
Believe capital H-I-M, hey-hey-hey
I love my life, I love this record and
Mi amore vole fe yah (Same DNA)

[Chorus]
I'm beautiful in my way
'Cause God makes no mistakes
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way
Don't hide yourself in regret
Just love yourself and you're set
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, there ain't no other way
Baby, I was born this way
Baby, I was born this way (Born this way)
Ooh, there ain't no other way
Baby, I was born this way
Right track, baby
I was born this way

[Interlude]
(Way)
Don't be, don't be, don't be, d—
(Way)
Church

[Verse 3]
Don't be a drag, just be a queen
Whether you're broke or evergreen
You're black, white, beige, chola descent
You're Lebanese, you're Orient
Whether life's disabilities
Left you outcast, bullied or teased
Rejoice and love yourself today
'Cause baby, you were born this way

[Chorus]
No matter gay, straight, or bi
Lesbian, transgender life
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born to survive
No matter black, white, or beige
Chola or Orient made
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born to be brave!
I'm beautiful in my way
'Cause God makes no mistakes ('Cause God makes no mistakes)
I'm on the right track, baby (Right track, baby)
I was born this way (Born this way)
Don't hide yourself in regret
Just love yourself and you're set (Love yourself and you're set)
I'm on the right track, baby (Right track, baby)
I was born this way, yeah

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, there ain't no other way
Baby, I was born this way
Baby, I was born this way (Born this way)
Ooh, there ain't no other way
Baby, I was born this way
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way

[Outro]
I was born this way, hey (Hey)
I was born this way, hey (I was born this way, hey)
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way, hey (Born this way, hey)
I was born this way, hey (Hey)
I was born this way, hey (I was born this way, hey)
I'm on the right track, baby (Right track, baby)
I was born this way, hey
Same DNA (Hey, hey, hey, hey)
But born this way (Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)
Same DNA (Hey, hey, hey, hey)
But born this way (Hey, hey, hey)

But the song, it’s very literal and I said, “I want to write my freedom record. I want to write my this-is-who-the-fuck-I-am anthem,” but I don’t want it to be hidden in poetic wizardry and metaphors. I want it to be an attack, an assault on the issue because I think, especially in today’s music, ev...
