Because I was born this way
 I got [bad word] thru my veins
 Ain't nobody gonna stop this train
 So hop on board, or get out the way
 Because I was born this way
 I got [bad word] thru my veins
 Ain't nobody gonna stop this train
 You can't stop us, we can't be stopped

 Ever since I was an infant, I spit it
 Ate mics, and rocked Lennon
 In first grade, I drank my juice with rocks in it
 Never looked down, 'cause up, had more stains in it,
 Always been about the heart, never cared who's winning'
 Ha!…I chase the light, like emcees on the wrong mic
 My blood was the wrong type, So I had to give my life
 And relearn, the minute that I felt real life
 I'd rather create, than follow
 [bad word] to the knife

 Because I was born this way
 I got [bad word] thru my veins
 Ain't nobody gonna stop this train
 So hop on board, or get out the way
 Because I was born this way
 I got [bad word] thru my veins
 Ain't nobody gonna stop this train
 You can't stop us, we can't be stopped

 Feel that smoke rise, to the sky
 Split, like a dollar sign
 Flip, when ya hear that beat, rip like it's dynamite
 Cold, like a winter street,
 Loud, 'cause I wanna be
 The mic is my weapon, so I spit this artillery
 Ha!…I chase the light, like emcees on the wrong mic
 My blood was the wrong type, So I had to give my life
 And relearn, the minute that I felt real life
 I'd rather create, than follow
 [bad word] to the knife

 Because I was born this way
 I got [bad word] thru my veins
 Ain't nobody gonna stop this train
 So hop on board, or get out the way
 Because I was born this way
 I got [bad word] thru my veins
 Ain't nobody gonna stop this train
 You can't stop us, we can't be stopped
