Because I was born this way

I got lightning running 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 lightning running 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

Welcome to the knife

Because I was born this way

I got lightning running 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 lightning running 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

Welcome to the knife

Because I was born this way

I got lightning running 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 lightning running thru my veins

Ain't nobody gonna stop this train

You can't stop us, we can't be stopped

Let's go, Hands up in the sky,

Hands up you can learn to fly

Hands up in the sky,

Hands up you can learn to fly

Put 'em up, Hands up in the sky,

Hands up you can learn to fly

Hands up in the sky,

Hands up you can learn to fly

Hands up in the sky,

Hands up you can learn to fly

Hands up in the sky,

Hands up you can learn to fly

Put them hands up in the sky,

Hands up you can learn to fly

So hop on board or get out the way

Because I was born this way

I got lightning running through my veins

Ain't nobody gonna stop this train

So hop on board or get out the way'

Cause I was born this way

I got lightning running through my veins

Ain't nobody gonna stop this train

You can't stop us we can't be stopped
