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,
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/
