Some people know what they want to be 
Some people see what they want to see 
Everyday needs some kind of dream 
But the complexities of life escape to an ideal scene, yeah 

People try to tell you how to live your life 
Let the blind lead the blind 
Well, that's all right 
So make up your mind 
The fool or the wise 
There are things in this life 
Which you can't compromise 

Break away 
And take the time to know your mind 
And leave it all behind you 
And say 
That's the way I am 

Yeah I was born this way 
Can't you see it in my eyes 
Yeah, heah, heah 
Oh, I was born this way 
Can't you feel it in your heart 
Yeah, heah, heah, oh 

It's not always easy to disagree 
Don't make excuses for what you see 
There's one thing in life 
I have no doubt 
You're on the way up 
On the way out, baby, oh 

Some people see what's gonna be 
But they hide in a corner 
From reality 
Sometimes you're up 
And sometimes you're down 
You can't spend your whole life 
Just fooling around 

Break away 
And take the time to break the ties 
And leave it all behind you and say 
That's the way I am 

Yeah I was born this way 
Can't you see it in my eyes 
Yeah, heah, heah 
Oh, I was born this way 
Can't you feel it in your heart and say 
Yeah, heah, heah, oh 

In this world 
There's a love that's unspoken 
Letting go 
Reaching out 
Then it's time to search your heart 
And stop, it's you 
Learn to love yourself 
Respect yourself 
Say that's the way I am 

Say, I was born this way 
Yeah, yeah, why
