[Intro:]
It doesn't matter if you love him, or capital H-I-M
'cause you were born this way, baby
[Verse:]
My mama told me when I was young
She rolled my hair and put my lipstick on
"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,
[Chorus:]
Just love yourself and you're set
[Post-chorus:]
Don't be a drag ‒ just be a queen [x3]
[Verse:]
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 (Love needs faith)
[Repeat chorus + post-chorus]
[Bridge:]
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
Left you outcast, bullied, or teased
Rejoice and love yourself today
'cause baby you were born this way
No matter gay, straight, or bi,
No matter black, white or beige
[Repeat chorus + post-chorus]
[Fade away:]
