  • They said change your name in Hollywood
    Say, hide your head since they may think you're no good
    But I ain't ever changing what my mama gave me
    I'm gonna live my life the way God made me

    Said the way God made me
    Yes, the way God me
    The way God me, the way God me
    Said the way God made me
    Yes, the way God me
    The way God me, the way God me

    They say you don't look like what we want
    Do you want me to dye my hair platinum blonde
    But I ain't ever gonna change what my mama gave me
    I'm gonna live my life the way God made me

    Said the way God made me
    Yes, the way God me
    The way God me, the way God me
    Said the way God made me
    Yes, the way God me
    The way God me, the way God me

    So I will not throw away traditions
    'Cause you lack in cultural visions
    I'm living my destiny the way God made me
    And I will not judge you 'cause you're different
    So my children see no difference
    This is our chance, chance to be free

    Said the way God made me
    Yes, the way God me
    The way God me, the way God me
    Said the way God made me
    Yes, the way God me
    The way God me, the way God me

    The way, said the way
    Yes, the way God me, the way God me
    Yes, the way God me, that's the way God me
    Yes, the way God me
    Yes, the way God me
    The way God me, the way God me
    Yes, the way God me Writer/s: ADAM DAVID MESSINGER, ADAM MESSINGER, ALEX TANAS, ALEXANDER TANASIJCZUK, BEN SPIVAK, MARK PELLIZZER, MARK RICHARD PELLIZZER, NASRI ATWEH, NASRI TONY ATWEH
