I've been messed up, tossed around I've been flying high just to get knocked down Always kept my feet on solid ground I'm a sinner, I'm a saint I've been creeping down the fast lane I'll rush this life on my own pace I'll race you down the highway So beat me if you can Life's the game that I play That's the way I am That's the way life goes This is who I wanna be And that's the way it's gonna be That's the way I am Baby this I know In all of this insanity I'm everything I wanna be That's the way I am (That's the way I am) That's the way I am (That's the way I am) I'm known to be wrong when I'm right I'm colorful in black and white I'm a beam of sunshine in the night I'm a slob, I'm a sleaze I can make fire freeze I come and go just as I please So baby this is my way To make you understand Life's the game that I play That's the way I am That's the way life goes This is who I wanna be And that's the way it's gonna be That's the way I am Baby this I know In all of this insanity I'm everything I wanna be That's the way I am (That's the way I am) That's the way I am (That's the way I am)
