I've been messed up, tossed around
I've been flying high, just to get knocked down
I 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, at my own pace

I'll race you down the highway
So beat me, if you can
Life's the game, that i play

{Chorus}
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
And baby, this I know
In all of this insanity
I'm everything, I wanna be
That's the way I am
Yeah!
That's the way I am

I'm known to be wrong, when I'm right
I'm coloufull, in black and white
I'm a beam of sunshine in the night
I'm a snob, I'm a sleaze
I can make a 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's I play

{Chorus}
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
And baby, this I know
In all of this insanity
I'm everything, I wanna be
That's the way I am
Yeah!
That's the way I am

I've been messed up, tossed around
I've been flying high, just to get knocked down
I 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, at my own pace

{Chorus}
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
And baby, this I know
In all of this insanity
I'm everything, I wanna be
That's the way I am
Yeah!
That's the way I am

I've been messed up, tossed around
I've been knocked down
The rest is the way life is now
That's the way I am
