This really bothers me. These people don’t understand why she put these words in her song. She’s trying to show everyone that these derogatory slurs are really just words and nothing more. Whether you are Chola or Orient, so what? If people call you that, then so be it. Those words do not define who you are and never will. That’s what she’s trying to say… Don’t let them define you, because you were BORN THIS WAY.
“Whether you’re broke or evergreen
You’re black, white, beige, chola descent
You’re lebanese, you’re orient
Whether life’s disabilities
Left you outcast, bullied, or teased
Rejoice and love yourself today
‘Cause baby you were born this way”
