Seems like Gaga is a hypocrite or she's very conscious of the power of being a mega popstar.
Most of the lyrics are pretty straightforward. Gaga performed this in 2005 at NYU and this is her saying she is gonna be a big musician and inspire with her music, but these lyrics:
"Fame is our felony
We're so in love with it
Some superstars and masochists who don't know where to go
But the poets and the fighters of our time
Put down their weapons and their rhymes"
add a little mystery as she critiques the very kind of popstar people she ended up becoming.
Either she did the typical sell-out thing some musicians do or she believes she can sort of cheat the system by playing the game and slowly changing the game to fit her purpose and thus end up being one of "the poets and fighters of our time" over the "superstars and masochists who don't know where to go".
