Song Information
In an interview with E! news, Gaga stated that the name of the title was interchangeable. She had used both phrases in the song and they were both very good, so she decided to use both. She continued by saying that the song was about when she moved to downtown New York when she was 19.
The lyrics are about how when Gaga moved downtown, she was introduced to an entirely new way of thinking that was so different from the way she was taught. Up till then, iconic imagery had taught her her entire life to look at Jesus and religion a certain way. So she sees Black Jesus as an entirely new way of thinking, which she believed was caused by meeting new people and seeing new things.
She says that the Amen Fashion part of the song is about having a new way of seeing is as easy as changing your fashion.
I grew up in New York City
Since I was born on Broadway, baby
Moved downtown when I was just 19
To start a new life on the New York scene.
Put in on
Amen Fashion
Celebrate
Style your passion
Wear out your vision
Jesus is the new black
