It Is What It Is

It is what it is, it ain't what it ain't, it's gon be what it's gon be
That's how I look at life right now so I don't lose no sleep
Don't make no plans, it's in God hands, so I stay on my knees
Ain't worried bout what you got going, I'm too focused on me

It is what it is, and I'ma be straight, it's out of my control
Done met so many snakes, Medusa turned my heart to stone
I take it day by day cause tomorrow I could be gone
But only God knows, it's already been wrote

Aye aye aye aye
It is what it is, it is what it is, it is what it is, it is what it is
It is what it is, it is what it is, it is what it is, it is what it is
It is what it is, it is what it is, it is what it is, it is what it is

Aye aye aye
It is what it is, it is what it is, it is what it is, it is what it is
It is what it is, it is what it is, it is what it is, it is what it is
It is what it is, it is what it is, it is what it is, it is what it is

These the words I live by, this is my philosophy
Stack and pray, stay out the way, so Lord knows ain't no stopping me
Seen some folks that claim they solid turn around and flop on me
Heard my business in the streets, wonder how they got the drop on me

But it is what it is, you gotta keep it real
If you still stressing bout the past, then how you gon heal?
Didn't expect 12 to show no mercy but I'm glad they did
Couldn't let my mama get that call saying she lost her kid

I done lost some friends, I done made some foes
I done lost my mind, I done lost my soul
But thru it all I'll never fold
Can't complain, this the life I chose

I done took L's like the next man but I'm blessed so I can't get off track
Swear I done charged so much to the game, feel like it owe me back

It is what it is, it ain't what it ain't, it's gon be what it's gon be
That's how I look at life right now so I don't lose no sleep
Don't make no plans, it's in God hands, so I stay on my knees
Ain't worried bout what you got going, I'm too focused on me

It is what it is, and I'ma be straight, it's out of my control
Done met so many snakes, Medusa turned my heart to stone
I take it day by day cause tomorrow I could be gone
But only God knows, it's already been wrote

Aye aye aye aye
It is what it is, it is what it is, it is what it is, it is what it is
It is what it is, it is what it is, it is what it is, it is what it is
It is what it is, it is what it is, it is what it is, it is what it is

Aye aye aye
It is what it is, it is what it is, it is what it is, it is what it is
It is what it is, it is what it is, it is what it is, it is what it is
It is what it is, it is what it is, it is what it is, it is what it is
