It Is What It Is
You can see what you want to
You can be who want to
Just never give up
You can hear what you want
You can feel what you want to
Just never give up
Some hate 'cause you're blacker
Some hate 'cause you're browner
You're never enough
People call you mother hipster
Urban coloniser
Sometimes you need to break your life
To feel alive
Sometimes you need
To kill your life to come alive
Sometimes you need
To change it up to move it on
Sometimes you need
Kiss kiss who you want to
Love love who you want to
Slower better
And better to remember your passion minister
Wherever whenever
Flowers to your mother
Flowers to your soldiers
The more the better
People better get wiser
Stop judging each other
Sometimes you need to break your life
To feel alive
Sometimes you need
To kill your life to come alive
Sometimes you need
To change it up to move it on
Sometimes you need
It is what is
It is what is
It is what is
It is what is
The bigger bigger spirit flows (it flows and flows and grows)
The bigger bigger spirit flows (it flows and flows and grows)
It reunites you with your own (it flows and flows and grows)
It reunites you with your own (it flows and flows and grows)
The bigger bigger spirit flows (it flows and flows and grows)
The bigger bigger spirit flows (it flows and flows and grows)
Sometimes you need to break your life
To feel alive
Sometimes you need
To kill your life to come alive
Sometimes you need
To change it up to move it on
Sometimes you need to move it on
Sometimes!
Sometimes!
Sometimes!
Sometimes! you need
You can be who want to
Just never give up
You can hear what you want
You can feel what you want to
Just never give up
Some hate 'cause you're blacker
Some hate 'cause you're browner
You're never enough
People call you mother hipster
Urban coloniser
Sometimes you need to break your life
To feel alive
Sometimes you need
To kill your life to come alive
Sometimes you need
To change it up to move it on

Slower better

It is what is
The bigger bigger spirit flows (it flows and flows and grows)
The bigger bigger spirit flows (it flows and flows and grows)
It reunites you with your own (it flows and flows and grows)
It reunites you with your own (it flows and flows and grows)

To feel alive
Sometimes you need
To kill your life to come alive
Sometimes you need
To change it up to move it on
Sometimes you need to move it on
Sometimes!
Sometimes!
Sometimes!
Sometimes! you need
