It Is What It Is

Even when I lose I'm winning
I'm on a cruise I'm driven
I'm tryna execute my demons
Hope I don't lose my spirit
I'm tryna abuse my gifts and
I'm putting in time I'm putting in work
Until the curse has lifted
I changed my course I'm drifting

But it is what it is
I don't need to explain what that means
Keep being fake yea I've seen what that brings
I've watched that movie we could re-enact scenes
She preed my skills she amazed at what she's seen
I got that spark I just need a kerosene
I've been this good yeah it's been in my genes
That's why she's tryna be in my jeans
Yeah
Working everyday and every week
My house a studio all I'm seeing is screens
I know there's a whole bunch of fish in the sea
But I'm the one fish that's swimming upstream
Yeah
I ain't even getting no sleep
Got a king sized bed and I think it needs a Queen
Chilling in the lounge with a cup I need six
Four Peng girls but they're not little mix
I'm from the gutter I'm talking Master Splinter
Someone's daughter's tryna cook me dinner
I'm ignorant I never knew defeat
My mama told me Noble you're a winner
I wake up early and go say my prayers
Cause Lord knows lately I'm a sinner
I feel like I'm a Midwife
'Cause when I work I always deliver
I was looking in the mirror and got star-struck
You would too if you've seen what I've seen
I preed them boys their goals and dreams
Ain't nobody really tryna be in that team
Get the bread like Hovis and spread it like Covid
Flow so sick I might need a vaccine
But it is what it is
Ain't nobody really do it like me

Even when I lose I'm winning
I'm on a cruise I'm driven
I'm tryna execute my demons
Hope I don't lose my spirit
I'm tryna abuse my gifts and
I'm putting in time I'm putting in work
Until the curse has lifted
I changed my course I'm drifting

I reached for the stars put my hands in the sky
Been on the wave I've been surfing the tide
I'm putting in work to get rid of my sighs
Watch on my wrist said I'm not out of time
Watch on my wrist said I'm here for a while
I need some braces to learn how to smile
Something we wish that's the reason to lie
Trust me I wish I could say my goodbyes
It is what it is and I know I'm getting what I wanna
Give me tranquillity I want nirvana
Flirting with someone's daughter and her Mother
You'd think we a Fed the way we undercover
We hotter than California in the summer
Hotter than tracks I'm making with my Brother
We step and we drip you'd better call a plumber
Been pulling my weight like how we pulling numbers
Skrr skrr
Swerve and go
Step to me you'll see
It's like anarchy
If I don't reach my dream
Ee ee ee
Then it's too early
Eee eee ee
You just sleep on me
Better not get cosy
Are you here for me
Or are they all ears 'cause they're nosy
It is what it is
They cap for glory
They say talk is cheap
How much for your story

Even when I lose I'm winning
Even when I lose I'm winning
I'm on a cruise I'm driven
Even when I lose I'm winning
