chris jewson – it is what it is lyrics
part i
[intro]
a year p-ssed as a shift in the vision was reconsidering
when i had realized people out the city, they were listening
locked and loaded, -rs-nal ready – click clack pow
and an ego saying “fans, they’re with me! it’s that sound!”
[hook]
i don’t even think they want to see us be successful
and they prayed to see a downfall, but it wasn’t in the schedule
so i gotta let ‘em go, let ‘em know we’re really doing it
and if you don’t feel under pressure, know who’s losing in the end
‘cause every day that p-sses, yo, the future’s looking promising
doors that want to close, well, we’re grinning, about to knock them in
just a new reminder if you’re trying to find out where we’re at
a bitter pill to swallow, but you know you’ve gotta stomach that
[verse 1]
people say they want to go, want to go and “get that”
an ego blown, nothing shown, self-provided mishap
status quo attract the average joe, like a tourist trip
putting up a notice, we ain’t with that!
put myself into the market, mark it like a checkpoint
checkpoints growing, a triple threat like steph points
personality, and the ethic, those surrounding me
i’m on the balcony, pondering, my conscience telling me that
[interlude]
people gon’ complain, i said it is what it is
they ain’t as focused to attain, i said it is what it is
if you ain’t bout it, then reroute it, better get with the sh-t
i don’t see nothing but the talking coming out of your lips
people gon’ complain, i said it is what it is
they ain’t as focused to attain, i said it is what it is
if you ain’t bout it, then reroute it, better get with the sh-t
‘cause all the small talk’s nothing when reality hits
i said that
[hook]
i don’t even think they want to see us be successful
and they the prayed to see a downfall, but it wasn’t in the schedule
so i gotta let ‘em go, let ‘em know we’re really doing it
and if you don’t feel under pressure, know who’s losing in the end
cause every day that p-sses, yo, the future’s looking promising
doors that want to close, well, we’re grinning, about to knock them in
just a new reminder if you’re trying to find out where we’re at
a bitter pill to swallow, but you know you’ve gotta stomach that
part ii
[adlibs]
gotta stomach that
yo, devinci k!lled this sh-t
[verse 2]
name someone else that’s more motivated
someone else with the potent flavor
then -ssemble the swords and pen ‘em in order
you know the saying
felt a menace, galore
don’t question, i’ll kick in the door
the breaks, it’s unfortunate
and “f” y’all, like reports from the lower grades
built a fortress, it’s been important
quick to form and y’all been distorted
hit alarms and go to rage, a bitter storm
‘cause we’ve been enormous
bit a flow like we didn’t notice
hit the jack and they hit the road
try to capture as the stature breaks the gl-ss
and continues growing
drop a smash and go in provoking
live the past? no, it’s in the moment
but the pattern’s acting up, my actions stuck
but i’m feeling focused
like the seahawks with marshawn
if you don’t see with the lights on
then one bad call, you don’t see to p-ss ball
then the fourth quarter drive ain’t nothing when you blow it
and i’m patiently waiting
speaking on what i’ve got inside my notebook
i’m patient, creating, while try separating
from people complaining & say it’s for no good
i waited, now i’m putting into action
and the fame ain’t the goal if we racing for that
and i thought of the past, and i coughed and i p-ssed
and i’m moving along, ‘cause there’s no changing that
i’ve been tryna live it, making moves that’s full of optimism
kept it on the dl, so when people ask, i’m nodding, grinning
brush it off like it’s for nothing, repeat all of the lessons learned
empower them, and improving on
‘til it’s paying off, that’s rest -ssured
said it is what it is, what it is, what it is, what it isn’t
y’all ain’t popping it off
said it is what it is, what it is, what it is, what it isn’t
put those thoughts in a box
woah, woah, woah
foreshadowing
i saw that somebody commented
“don’t rest on your laurels”
took it and pondered it
ain’t about what a novice is
here i am going off again
cause when, you, hear, these, strings
you know what song it is
hear you and they pausing it
i’m tryna keep it positive
but the way y’all skating by just like you’re p-rod
y’all are rocking switch
don’t get it? put some thought to it
can kick it like the soccer kids
but not until it’s paris, so provocative
took 10 days, i’m chancing it
karma watch y’all miss your mark
and i work those plays, no brandishing
i stay post-game, y’all fall apart
rather build them up than tear them down, though
found my nitch and i’ll be around, though
ready for it, i”m as set as it is
word to my clique, said it is what it is
[dash d.u.b outro]
“you know, it’s just the way you approach and look at challenges and whatnot, when things aren’t going your way. you know you can stop, you can go the other way or you can figure out a way around it, and we’re in the process – we’re trying to find a way around it. it is what it is, so, the movement’s not stopping, it’s actually only going to get bigger.”
