It Is What It Is Lyrics

Iâ??m hearinâ?? screams and they sayinâ?? we sold out
But Iâ??m hearinâ?? screams from the stands cause we sold out, itâ??s so loud
I got one life so I spend time tryna live 'til the next one
If you donâ??t like it, cool
It is what it is, it is what it is
It is what it is, it is what it is
My plate too full to sample that dish
It is what it is, it is what it is
Iâ??m handlin' biz, it is what it is
It is what it is, it is what it is

Some like, "I ainâ??t really feelin' that bruh
I ainâ??t with religious rap, bruh"
Some sayin' it is devil rap
Illuminati-on-another-level rap
Fell flat from heaven went to hell and back, huh?
A lot of radio ainâ??t givin' no play, but itâ??s ok
Cause my day one's been A-1
Before the co-signs and the pros came
Where you been, been boy, boy?
You ainâ??t been keepin' up
Church Clothes 1 and 2, then Anomaly
You probably need to turn your speakers up
And now Iâ??m on my third tape
And I just might drop it on a Thursday
So tell the industry and my enemy
That your man wouldnâ??t follow in they rules in the first place
Thirty plus in the residential
In the truck feelinâ?? presidential
With my girl lookinâ?? detrimental
Killin' anything tryna to be a side piece out my mental
Outta your mind
You thinkinâ?? Iâ??m leavinâ?? my baby by marchinâ?? for dimes?
You'll get that curve, you way out of line
Gave her that rock, Iâ??m stayinâ?? with mine
I keep the huddle mad tight, too many players I donâ??t trust now
You wasnâ??t with me on the 4th down, huh?
Then you can miss me when I touchdown
And thatâ??s no shade, no shade
Itâ??s just those games, I donâ??t play
Iâ??m gettinâ?? wiser with more age
And realizinâ?? some gonna hate
And thatâ??s ok

Iâ??m hearinâ?? screams and they sayinâ?? we sold out
But Iâ??m hearinâ?? screams from the stands cause we sold out, itâ??s so loud
I got one life so I spend time tryna live 'til the next one
If you donâ??t like it, cool
It is what it is, it is what it is
It is what it is, it is what it is
My plate too full to sample that dish
It is what it is, it is what it is
Iâ??m handlin' biz, it is what it is
It is what it is, it is what it is

Hold up
Let me get a minute from the flexinâ??
Foreign cars and the million dollar jets
And futuristic clothes, feelinâ?? like a Jetson
Cause keep it trill, it ainâ??t really that impressive
Blessed, but I ainâ??t frontinâ?? with the Grammys or the fame
Iâ??m just stuntinâ?? with my family unashamed
And cats say, "Crae, you done got it all
In the gym workin' hard, you should show it off!"
Nah, that ainâ??t never been my forte
"Pride come before the fall", what the Word say
And Iâ??ve been eatinâ?? off the wordplay
Working hard on the lyrics that the world play
Remember where I came from in the first place
Itâ??s all a gift, every breath is a birthday
So I spend time tryna find all of these souls lost
Cause itâ??s a wasted time if I got it all and they souls lost
I ainâ??t tryna to ball
If thatâ??s what you feel then your goals off
Itâ??s a different game tryna get this truth
Put you on and then go off
So, yeah, I may swag at award shows
Get some jet lag from a tour show
Keep a couple abs on my torso
But none of that is gon' matter when the horn blow
I ainâ??t tryna front for them flashinâ?? lights
Man they had us, life is a gift
So if last night was my last night, them Iâ??m good
It is what it is

Iâ??m hearinâ?? screams and they sayinâ?? we sold out
But Iâ??m hearinâ?? screams from the stands cause we sold out, itâ??s so loud
I got one life so I spend time tryna live 'til the next one
If you donâ??t like it, cool
It is what it is, it is what it is
It is what it is, it is what it is
My plate too full to sample that dish
It is what it is, it is what it is
Iâ??m handlin' biz, it is what it is
It is what it is, it is what it is
