It Is What It Is

by Metro Station

Night niggaz need 2 get they mind rite
2 get signed niggaz probably take they mom life
Things people do just 2 get in the rhyme life
But they each your zone
It is what it is
Man understand this
Their is a big difference between advantage and avanquish
The alogo and the mercialago
I aint gotta lie yo
It is what it is
If u see me wit some niggaz they all grimy
I put time in time diamonds all shiny
Paid a 100 grand for a chain that cost 90
And let them keep the change
It is what it is
And every song niggaz doin the work
Talkin about a million niggaz that they willin 2 murk
But how many niggaz u gon kill in a verse
U gotta convince me dog
It is what it is
My squad luv me cause i dont ride dick
U gotta keep it real wit the niggaz u ride wit
Ladies luv me cause im cool as todd smith
So hide yo chick
It is what it is
If u a skinny woman than thats thorough
But if uz a big woman i got ur back girl
Fuck all them niggaz that consider u fat girl
U aint gotta lose weight
It is what it is
All im makin is more hits
But i was drunk wen i came in2 the booth 2 record this
Swizz sed cass u gotta think of the chorus
But i dont need no hook
It is what it is
My worse verse hot as ur best rhyme
Damn i cant think of the next line
But fuck it ill remember it next time
Cause im compressed for time
It is what it is
These fake niggaz would strait front
I did 2 county bids but aint been upstate once
For a murder charge i only did 8 months
My lawyer the truth
It is what it is
U aint gotta like it but u gotta respect it
Theirs things in the past that u upset wit
But i woundnt change nuttin i dont regret shit
We all make mistakes
It is what it is
Cause government dont do shit for u
But send u to war man they tryin to destroy u
The president tryin 2 get to all u
He worse than sadam
It is what it is
They should put my picture next 2 the definition of hip hop
But im not getting no recognition from dick jocks
Even sum of the best ammiting that my shit hot
Beside nas im the best that did it next 2 big ahh
Niggaz aint want it pun he did it big
Pac was 1 of the best so give that kid props
Rakim & g-rap them niggaz all that
If u aint ll or that nigga jigga den fall back
Im true 2 dis i aint new 2 dis i do this shit
If u aint snoop kiss or ludacris
Den u get dissed
Dis cass i dont care if u niggaz mad
If u aint my nigga fab ill get in dat ass
U aint x or sp dont test me
If u aint nelly or joe crack
U no latch
U aint nore or sheech louch
Ur weak dude
If he aint busta or b-mack
Den he wack
If he aint wayne or flip dog
They shit soft
Shane eve lil kim
They chick soft
I been fuckin wit jd since kriss kross
Except me, chris tip and rick ross
Any nigga outass,
Wit juve and outkast
Wit dipset and bone thugs
Get shown luv
A lotta niggaz talk greasy in dey rhymez
But if u aint jeezy or reakon
Den stay calm
Caus the role niggaz playin iz fake
If u aint game or kanye den start playin the safe
Any thing i say now ill say in ur face
So thats that
Stay in ur place
It is what it is

It Is What It Is

by Josh Turner

I was only looking for a shortcut home
But it's complicated
So complicated
Somewhere in this city is a road I know
Where we could make it
But maybe there's no making it now
Too long we've been denying
Now we're both tired of trying
We hit a wall and we can't get over it
Nothing to relive
It's water under the bridge
You said it, I get it
I guess it is what it is
I was only trying to bury the pain
But I made you cry and I can't stop the crying
Was only trying to save me
But I lost you again
Now there's only lying
Wish I could say it's only me
Too long we've been denying
Now we're both tired of trying
We hit a wall and we can't get over it
Nothing to relive
It's water under the bridge
You said it, I get it
I guess it is what it is
Here it comes ready or not
We both found out it's not how we thought
That it would be, how it would be
If the time could turn us around
What once was lost may be found
For you and me, for you and me
Too long we've been denying
Now we're both tired of trying
We hit a wall and we can't get over it
Nothing to relive
It's water under the bridge
You said it, I get it
I guess it is what it is
I was only looking for a shortcut home
But it's complicated
So complicated

It Is What It Is

by The Beatles

[Intro: Esoteric, Planetary]
It's vinyl thug music, man
I call a spade a spade, it just is what it is <- Jay-Z
7L...Yo, Planet', set it off, daddy
It's Outerspace in this bitch, man (Uh-huh) (Yeah)
My man TZR in that muthafuckin' hit house (Word up)
We just touched ground in Boston, man (Yo)
Let's do this
[Verse 1: Planetary]
I'm the wizard of wordplay
I spit paragraphs in absurd ways
I'm too fly, you die in the worst way
Sort of like burning your body parts, the party starts
And inspires the crowd, like hearin' Marcus Garvey talk
Awkwardly spark beef, I put you all to sleep
The Blood and Ashes, I keep that all for me
I brainstorm in a blizzard and still remain calm
I walk through the inferno with flames in my palm
I start wars with killers and carnivores
And smash characters' heads in Cadillac car doors
Far more than amateur - I'm immature
Some say I'm Godly for holdin' the sinners' cure
My skin is pure, my body is waterproof
Slaughter the boof and keep blades between my jaw and my tooth
I'm dangerous, man, with just one raise of the hand
My game plan is make grands with my ace in the fam'
Ain't nothin' changed with the budget, and love from the public
I'm still waitin' to kill 'em with one club hit
My rugged approach, they lovin' the most
So while you...huggin' your toast, I stay up with the smoke
[Chorus: Planetary] + (Crypt the Warchild)
Aiyyo, it is what it is, my nigga (We gon' eat)
Whether the sun or the storm, my nigga (We gon' creep)
If it's on, then it's on, my nigga (We gon' beef)
I call a spade a spade, it just is what it is <- Jay-Z
[Verse 2: Crypt the Warchild]
Yo...
In case y'all ain't know, I'm a ragin' beast
Been hibernatin' all winter and I ain't made my feast
Eyes of Satan all lit up 'cause my aim to see
Quick to stab you in the back, never aim to please
Spit havoc on a track, the terrain could freeze
Live lavish on the map with a chain of thieves
Split atoms with a rap like my brain's diseased
As if I was a 'Nam vet with a grenade in trees
And if there's beef in the air, we let it fade the breeze
Invade the beach, parade the street from days to weeks
I'm made to creep, from above and beyond, beneath
Slave the beat, engrave your meat with ancient speech
Homicidal, cock my rifles, I'm a sniper
Plot my rivals, lock the title, I'm your idol
Squash the Bible, I'm a psycho, not disciple
I'm a tower, not the Eiffel, not delightful
[Chorus: Planetary] + (Crypt the Warchild)
It is what it is, my nigga (We gon' shine)
No matter who hatin' on the clique (It's our time)
*together* Let's do us, every rhyme, line for line
If I shine, you shine, shine
[Verse 3: Planetary] + (Crypt the Warchild)
My pen's cursed, the ink will poison you and your friends first
(Lyrical gems burst, what the fuck are your mens worth?)
Your neck jerk, every single part of you's left hurt
(Outerspace niggaz got the power to end Earth)
You out of place niggaz I devour, respect turf
(I shower flames sicker in a tower of dead birth)
on the hour train, nigga, where cowards get left murked
(And I'm the main nigga, y'all flowers with red skirts)
You'll probably brain quicker than a nun that offends church
(We bring pain quicker, every second it gets worse)
My network: equipped killers and experts
(Have your family fit proper in a box in a stretch hearse)
Have it propped up, locked up in a spot where death lurks
(Get your knot cut, rocked up, stainin' your sweatshirt)
I wrote this off of drinkin' with a bottle of Beck's first
(Had y'all niggaz thinkin' I was savin' my best verse)
[Chorus: Planetary] + (Crypt the Warchild)
Aiyyo, it is what it is, my nigga (We gon' eat)
Whether the sun or the storm, my nigga (We gon' creep)
If it's on, then it's on, my nigga (We gon' beef)
I call a spade a spade, it just is what it is <- Jay-Z

It Is What It Is

by Spiritualized

Then comes the sun ...
then comes the sun ...
I'm packing my stuff
crying 'cause he's gone
I'm not gonna see any of you there
I'm gonna go far
I have to be faster
maybe I'll get there before the pain
won't leave anything
won't take anything
only a story to tell one day
It can't be too hard
I keep telling myself
while the ground's missing
what's coming after?
It is what it is
I just need to see you
'n hold you
'n cry with you
'n be with you
I was afraid of too many things
but dying to prove I was strong enough
to make my own way
to make it myself
to keep my head up
be the one who helps
but it's got me crying
it's got me crawling
I'm so grateful 'cause it's got me knowing
it beats with my heart
the love that we made
shines through my eyes
it's out of the maze
Then comes the sun ...
It is what it is
I just need to see you
'n hold you
'n cry with you
'n be with you
Summer gone
air getting colder
I wished that I was one of those leaves
carried by wind naturally dying
never drank water
never touched fire
but it got me thinking
it got me going
can't be a leaf because I am woman ... I am woman
It is what it is
I just need to see you
'n hold you
'n cry with you
'n be with you
Then comes the sun ...
then comes the sun ...
E' quello che è
Poi viene il sole...
viene il sole...
viene il sole...
Poi viene il sole...
viene il sole...
viene il sole...
Sto preparando le valige
sto piangendo perché se n'è andato
Non vedrò nessuno di voi là
Andrò lontano, devo essere più veloce
Forse arriverò prima del dolore
Non lascio niente, non mi porto niente
Solo una storia da raccontare un giorno
Non può essere troppo difficile, mi dico continuamente mentre mi manca la terra sotto i piedi
Cosa succederà poi?
E' quello che è ho solo bisogno di vederti e stringerti
e piangere con te e stare con te
E' quello che è ho solo bisogno di vederti e stringerti
e piangere con te e stare con te
Avevo paura di troppe cose
Ma morivo dalla voglia di provare
che ero forte abbastanza
Per andare per la mia strada, da sola
Per tenere la testa alta, essere quella che aiuta
Ma ciò mi ha fatto piangere, mi ha fatto strisciare
Ma gli sono così grata perché mi ha fatto sapere
che l'amore che abbiamo fatto batte nel mio cuore
brilla attraverso i miei occhi, è fuori dal labirinto
Poi viene il sole...
E' quello che è ho solo bisogno di vederti e stringerti
e piangere con te e stare con te
E' quello che è ho solo bisogno di vederti e stringerti
e piangere con te e stare con te
E' quello che è ho solo bisogno di vederti e stringerti
e piangere con te e stare con te
E' quello che è ho solo bisogno di vederti e stringerti
e piangere con te e stare con te
L'estate se n'è andata, l'aria sta diventando più fredda
Ho desiderato essere una di quelle foglie
Portate dal vento, morendo naturalmente
Mai bevuto acqua, mai toccato fuoco
Ma mi ha fatto pensare, mi ha fatto andare
Non posso essere una foglia perché sono una donna sono una donna...
E' quello che è ho solo bisogno di vederti e stringerti
e piangere con te e stare con te
E' quello che è ho solo bisogno di vederti e stringerti
e piangere con te e stare con te
E' quello che è ho solo bisogno di vederti e stringerti
e piangere con te e stare con te
E' quello che è ho solo bisogno di vederti e stringerti
e piangere con te e stare con te
E' quello che è ho solo bisogno di vederti e stringerti
e piangere con te e stare con te
E' quello che è ho solo bisogno di vederti e stringerti
e piangere con te e stare con te
E' quello che è ho solo bisogno di vederti e stringerti
e piangere con te e stare con te
E' quello che è ho solo bisogno di vederti e stringerti
e piangere con te e stare con te
Poi viene il sole…
Poi viene il sole…
