Ras Kass - It is what it is

Tekst :

[Ras Kass]
I been around the world once, had your fiancé twice
I ain t nothin nice, but every lifestyle got a price
Kiss my momma on the cheek cause her love was deep
Like Keith Sweat, but the deeper the streets get
The deeper the beef get
Enough fatal attraction to ??? your vet
Cause everybody wanna have it ??? and sh
Now, ??? is my ??? over night, insight
I write like six hundred thousand kilobytes
Yes I m on one, European cars, Cuban cigars, rap stars,
Glass ceilings to the inevitable cap dealing for sexual healing
I lack feeling, voted for black women like Terry Macmillan
Save a prayer for me, I was told no guts no glory
I shed a tear once in a while, too
But a soldier gots to do what he gots to do
I once ??? in ??? for Rupert Murdoch, I thought you knew
It is what it is

Hook:
[Jazze Pha] Nowadays, that s the way it is
[Ras Kass] Why do we do what we do when we do what we must, that s
how it is, and how it is is kinda fucked up
[Jazze Pha] It s sad to say, but things just ain t the same no more
[Ras Kass] Why do we do what we do when we do what we lust, it is
what it is, and how it is is kinda fucked up

[Ras Kass]
If the pussy is free, then talk is cheap
Then again, it s probably cheaper to keep her
Back in the days, all a nigga needed was suede pumas and a beeper
Now they all expecting condos, briquettes and pet cheetahs
See ya when I see ya
And by then I know the motors she bogus I noticed they jockin the rims on
the ???
I learned early to trust God when moms was like [you wear all that Nike shit]
You need to swoosh your ass and get a job
My occupation be operation, more horsepower than Daytona
Cause I m a rider, like Wynonna
Being nice is a vice, the gift is naturally mine
That s like grand verbalizing not knowin the time
See, my partners commit crimes servin federal ???
Confined to a six by nine regretin the wrong shit he did
I swig, wishing we was still little kids
But we grown men now homey, it is what it is

Hook

[Ras Kass]
Hip hop ain t even fun
In these strange days, rappers is getting done
Like Jericho won
Within two months, two major artists got slumped
I whispered God rest the dead and let the ??? pump pump
Kept a ??? since about eleventh grade
Rock the Donna Carren shades
Cause I don t like to dream about getting paid
But I m afraid I do
Trying to organize a team, willing to empty magazines
This supreme fiends for cream
We need g s, like Mary Magdelline and born again Christians
Ain t a politician cause I already got your vote
True, I want your money but I ain t a preacher no
I don t even love the dough
But if you don t work you don t eat, so I want all I can get before I go
I love what money can get
It s elementary evidently, the custom convertible Bentley tently
It is what it is

Hook x2

[Jazze Pha]
There are things that we can change
Some things remain the same
That s just the way it is
Way it goes, yeah
There are things that we can change
But most things gon stay the same
It s the way it is
You better believe it, ooh yeah

    Candy says I ve come to hate my body
    and all that it requires in this world

    what others so discretely talk about

    Farting with a walkman on

    I know you re gonna play when you get wind
    I heard you re full of shit so i ve been duped again

    Zitroneneis

    Es ist Sommer und sie ist hier
    Heute bin ich glücklich, denn sie schläft bei mir
    Sie liegt neben mir, sie weiß, was ich will
    Ich möchte sie gern lieben, doch sie liegt so tödlich still

    Den Abend kann ich wohl vergessen
    mein Schatz, ich geh jetzt Eise essen

    Es ist Sommer und es ist heiß

    Curse the gods

    Allah, Buddha, Jesus Christ
    whatever your god may be
    forget those idols let me tell you
    they re tales of morbid brains

    everybody thinks he s right
    that his gods are the only truth
    fanatic faith, fanatic deeds
    join my religion or die

    jews killed jesus, christs slaughtered jews
    millions die for their faith
    each religion prays that killing is...

    Subhuman

    Burn down all your idols
    Destroy your idols
    Create a scene
    There goes all your reason
    It s helter skelter
    It s not a dream
    Come down from the altar
    Remove your blindfold
    What do you see?
    Nothing left to do here
    There s nothing new here
    It s all...
