It Is What It Is Ras Kass (Ft. Jazze Pha)

[Verse 1: Ras Kass]
I been around the world once, had your fiancee twice
I ain't nuthin' 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 boil your pet
'Cause everybody wanna have it lavish
Now, courvoisier is my dossier overnight, inside
I write like six hundred thousand kilobytes
Yes I'm on one, European cars, Cuban cigars, rap stars
Glass ceilings to the inevitable cap peeling for sexual healing
I lack feeling, wrote it for black women like Terry McMillan
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 want stock in Fox, coughin' with Rupert Murdoch, I thought you knew
It is what it is

[Hook: Jazze Pha & Ras Kass]
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
