John Mancini Band It Is What It Is
I've been studying the signs
hid between the lines
of a tattoo on your wrist
but the meaning is obscure
and I'm not so sure
meaning does exist
Better run for your life
If I'm not treating you right
maybe you should insist
cause opportunities abound
for digging up the ground
there might have been
something you missed
It is what it is, my friend
hit or miss until the end
there's more than one way to be
and no point in staying
if you want to leave
Another day in paradise
another way to sacrifice
the thing you can't resist
and let the answers come to you
but recognize which one is true
and which one a myth
What you see ain't what you get
you ain't seen nothing yet
but you must persist
as the road rolls along
on the way to kingdom come
and carries us into the mist
It is what it is, my friend
hit or miss until the end
there's more than one way to be
and no point in staying
if you want to leave
believe what you want
but don't blame me
