“It Is What It Is” brings back the braggadocious glaive from May It Never Falter over a hyperpop-adjacent instrumental. The track hears glaive rap in a never-before seen flow. The chorus comes as a reflection of who he could’ve been and how people are around him while the verses flaunt the wealth he...
It Is What It Is Lyrics
[Intro]
Ayy, uh
Uh, uh
[Chorus]
Ayy, it is what it is, you must accept it while you can, though
I could've played, I could've balled just like my dad, but, huh
I just couldn't learn to pass, though, this bitch, goddamn
Man, y'all couldn't hold a candle, for real
Cracked a joke inside the function, it didn't really land, though
Like, why'd nobody laugh though, for real?
Y'all wouldn't understand
I'm laughing like it is, but this shit is kinda sad though, for real
[Verse 1]
Y'all can't, y'all can't, y'all can't do the shit I've done
Michelle Yeoh, I couldn't cope, it's all happening at once, huh, huh
It either doesn't or it does
If I said it, then I meant it, if I meant it, then it's done, huh
Done, yeah, peacefulness in love, yeah
Fool me once, it's fine, but fool me twice, then it's fuck ya
Shinzo Abe, we brought homemade guns, yeah
Walk into the bank and they greet me by the gov', huh
[Chorus]
It is what it is, you must accept it while you can, though
I could've played, I could've balled just like my dad, but, huh
I just couldn't learn to pass, though, this bitch, goddamn
Man, y'all couldn't hold a candle, for real
Cracked a joke inside the function, it didn't really land, though
Like, why'd nobody laugh though, for real?
Y'all wouldn't understand
I'm laughing like it is, but this shit is kinda sad though, for real
[Verse 2]
Y'all can't do the shit I've done
I'm Chicharito in a way, I score for fun
I was a kid and you weren't half the man I was
I had 100K before I could even— huh
Best believe it
When I walked through my hometown, it's like a special event
I started winning so much, it started losing meaning
God, what a feeling
Y'all wouldn't get it even
[Chorus]
It is what it is, you must accept it while you can, though
I could've played, I could've balled just like my dad, but, huh
I just couldn't learn to pass, though, this bitch, goddamn
Man, y'all couldn't hold a candle, for real
Cracked a joke inside the function, it didn't really land, though
Like, why'd nobody laugh though, for real?
Y'all wouldn't understand
I'm laughing like it is, but this shit is kinda sad though, for real
[Outro]
For real, for real, for real— real
For real, for real, for real
For real, for real, for real— real
For real, for real, for real
For real, for real, for real— real
For real, for real, for real
For real, for real, for real— real
For real, for real, for real

What did glaive say about "It Is What It Is"?
We made this song the same day Jake Paul fought Mike Tyson; it doesn’t mean anything for the song, just thought it would set the scene well. Sort of the spiritual successor to Victoria Beckham, but a lot better IMO. I really enjoy “rapping” if that’s what you’d call this song. I like coming up with...
