So It Goes

[Verse 1]
Gotta press forward
Four core, six cents
Everybody looking for that space where they can fit in
Presto, Joes are flocking, people building, moving on up
High stakes that rhyme and cut (wow)
Can't we all just get a slice
Where we're bonafide
Try to keep up with the times
Oh shit, bon voyage
There it goes again, the locomotive coasting open skies
Held up at the station, patrons losing patience
Charge that to the game. Homie know the prize
It's all [a readdition to your western on the rye?]
There's sweet [chariots swing on going high?]
Each possibility, these probabilities
(Whoa, yeah) You lose control [roll and dodge?]
Holding power in the so-divine, feeling so alive
Show me signs, coping disorganized
That wholly holy psyche, hype almighty high

[Chorus]
Yeah I know
There's many, many, many, many ways this could go
(So it goes, so it goes y'all)
Yeah I know
There's many, many, many, many ways this could go
(So it goes, so it goes, brother)
Yeah I know
There's many, many, many, many ways this could go
(So it goes, so it goes, sister)
Yeah I know
There's many, many, many, many ways this could go
(So it goes, so it goes)

[Verse 2]
Drawn and quartered, tug of war, it's been a long day
Two outs, full count, better guard the plate
Got the swing, got the power, got the instinct
Got the know-how, got support, got my team, that's the dream
Position shifting on imminent, flowing, no gravity, swimming along
Thinking I find wherever the anchor is, isn't it fraying
Cutting the weight, but wanted to use it as orientation
Working the process, working the process
Punish yourself. Determining what is and what isn't needed

Guess I got a lot of champagne problems
Navigating on how to pay forward
Can't predict all of their offense
But can't control and pick the right causes
So when turning's all about how
You decide to implement why
And adapt to the ways it goes down
It takes time to fight the good fight

Yo, if I'm hitting a wall
Cracking the bricks
Packing a punch
Act on my hunches
Get out of the way
Clearing the path
Chim-i-ney sweep
Gather the ashes
Gather the ashes
Gather the ashes
Putting them into the Earth for the worms
The ferns, the willows, the oaks, hydrangeas
Love is the change. Nothing is permanent
So it goes, brother, so it goes, sister
Try to get what I can, just one part of the whole
Aim to make a connection 'cause we're just all on our own
Living on the cusp and what I trust is so it goes, so it goes, y'all

[Chorus]
Yeah I know
There's many, many, many, many ways this could go
(So it goes, so it goes y'all)
Yeah I know
There's many, many, many, many ways this could go
(So it goes, so it goes, brother)
Yeah I know
There's many, many, many, many ways this could go
(So it goes, so it goes, sister)
Yeah I know
There's many, many, many, many ways this could go
(So it goes, so it goes)
