It Is What It Is
THE STORY
The world is trying to turn the day into a race, and the narrator chooses a different pace. There are unfinished conversations, losses and a future that refuses to stay under control. Rather than tighten his grip, he begins to loosen it. Wind, trees and the sea offer another rhythm, one that carries on without needing every outcome to be planned. The repeated title becomes something to breathe with. Acceptance here is a way of making room for the present: taking the next step without dragging every disappointment behind it. There is still a road to walk, even when we cannot arrange everything along it.

It is what it is Mi nah fight dis Slow down life, just breathe lik dis It is what it is Mi nah twist Jah know di road, mi walk inna bliss Wake up, sun light pon mi face No rush, no chase, just space Dem world waan pull mi inna race But mi step slow, find mi place Too much noise inna mi head Too much things weh neva said Drop it down, release di thread Still alive, mi cyaan be dead And if it fall, mek it fall Mi nah hold no chain at all Every loss, every call Still a guide mi through it all It is what it is Mi nah fight dis Slow down life, just breathe lik dis It is what it is Mi nah twist Jah know di road, mi walk inna bliss Cold wind blow through di trees Still mi heart find ease No control, just let it be Life a flow like di sea Dem waan plan everyting Future tight like a string But mi cut dat, let it swing Freedom come when mi sing Let it go No control Just breathe It is what it is It is what it is It is what it is It is what it is It is what it is Mi nah fight dis Slow down life, just breathe lik dis It is what it is Mi nah twist Jah know di road, mi walk inna bliss Mi walk inna bliss
