It Is What It Is

So much of life wasted To bad fruits picked and tasted That grew in my head 'Cause I sowed them there It was all in my mind Nowhere else could I find This self imposed agony It's slippery and so phoney Too long sadness cherished Meanwhile my joy perished It overwhelmed me I allowed it to It was only a thought That just could not get caught By the one who made it up So useless that I tripped up Don't think your world is crumbling When all hope seems gone when the walls are tumbling Down on so called securities Well it is what it is Not a slap or a kiss Discern that a broken window Is an open view to an unseen rainbow That will transcend all of this Well it is what it is Not a curse or a bliss Meaningless Everything is finite, it's alright! Everything is changing, rearranging Everything is finite, it's alright! Everything is changing, rearranging Countless chances unused Ambitions, sorrows infused I've held myself back From all but fear Nurture or nature's whim Lets me sink and not swim The tidal wave before me It's turbid and so stormy Don't think your world is crumbling When all hope seems gone when the walls are tumbling Down on so called securities Well it is what it is Not a slap or a kiss Discern that a broken window Is an open view to an unseen rainbow That will transcend all of this Well it is what it is Not a curse or a bliss Meaningless Everything is finite, it's alright! Everything is changing, rearranging Everything is finite, it's alright! Everything is changing, rearranging Everything is finite, it's alright! Everything is changing, rearranging Everything is finite, it's alright! Everything is changing, rearranging
