What It Is Lyrics

Yeah

Uh

Ha-ha

Mm

Look

The ones that look like me, look like 3, hate Mr. G the most

Ese to the folks, can't mess with me how it go

Snowball to the vatos

Don't rock with me looking like a paper plato

Too light too dark how it is, what it is

That's what it be, it's what it is, deal with it

Mm, mm

One side hate the double R's

Other side see me as the type to ride bumper cars

Clap when it stop-

When we ain't even been to Mars

Can't use my native tongue or my second, get laughed at

Real tejano wait, only half that

Still whiter than a lab rat, backtrack

Wasn't never in the hood

Wasn't never in a mansion, but I can't find the middle ground how to act

I'm American, but don't get too attached

Still Latino, but I got to be proper "it's Latinx"

Running two tracks like I got four legs already

"But I done liked grape juice for a minute!"

"Well now you black"

I see

What it be how it is, yeah it is what it is

It just be what it is

What it be how it is, yeah it is what it is

It just be what it is

Like one thing, you change colors

Random girl telling me to be offended, but I ain't even bothered

Put on ripped denim and a Polo collar

Then switch to khakis and designer worth a hundred dollars

See the liquor stores on corners, see the aesthetic home hoarders

See the trap-houses and rat-dousin'

50 primos in one crib, then the fat cows and,

See the Bentleys and the shotguns and the bass pro shops

See the bucktoothed, the abused but still hearing about tax or stocks

See two ends, two stories

Grab your socks 'fore they fly away, like an apple to a doctor

I done seen copters and be unamazed

I done seen cop cars a thousand times, but always still fazed

Yeah

What it be how it is, yeah it is what it is

It just be what it is

What it be how it is, yeah it is what it is

It just be what it is

What it be how it is, yeah it is what it is

It just be what it is

What it be how it is, yeah it is what it is

It just be what it is (Uh, yeah)

What it be how it is, yeah it is what it is

It just be what it is

What it be how it is, yeah it is what it is

It just be what it is

What it be how it is, yeah it is what it is

It just be what it is

What it be how it is, yeah it is what it is

It just be what it is

It is what it is
