It Is What It Is feat. J.T. Rothschild

Why bother, dying as a martyr?
Eat, work, sleep, repeat, right father?
You should've tried drugs, you might've lived longer,
everyone knows they make you bigger, better, faster, stronger,

except conspiracy theorists, so paranoid,
thinking Big Pharma's out to get us, boy they're annoyed,
all these advances in science are to be enjoyed,
like turning poppies into medicine, I'm your boy!

Sign me up, I'll try more than a little bit, and
not for placebo effect, make me a guinea pig,
if they fuck up, I'll be seeing a settlement, or
calling my favorite lawyer, if they try to hedge a cent,

but that's irrelevant, and probably unnecessary,
I got connections in spades, like a cemetery,
privilege comes with debts, heavier the more you carry,
you know, like the Catholic Church, the more the Mary.

...and it goes ...and it goes ...and it goes, and it goes, x2

So many lazy people, the world can't take much more,
blaming cops for their problems, and looting stores,
all these lowlife excuses for humans, such bores,
like Paris Hilton said: "stop being poor!"

It's a mentality, you gotta choose that,
quit believing you're broke, you gotta lose that,
I had to pull myself up from my bootstraps, and
nobody gave me shit, #TrueFacts,

Dad taught us, money comes easily,
as long as I do the work and believe in me,
we're all special, it doesn't take a genius seed,
somebody's gotta be me, might as well be me,

as far as I'm concerned, this world's a perfect place,
I've got the fastest car, I'm in a perfect race,
and I'm a model citizen, I've got a perfect face,
jealously is natural, but is it worth the taste?
