That’s How It Is

Lyrics

[Saxophone Solo] [Verse 1] Ayo, what's up, y'all? I'm here flowin' on a new track The band is makin' it funky, and that's a fact It's time for me to wreck it and start doin' damage Can't get to dope funky rhymes without no crazy beverage I'm always goin' forward 'cause there ain't no time to slow down All I gotta do is keep flowin' so y'all can get down Usin' my nuclear tactics so you may never quit Movin' around just like if you were on a ship [Saxophone Solo] [Verse 2] We got a funky live sound with hip hop rhymes I drop [?] never tellin' any lies Whatever I throw, it's just a funky show If you wanna hear from these lyrics, you [?] Today there's not so much positivity People actin' ill as a society You can't think straight 'cause your mind is bein' messed with And all you ever dream about is what you can't get [Chorus] That's how it is That's how it is That's how it is, y'all [Verse 3] Each and every day you gotta be a hustler 'Cause you only live once and you're not ready to trust a Single politician that just gives you illusion So it's up to yourself to find a better solution You're out in the streets to make your pockets fat But you avoid any combat, you an acrobat D'you do anything to protect your own kids? You're out of [?], that's how it is [Chorus] That's how it is That's how it is, y'all That's how it is [Saxophone Solo] [Verse 4] It's important for all to keep an open mind 'Cause every day ignorance is what endangers mankind All the time feelin' like you're in danger Makes you treat everyone like a goddamn stranger Despite all of this I've never demoralized Yeah '93 I'm [?] tryin' to stay wise It's hard to get it goin' in the music biz Gotta have some discipline, yeah you know how it is [Interlude] Yeah Mmm That's how it's goin' down Check it out on the smooth tip That's how we get it goin' That's how it is Alright, y'all [Keyboard Solo] [Verse 5] I'm laid back, still kickin' it in this verse To get my point across I didn't have to curse I ain't sweatin' it 'cause my style is smooth You're improvisin', exercisin', realisin' dance moves The band doesn't stop rockin' the house with ease Don't ask me why, mm Yo That's how it is [Saxophone Solo] [Interlude] Mm-mm That's how it's goin' down Check it out on the smooth tip That's how we get it goin' That's how it is Alright, y'all [Saxophone Solo] [Outro] That's how it is Yeah That's how it is, y'all Just like that It won't stop Nnh, yeah, uh, yeah, come on, yeah Unh, kick it, that is how it is That, is, how, it is That, is, how, it is That's how it is, y'all
