    WHAT IT IS // LYRICS:
    Pretty soon you have to deal
    With the truth behind the way you feel
    And I'd rather never know
    I would do anything anything
    Not to bring who I am to meet me
    This useless suffering
    Ugly part of me is screwing me
    As it feeds me
    But it is what it is
    You don't know how to live with what it is
    But it is what it is
    It may seem impossible
    But I will embrace who I really am
    If it's a son of a bitch or a terrified kid
    Then that's what it is
    Pretty soon you'll have to face
    You're a virus called the human race
    And I'll never never know
    I have done everything everything
    Not to feel what it is I'm feeling
    This basement devil is kicking the ass
    Of my angel on the ceiling
    But it is what it is
    You don't know how to live with what it is
    But it is what it is
    It may seem impossible
    But I will embrace who I really am
    If it's a son of a bitch or a terrified kid
    Then that's what it is
    Don't push me, don't kill me
    What it is cause it is what it is
    Don't play games, don't mess with
    What it is cause it is what it is
    Don't ask me, don't tell me
    What it is cause it is what it is
    Don't push me, don't kill me
    What it is cause it is what it is
    Don't run from where you come from
    Cause it is what it is
    And I
    And I
    But it is what it is
    You don't know how to live with what it is
    But it is what it is
    It may seem impossible
    But I will embrace who I really am
    If it's a son of a bitch or a terrified kid
    Then that's what it is

    Jonathan Davis, the guy who saved my life, I remember when I first met him in 2011, I was 19 years old, the only thing I said to him was: "Thanks Jon you saved my life", He looked at me, smiled and said: "I'm glad". One of the best days of my life

    I will never get over these lyrics. They are so true to life itself. The world is sinful and corrupt and we have to accept that about ourselves. Like the first step to even trying to be a better person is to acknowledge it and accept the presence of it. Sometimes though we are stuck with traits and issues that we can't change but we can help make it better. Sadly it is what it is 🤷‍♀️ Good song Jonathon Davis. I connect with your pain.

There is no cure, but it doesn't mean you should give up finding your happiness in this world. It just is what it is.

    Pretty soon you have to deal
    With the truth behind the way you feel
    And I'd rather never know
    I would do anything, anything
    Not to bring who I am to meet me
    This useless suffering
    Ugly part of me is screwing me
    As it feeds me
    But it is what it is
    You don't know how to live with what it is
    But it is what it is
    It may seem impossible
    But I will embrace who I really am
    If it's a son of a bitch or a terrified kid
    Then that's what it is
    Pretty soon you'll have to face
    You're a virus called the human race
    And I'll never, never know
    I have done everything, everything
    Not to feel what it is I'm feeling
    This basement devil is kicking the ass
    Of my angel on the ceiling
    But it is what it is
    You don't know how to live with what it is
    But it is what it is
    It may seem impossible
    But I will embrace who I really am
    If it's a son of a bitch or a terrified kid
    Then that's what it is
    Don't push me, don't kill me
    What it is 'cause it is what it is
    Don't play games, don't mess with
    What it is 'cause it is what it is
    Don't ask me, don't tell me
    What it is 'cause it is what it is
    Don't push me, don't kill me
    What it is 'cause it is what it is
    Don't run from where you come from
    'Cause it is what it is
    And I, I
    But it is what it is
    You don't know how to live with what it is
    But it is what it is
    It may seem impossible
    But I will embrace who I really am
    If it's a son of a bitch or a terrified kid

I lost a set of twins in 97 and his music helped me through those dark days. So much so that I named my son Jonathan after him. Also how is it he keeps getting hotter as he ages?
