"Is What It Is" Lyrics:
Verse 1
I don’t know what any of this means
Why we go through so many things
Scared of death and too afraid to live that’s why
Me and my friends just talk about the aliens
Breathe in
Breathe out
My two feet on the ground
Breathe in
Breathe out
My two feet on the ground
Chorus 1
It is what it is wasn’t meant to happen any other way
Cause it did
Doesn’t really matter what you wanted in the end
When it is what it is
What it is what it is
What it is
It is what it is wasn’t meant to happen any other way
Cause it did
Doesn’t really matter what you wanted in the end
When it is what it is
What it is what it is
What it is what it is love
Verse 2
One thing I know is
I don’t got any answers
Try to stay in the moment
I get lost in forever
And I don’t know if it ever gets better
That’s why old men just talk about the weather
Breathe in
Breathe out
My two feet on the ground
Breathe in
Breathe out
My two feet on the ground
Chorus 2
It is what it is wasn’t meant to happen any other way
Cause it did
Doesn’t really matter what you wanted in the end
When it is what it is
What it is what it is
What it is
It is what it is wasn’t meant to happen any other way
Cause it did
Doesn’t really matter what you wanted in the end
When it is what it is
What it is what it is
What it is what it is love
Chorus 3
It is what it is wasn’t meant to happen any other way
Cause it did
Doesn’t really matter what you wanted in the end
When it is what it is
What it is what it is
What it is
It is what it is wasn’t meant to happen any other way
Cause it did
When you’re looking back
Try giving less of a shit
When it is what it is
When it is what it is
What it is what it is
What it is love

They deserve every award and amount of recognition they receive.

[@ericaschmid1982]

The way I cry everytime I listen to this song. These guys have such a way of meeting me where I’m at with every single new release ever since Pep Talks. Keep being you boys ❤

[@marykatekenney]

Same! The music is always exactly what I need at that stage in life!

[@daniellebauer3678]

I agree. I cry & struggle to comment. Tears are healing. I have an endless supply 😢

[@erinlaney7600]

Me too friend 🥺💓 You've got this 🥺💓 We're going to be okay 💓💓

[@digitalshane_]

Revival was therapy for me. This is gonna be next level 🙌

[@sunriseinthemountains]

Love you both. Love the vulnerability. Love the turtlenecks. Love the dance moves. Love that you both exist. Love big bowties. Love therapy. Love your big beautiful hearts ❤

[@JMBE21]

This is truly a great song for the ones with anxiety

[@Countryboyhad]

Judah & the Lion always release release new music in my time of need ❤ These guys have helped me through some of the toughest times I've been through. I've been fortunate to meet Judah, twice, and he has such a calming aura. Thank you guys for the beautiful music!!!

[@christythigpen2931]

My husband and I went to see need to breathe and didn’t know much about this band, but they stole the show with the opener!! Despite not knowing any songs we were loving them all. Great energy, down to earth and it is so awesome how faith is intertwined in such a subtle beautiful way with the lyrics. Haven’t stopped listening since we got home - you’ve gained some new fans!! 🙏🏼

[@jessicacurran8619]

Man this is SO good and gets me so excited for the new album!!

[@dnluna0213]

😢I was in the hospital getting ready to have surgery for my foot. While waiting, I started dancing to this song and literally a wave of emotions came over me. I couldn't stop crying. So many things I have experienced. Some I could control, some I couldn't, but it's all a process.

[@z3ph3us6]

I hope it went well. I’ve injured my own feet over the years. Your best mode is your feet, stay strong and keep dancing on them

[@kdindore1990]

Words can't express how much Revival helped me through the hardest time of my life. My father died just a couple weeks after the release of that album. If it hadnt been for that album, idk where I'd be. And this song just hit me so hard in the gut in the best way possible. I love you guys and i hope you never stop making music. One love, be safe.

[@Splitcreeklost]

I had the world wrapped in my arms when I saw them live for the first time. That moment is one all should experience regardless of how your world may change.

[@livingfordreams8525]

The biggest mystery is how these dudes arent bigger. This song came at the perfect time for me, and ive been listening to it constantly. I love this band!

[@bagg.s6775]

Cause they suck maybe!?

[@livingfordreams8525]

@@bagg.s6775 WHAATTTT???!!! Why do you think that?

[@PosieJasper]

SO GOOD!!! Thank you for creating this and sharing it with us. What a privilege it is to experience your music! Bravo!!!

[@sfwtk96]

Loveee. I smiled when Judah started dancing

[@vmcbride656]

The exact song I needed at this exact moment in my life. Because no matter what, it is what it is wasn’t meant to happen any other way. So I’ll just invite it in and breathe. Thank you, you wonderful men, and the women who support you.

[@huelu982]

It is what it is in Italy

[@StevenCarmichael-sd6uw]

Never heard of these guys before they opened for Needtobreathe last night in Brandon, MS. They absolutely stole the show from the first note. We’re fans for life.

[@christiansabeliever]

I was at that show. They both phenomenally. Judah was having a blast the entire time when he was on that stage.

[@swilloughby41]

My new 'life motto'! Been through too much adversity in 55 yrs. Thank you J&L!

[@janesettle3199]

GREAT VIDEO!!!! 🎉

[@MysteriousKarma]

It's really wild to find a song and know that it's going to make my number 1 song for my Spotify wrapped this year. Literally have played this hundreds of times since it came out. Thank you guys for creating this. Next time you're around columbus, I can't wait to see you guys again and sing along with everyone ... This is such a truly wonderful song, and I thank you for sharing this message, and while it's not necessarily a message some people care to accept the way you have managed to turn it into such a positive song is truly remarkable.

[@briangrandis7752]

Thx Judah for saving all our souls today 🙏🏼 See you in San Diego

[@PunkDogCreations]

They can't save souls, only Jesus can.❤

[@carleesireika8276]

you came to Reno a few months ago with NeedToBreathe and your energy was OUTSTANDING. That was my first time hearing of your band and I have listened to your songs ever since! I hope you come back again soon!!!! Keep doing what you do! Your songs raise my vibrations so high!!

[@CraigTrevorWeichmann]

Y'all are amazing

[@carolsheffey638]

I thought of this group today and so happy I looked!! Haven’t heard their music in so long!!!

[@mvpcardinal4668]

[@kuwahakyembe5632]

[@normagoodman1042]

Judah, it gets better. I've seen your beauty. I've seen the end result. God and angels are fighting for you both. They love you. I love you in worlds I can't explain

[@MidwestMountainBike]

[@ruthgillette5440]

This is an awesome music video as well as a song. I can't believe my eyes and ears. Incredible.

[@JenniferBoyatt]

I always pick a theme song for each year and this is 2024 for me. Thanks :).

[@Lee1oo]

It is what it is love

[@wanderingrock]

Is God the isness that is?

[@braddelisle6902]

Your new single has hit me exactly where I am today. It was a fresh slap in the face that my angry from the loss was valid but has gone on too long. It's time for love to come back and to hardening my outter shell because of being terrified of losing loved ones to death.

[@lelej48483]

Omg I NEED the full album now! ❤

[@PunkDogCreations]

Please refrain from using God's name as a profanity.
