So It Goes

[Verse 1]

Gotta press forward

Four core, six cents

Everybody looking for that space where they can fit in

Presto, Joes are flocking, people building, moving on up

High stakes that rhyme and cut (wow)

Can't we all just get a slice

Where we're bonafide

Try to keep up with the times

Oh shit, bon voyage

There it goes again, the locomotive coasting open skies

Held up at the station, patrons losing patience

Charge that to the game. Homie know the prize

It's all [a readdition to your western on the rye?]

There's sweet [chariots swing on going high?]

Each possibility, these probabilities

(Whoa, yeah) You lose control [roll and dodge?]

Holding power in the so-divine, feeling so alive

Show me signs, coping disorganized

That wholly holy psyche, hype almighty high


[Chorus]

Yeah I know

There's many, many, many, many ways this could go

(So it goes, so it goes y'all)

Yeah I know

There's many, many, many, many ways this could go

(So it goes, so it goes, brother)

Yeah I know

There's many, many, many, many ways this could go

(So it goes, so it goes, sister)

Yeah I know

There's many, many, many, many ways this could go

(So it goes, so it goes)


[Verse 2]

Drawn and quartered, tug of war, it's been a long day

Two outs, full count, better guard the plate

Got the swing, got the power, got the instinct

Got the know-how, got support, got my team, that's the dream

Position shifting on imminent, flowing, no gravity, swimming along

Thinking I find wherever the anchor is, isn't it fraying

Cutting the weight, but wanted to use it as orientation

Working the process, working the process

Punish yourself. Determining what is and what isn't needed

Guess I got a lot of champagne problems

Navigating on how to pay forward

Can't predict all of their offense

But can't control and pick the right causes

So when turning's all about how

You decide to implement why

And adapt to the ways it goes down

It takes time to fight the good fight

Yo, if I'm hitting a wall

Cracking the bricks

Packing a punch

Act on my hunches

Get out of the way

Clearing the path

Chim-i-ney sweep

Gather the ashes

Gather the ashes

Gather the ashes

Putting them into the Earth for the worms

The ferns, the willows, the oaks, hydrangeas

Love is the change. Nothing is permanent

So it goes, brother, so it goes, sister

Try to get what I can, just one part of the whole

Aim to make a connection 'cause we're just all on our own

Living on the cusp and what I trust is so it goes, so it goes, y'all


[Chorus]

Yeah I know

There's many, many, many, many ways this could go

(So it goes, so it goes y'all)

Yeah I know

There's many, many, many, many ways this could go

(So it goes, so it goes, brother)

Yeah I know

There's many, many, many, many ways this could go

(So it goes, so it goes, sister)

Yeah I know

There's many, many, many, many ways this could go

(So it goes, so it goes)
