It Just Is
For so long I've been
haunted by some uncertain wonders
like a bolt of
lightning and the sounds of thunder
just a-marchin' every
mile with the rank and file
we're livin' on the
edge of history
these coincidences
are a mystery
it ain't good- it
ain't bad
Our way of life was
shattered by their violent deed
they came from
faraway lands and way across the sea
one man's hand seeks
to destroy our land
terror from the sky
reignin' down debris
our tallest building
falling in the street
It ain't black- It
ain't white
For a moment's peace
we send our young to war
how can Allah's
religion be worth killing for
they need to know one
thing- the freedom bell still rings
we got to protect
every son and daughter
keep 'em from the
shark infested waters
It ain't right- it
ain't wrong
It just is- this is
what it is
It ain't good, it
ain't bad
It ain't black, it
ain't white
It ain't right, It
ain't wrong
This is what it is,
It just is
Osama soon he will
know that the good guys are comin'
ya messed with New
York City, now we got you runnin'
the fanatic's law is
to destroy us all
now a thin line is
drawn in the sand
could make or break
the survival of man
It's no good- no,
it's no damn good
It just Is- this is
what it is
It ain't good, it
ain't bad
It ain't black, it
ain't white
It ain't right, it
ain't wrong
This is what it is,
it just is
It just is, this is
what it is
It ain't good, it
ain't bad
It ain't black, it
ain't white
It ain't right, it
ain't wrong
This is what it is,
ya, It Just Is
