Embracing Success and Dismissing Negativity: The Essence of 'It Is What It Is'

Big Sean's song 'It Is What It Is (feat. Gunna)' is a powerful anthem that delves into themes of success, resilience, and the ability to rise above negativity. The lyrics reflect a confident and unapologetic attitude towards life and business, emphasizing the importance of focusing on one's goals and not getting bogged down by detractors or setbacks. The phrase 'it is what it is' serves as a mantra for accepting circumstances as they are and moving forward with determination.

In the opening lines, Big Sean sets the tone by highlighting his achievements and the hard work that has led him to the top. He addresses the challenges and criticisms he has faced, but rather than letting them affect him, he chooses to cut off negativity and focus on his business. This attitude is encapsulated in the line, 'Quit being so sensitive and takin' it personal, baby, it's biz.' The song underscores the idea that success often requires tough decisions and a thick skin.

Gunna's verse complements Big Sean's message by reinforcing the theme of resilience and self-reliance. He speaks about his journey to success, the sacrifices he has made, and the importance of staying true to oneself. Gunna's lines, 'Fuck all that hatin', that shit a disease and they dyin' off,' and 'My competition are like all of my children,' highlight his confidence and the dismissive attitude towards those who doubt him. The collaboration between Big Sean and Gunna creates a cohesive narrative about overcoming obstacles and thriving in the face of adversity.

The song's repetitive chorus, 'It is what it is,' serves as a reminder to accept life's challenges and keep pushing forward. This mantra is not just about resignation but about empowerment and the recognition that one's attitude towards circumstances can shape their reality. The track is a celebration of success, hard work, and the resilience needed to maintain it, making it a motivational anthem for anyone striving to achieve their goals.
