Overall Meaning

The song "The Way It Goes" by Juicy J is an anthem about accepting the reality that hoes will always be hoes, and it is futile to try to change them. The lyrics talk about how it is pointless to be mad or jealous of a woman's choice to engage in promiscuous behavior because it is part of her nature. The chorus repeats the line "hoes gon' be hoes" to drive the point home. Juicy J also talks about his experience as a pimp and how he advises women to focus on making money and making other women jealous rather than falling in love with men who will inevitably betray them. He also talks about the upsides of being a successful pimp, such as having multiple "bitches" in different locations, and the drawbacks, such as the constant pursuit of wealth and the need to constantly be on guard.


Overall, "The Way It Goes" is a song that celebrates the unchanging nature of women who choose to engage in promiscuous behavior, and how it is better to accept it than to fight against it.
