goes along with

Matches or complements

Goes along with means to accompany or agree to something, often with a sense of passive acceptance rather than enthusiastic endorsement.

You might go along with a plan you're not thrilled about to avoid conflict.

It can also mean to naturally accompany: Responsibility goes along with leadership.

The phrase suggests compliance or correlation rather than active choice.
