Did you know?

The core message revolves around the repeated lines “I get knocked down, but I get up again.

You are never gonna keep me down”.

This phrase encapsulates the central theme of resilience.

The verses, filled with seemingly random scenarios like “He drinks a Whiskey drink, he drinks a Vodka drink,” represent the various ways people cope with hardship and celebrate small victories.

These coping mechanisms, though perhaps unhealthy in excess, are portrayed as part of the human experience.

The song embraces the chaotic, messy reality of life, acknowledging that setbacks are inevitable but that the important thing is to keep fighting and celebrating the small wins along the way.

The overall tone is defiant and optimistic, making it an enduring anthem of perseverance.
