Life is like a roller-coaster ride – that is the essence of You Know It. It is a song about ups and downs of life but even so, knowing who you are and being assertive should keep you focused. If you have shed a lot of tears and fears growing up; if you know the pain of losing people and friends; if you have experienced life – getting lost in the happenings of life, then You Know It is for you, you will definitely love this song. The song is chilled yet full of vibe.
