The overall message of this song is about fighting through adversity and not letting anything stop you until you reach the light of day. The lyrics encourage listeners to keep fighting 'till they can't fight anymore, but at the same time, assure them that everything will be alright. The repetition of these lines throughout the song gives the listener a sense of urgency and determination. The pre-chorus encourages the listener to turn up the music and keep pushing forward, with the hope that they'll make it to the daylight. The chorus then repeats, emphasizing the importance of not stopping, and pushing on until the goal is achieved.
The verses themselves focus more on the music and the dancefloor. The rhythm and beat of the song, particularly in the bass drops, makes it hard to resist dancing along. The lyrics encourage everyone to come together, putting their hands in the air, and celebrating the moment they are in. They are encouraged to let go of their worries, forget the troubles of the day, and just bounce.
