DJ Snake Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Interesting Facts ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I say no way, try again, another day
I should be happy, not tipping the scales
I just won't play letting my life get away
I'm no fool, no, I'm not a follower
I don't take things as they come
If they bring me down
I just wanna have some fun
Don't tell me what can't be done
You know you like it but it drives you insane
You know you like it but it drives you insane
You know you like it but you're scared of the shame
What you want, what you gonna do?
You know you like it but it drives you insane
Follow me cause you know that you wanna feel the same
You know you like it but it drives you insane
What you want, what you gonna do?
If you wanna train me like an animal
Better keep your eye on my every move
There's no need to be, so damn cruel
Baby you got nothing to prove
I'm no fool, no, I'm not a follower
I don't take things as they come
If they bring me down
Life can be cruel if you're a dreamer
I just wanna have some fun
Don't tell me what can't be done
You know you like it but it drives you insane
You know you like it but it drives you insane
You know you like it but you're scared of the shame
What you want, what you gonna do?
You know you like it but it drives you insane
Follow me cause you know that you wanna feel the same
You know you like it but it drives you insane
What you want, what you gonna do?
You know you like it but it drives you insane
You know you like it but it drives you insane
You know you like it but you're scared of the shame
What you want, what you gonna do?
You know you like it but it drives you insane
Follow me cause you know that you wanna feel the same
You know you like it but it drives you insane
What you want, what you gonna do?
The lyrics of DJ Snake's song "You Know You Like It" are about being confident in who you are and not letting others dictate your life. The first verse speaks to the pressure that some people may feel to conform to certain expectations, but the singer refuses to play along. They value their happiness and refuse to let their life slip away. The second verse points out that the singer is not a follower and refuses to accept things as they are if they are not what they want. They are a dreamer who wants to have fun and won't be told what they cannot do.
The chorus repeats the phrase "You know you like it but it drives you insane," which can be interpreted in a few different ways. It could be referring to someone who is hesitant about their feelings for another person, or someone who is intrigued by a lifestyle or way of living that goes against societal norms. The line "What you want, what you gonna do?" suggests that the person is at a crossroads and needs to make a decision. The following lines encourage the person to take a chance and follow the singer towards something that they want to experience.
Overall, the song is about individuality, taking risks, and pursuing what you want despite what others may think. It encourages the listener to embrace their desires and not let fear hold them back.
