You Know It
Magical Thinker & Stephen Wrabel Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You know the right words, they're all in your head
So wake up in the morning and get out of bed
The dreams you've been dreaming were right, now's the time
You build up these monsters, they're just in your mind

If you feel it in your heart, then sing it loud
I know you know who you are, so sing it loud
It's all about you

You just gotta know (gotta know)
You can do it on your own
Guess it's why I wrote this song
You know it's about you
It's always about you
Never let a dream go cold
Even when you're losing hope
Guess it's why I wrote this song
You know it's about you
It's always about you
So there you go

I know the feeling like you'll never win
Your heart's in the washer, your head's in the spin
You try and you try, but you can't catch a break
But sometimes believing is all that it takes

If you feel it in your heart, then sing it loud
I know you know who you are, so sing it loud
It's all about you

You just gotta know (gotta know)
You can do it on your own
Guess it's why I wrote this song
You know it's about you
It's always about you
Never let a dream go cold
Even when you're losing hope
Guess it's why I wrote this song
You know it's about you
It's always about you
So there you go

If it's playing in your car, don't turn it down
I know you know who you are, so sing it loud
If you feel it in your heart, it's all about
It's all about you

If it's playing in your car, don't turn it down
I know you know who you are, so sing it loud
If you feel it in your heart, it's all about
It's all about you

You just gotta know (gotta know)
You can do it on your own
Guess it's why I wrote this song
You know it's about you
It's always about you
Never let a dream go cold
Even when you're losing hope
Guess it's why I wrote this song
You know it's about you




It's always about you
So there you go

I am 53 years of age
Unfortunately I did not have growing up to encourage encouraged me to
I listen to others and my choices in life
Took me elsewhere and I gave up on my dreams ..... Iryna never give up on your dreams. If anyone ever tells you that you're not good enough.,,
Look at them and smile
And tell them ( yes I am I believe in myself I am.
A PROFESSIONAL DANCER.... )
So keeping believing in yourself and keep the dream alive.
As long as you believe
YOU CAN BE ANYTHING
LITTLE ONE
YOU ARE A PROFESSIONAL..
