"You Can Get It" lyrics

"You Can Get It"
(feat. K.Flay)

Tell me what you want and I'll tell you what I'm gonna do
I'm not giving up come on we got nothing left to lose
I've been here from the start you know I'm not going anywhere
I don't give a fuck tell me what you want
You can get it

Tied up
Bad vibes, bad luck, been swinging like a boomerang
Dried up
All talk, no bite, now we're coming like a hurricane
Pull the curtain back
Everybody wants to get some
A surprise attack
You and me together coming at you like a hurricane

Tell me what you want right now (Ooh)
Let everybody talk right now
Tell me what you want right now
You can get it

Tell me what you want and I'll tell you what I'm gonna do
I'm not giving up come on we got nothing left to lose
I've been here from the start you know I'm not going anywhere
I don't give a fuck tell me what you want
You can get it

Hold up
Coming out of me, lightning bolt electricity
Blow up
Tearing at the seams yeah I see it unraveling
Pulling back the curtain got the sun in my eyes
Everybody they been hurting but they push it aside
Every person is a person with a different disguise
Feels like I'm on a desert island and it's lord of the flies
Watch out for your neck
Wrecking ball is swinging heavy
This adrenaline
It's coming outta me, lightning bolt electricity

Tell me what you want right now (Ooh)
Let everybody talk right now
Tell me what you want right now
You can get it (Yeah)
Well you can get it (Yeah)
You can get it

Tell me what you want and I'll tell you what I'm gonna do
I'm not giving up come on we got nothing left to lose
I've been here from the start you know I'm not going anywhere
I don't give a fuck tell me what you want
You can get it
I don't give a fuck tell me what you want
You can get it
You can get it
You can get it
Tell me what you want and I'll tell you what I'm gonna do
I'm not giving up come on we got nothing left to lose
I've been here from the start you know I'm not going anywhere
I don't give a fuck tell me what you want
You can get it
You can get it
You can get it
I don't give a fuck tell me what you want
You can get it

Arkells teased "You Can Get It" by a series of messages on Twitter starting from the 20th of March 2021. The posts were made in the style of the "Wheel of Fortune" game opening some of the song's lyrics. The game's setting is also used in the song's music video directed by Mark Myers.
"It feels like the sun is finally coming out, and the song is about being free to chase down every dream and desire," said frontman, Max Kerman, about "You Can Get It" released on the 26th of March 2021. "When we started writing this song, the world felt dark. We were looking for answers. You look to people who give you energy. You look for little moments that can lead you on a new path. Collaborating with K.Flay gave us that jolt. She turned the song on its head and drove it home. Our band is always evolving and growing, and she's now in the family."
This song was recorded with K.Flay in-person in Los Angeles in February 2020. She said about it, "This song is about finding your momentum, the potential energy that's inside of you. The moment when you scream to yourself 'I don't give a fuck tell me what you want! You can get it!' So often, the future doesn't just feel unknowable — it feels impossible. We wanted this song to feel like possibility. Like the world is opening up. Like you are powerful."
