THEY CAN'T KEEP A GOOD MAN DOWN 

They can try to knock the confidence out of a guy, beat him up PHYSICALLY AND MENTALLY, but he will keep on getting up, basically the quote "fall down 7 times, stand up 8"

No one can keep a good man down.
Good always prevails over evil , whether the people are jealous or envious of the person, they will never keep him down
For example, if one friend from a crew is seperated but has a good clean heart and he starts loving a girl, he might be seperated from his 'crew' but they're the ones who change NOT the person. They can knock him down and drain his confidence but no one can keep a good man down, he'll keep on getting up and be in their faces

Utility beer 

Utility beer is the beer you keep around for the day-to-day moments when beer is a necessity to assist in pedestrian activities (golf, plumbing, yardwork, babysitting, staff meetings, Zoom calls). For the beer snob it is the beer you save for neighbors when they drop in at 3 p.m. on a Tuesday. It is differentiated from the actual high-end beer you save for special events, holidays, and special tastings.
Person 1: Dave, did you bring along those hazy craft IPA's so we could drink while cleaning Lyle's pool?
