If you don't get it, then you don't get it

Hello !


Threw a line out to pull you to me
If you don't get it, then you don't get it
You made your mind up before you knew me
If you don't get it, then you don't get it

Five for Fighting "What If" - song lyrics

What does the expression if you don't get it, then you don't get it mean ?
Is it something similar to if you're right, you're right ( meaning : I can't convince you ) ?

To get something is to understand its meaning. So: If you don't understand the meaning of the lifeline I threw to you, then you don't understand and I can't convince you.

This is a truism masquerading as a conditional sentence - a zero-conditional.

It means When you don't understand, you don't understand.

In other words, You are a dope, and I can't help you see the point here.
