Time time time
Be be be
Grow grow grow

No no no
What is it that you think that you understand?
Who is it, God is laughing, laughing at your plans.
Everybody knows how not to be won.
Everybody knows how to just have fun.
Everybody knows what the hell they've done.
Everybody knows...
And so you think you're misunderstood
So you think that you're just no good.
You can't keep from the wrong from not being right
You can't make a black hole want to be bright
You can't turn your back on your own life
You can't turn your back...
Don't have the time not to wonder why
It's still got to be hello or goodbye
Take the time to grow something that ain't gone
Take the time to show what where you belong
You already know how to be that strong
You already know...
I'm tired.
Be be be
Grow grow grow

Man, this song..
At the beginning it's just reiterating ideas we know to be true. Or we think we know.
When there's a wrench thrown in your plans, it can make you question everything. It can make you ask if you're on the right path, or if you've got a rain cloud following you around. If you're meant to fail.
The lyrics are urging you not to be discouraged, and to flow with those new meanings to ideas/plans you thought you had already correctly defined. You can't change the circumstances, but you can change the way you respond to them.
