The man has pseudo-friends who constantly criticize his actions. They moralize him, "teach" him and advise him to make a significant change in his life, because the way he is and what he does is not what they say it should be. They may find his life lame or immoral. They hold themselves up as role models. The man replies that he will make his own choices and decisions and he does not agree to unconditionally make himself under the influence of questionable quality advice. He justifies this by saying that there is always someone for whom he will be important, no matter what he does and no matter what he is. Although it is not said directly, I read it as meaning that he will always be important to himself in every way and he will always have his own support.
"Everyone is different and maybe that's a good thing, but you exceeded that mark 1000 times" - I remember very well how sad the words I once heard (from my peers and it was in negative context) at school made me feel.
Do you have a rocketship
I could fly?
Could we watch the world grow small
From the sky?
Set across and leave this place
For a while
We would leave
We would see
The world a different size
Let's fly a rocketship off the ground
Come on and break through the speed of sound
Sometimes I feel caged inside
My life span
If I saw the earth as a
Distant land
All my problems would feel like
Grains of sand
Sifted through
Sifted through
Sifted through my hands
Let's fly a rocketship off the ground
Come on and break through the speed of sound
Jesus above space
And time
Died so we don't have
To die
Jesus above space
And time
Died so we don't have
To die
Have to die
Have to die
Have to die
Have to die
Jesus above space
And time
Died so we don't have
To die
Let's fly a rocketship off the ground
Come on and break through the speed of sound
I could fly?
Could we watch the world grow small
From the sky?
Set across and leave this place
For a while
We would leave
We would see
The world a different size
Let's fly a rocketship off the ground
Come on and break through the speed of sound
Sometimes I feel caged inside
My life span
If I saw the earth as a
Distant land
All my problems would feel like
Grains of sand
Sifted through
Sifted through
Sifted through my hands
Let's fly a rocketship off the ground
Come on and break through the speed of sound
Jesus above space
And time
Died so we don't have
To die
Jesus above space
And time
Died so we don't have
To die
Have to die
Have to die
Have to die
Have to die
Jesus above space
And time
Died so we don't have
To die
Let's fly a rocketship off the ground
Come on and break through the speed of sound
