Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
All my peoples
All of my peoples
Everything's a-OK (it's all good)
We've been waiting way too long
So tell the DJ can play my song
All my peoples
All of my peoples
Everything's a-OK (it's all good)
We've been waiting way too long
So tell the DJ can play my song
I kind of feel like I deserve this
Butterfly's all up in my stomach like a first kiss
Just a word smith usin' poetry and more
But distracted by these girls who want their Juicy Couture
Yeah, this life is all about materials things
I got kids tricks bitch, I'm the cereal king
And everything better if you relax and chill
So my seat back for weed naps we need that for real
I took my heart put it all out on a CD
You now rockin' with the bees knees
I'm the cat's pajamas, the coolest of the cool
The kid that got them gassed, tappin', usin' up their fuel
When they first heard em spit, didn't think that it will be shit
M-o-s-t to the d-o-p-e kids
Haven't seen you up in ages now you are hangin' with a G bitch
I want money, but they say I need Jesus
All my peoples
All of my peoples
Everything's a-OK (it's all good)
We've been waiting way too long
So tell the DJ can play my song

Everything's a-OK (it's all good)
We've been waiting way too long
So tell the DJ can play my song
I'm Half man-half amazin'
Flyer than a penguin, you dryer than a raisin
Hot like Cajun, bringin' all the girls to the Days Inn
Ready for a little love makin'
Yeah I want it now but they tell me have some patience
Feeling on top of the world since graduation
Now I do music all day cause there ain't no other option
Drivin' to Connecticut, then flyin' up to Boston
I put it on for my city always showin' love
Over-dose and drugs havin' people throwin' up
They say what up when I drop in
I'm just chillin' back in my seat, Joe Swanson
Yeah I used to steal iPods and pawn them
Now I take my girl shoppin', no problem
Live it up every second, life don't got a sequel
It's all good thumbs up to my people
All my peoples
All of my peoples
Everything's a-OK (it's all good)
We've been waiting way too long

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
