This entire song is just one big metaphor. When he talks about a pang and looking for apple pie but can only corn chex he's saying -- "i want to make it big but i cant quite make it." and the part about corn chex being satisfying means that even though i'm not in the limelight and only small time -- I'm still happy. "Had my mind set to hit them streets/Drizzle from the night left the cold puddles out/Had my black stomp boots on my feet" = i wanna go out and make it big(hit the streets), but I'm running into complications(Drizzle from the night left the cold puddles out). But, luckily I'm strong (black stomp boots). Then he goes on to explain how he feels about what he just metaphored. Trashing king bass strumming!
