This is the only song that Andre 3000 did with his lover, and the mother of his children, Erykah Badu. They later broke up soon after this album was released.
The song is about humility, and accepting your place in life. Thus the line, "Humbe as a mumble in the jungle of shouts and screams".
The line from Isaiah states that no weapon formed against the followers of God shall be successful in battle. Andre 3000 is a Chrisitan and a Pacifist, who rejected the violent ways of his rough upbringing in the ghettos of Atlanta.
The lines beginning with "Too Democratic, Republic fuck it", refers to the lack of difference between the two political parties, and their inability to help the middle class.
"Blue-collar scholars, who'll take your dollar and wipe my ass wit it" refers to the union movement, and how they use dues to pay for economic studies that do nothing to help the working class. Both Andre 3000 and Big Boi were union members when they worked for UPS.
