I think this one is easy. The world is telling him that his life as a musician is a dumb idea, that he'll never make it and he should forget about it. But that's what keeps him going. When they put him down and what not, that's when he goes and makes music.
What's interesting, though is he basically calls them hobos when he says they burn your trash cans. It's cool beacuse it's like they are the low-lifes who have to burn papers and empty trash cans to stay warm, but they're telling him that he'll never make it.
