he's having a dig at bands who change their sound to 'make it' - "your so perfect to please us, you make all the right noise" - and warning people of the fakers - "i dont know who sold you that baby but it's a fake". i dont know, its one way of looking at it.
i can also see that he's singing from the point of view of a critic maybe? the verses in the song are incredibly negative, raging at the state of the industry, yet the chorus is uplifting, maybe the "your art it brought me to my knees" is a reference to genuine music, like his own. again, just an opinion
