I agree with that for the most part except i think it maybe be more personal to the write (david i assume?) big d and the kids table are a great band.. but they went through lots of rough times and spent some times bumming off friends and living in friends' houses.. i think.. i may have gotten my information messed up.. but i know they definitly dont live the lives of rockstars and they are just normal people. but david probably looks around at his friends... who at age 22 are finishing up college and getting a set plan for life.. and he may have been confused as to whether he was making the right decision doing he something he loves (playing in a band)
"When I was younger, I didn't know life meant falling into place
Taking over a menuel position that meant nothing to you in the first place"
in this song he seems to argue both sides of the points of doing what you love or doing what is best for you financially and such... which shows that at the time he may have been confused about his decision.
"Well there's a cycle I won't be part of, but not because I don't think it's right"
he doesnt want to insult anyone who may have chosen the life because he himself is not sure what is right and wrong.
he just wants to send the message that think about your life dont get caught up in it and end up doing somethin gyou hate just because people persuade you do.. do what you love even if it means going against the norms.
then he lists all the "good lucks" which all describe the ideal life for someone.. and he is wishing you luck and hopes you can achieve all of these goals.
