"But what my father did, no, it don't mean shit
I'm not him"
That part always reminds me of my father with my granddad.
My dad grew up in a small town and his dad was a lawyer. His entire life all he's ever heard of is how great a lawyer his dad was and how he should be one too and yadda yadda yadda.
My dad always responds the same way "My father was a great man, but I can't be the same man he was. We all have to find our own way."
I think this song really focuses on deciding on things for yourself (religion, the truth, your direction in life etc.) In the end no one can explain to you. People can help you and assist you and discipline and try to explain to you as much as they want but its up to you to figure it all out.
