i feel like this song is about his life in general. he feels like he's missed out on things and has made mistakes and eventually found himself. kenny grew up in the music industry and i think that has a lot to do with this song. he had to climb up to the top, then he decided to start over and write for the love of music and not just write what people tell him to. so now he's back at the bottom again. "in this foreign place i've never known" i think is about being on his own making music and not having to care about anyone elses opinions. believe it or not even though it's a slow mellow song i think it's a very happy song about self realization.
