Ok judging from the video i would say that this song is about his ex girlfriend finishing him for a man with money and a flash car, he's interpreting both sides (lower class and higher class) to people who have been through the same situation including myself, even the seperate beds, The video then shows that his ex isnt truly happy even tho she now has all the things she always wanted with the different lifestyle of living, showing that just because you dont have stacks of money, your own house or your own car, doesnt mean that a person with all tho's things that you cant provide is any better or nicer of a person then you.., hence at the end of the video when she gets back with her ex because she knows she made a mistake and still loves him even tho he has nothing better to offer.

See money isnt the route to happiness, Just being yourself and taking people for who or what they are is..

Its a great song, it makes me think of just how my ex must being feeling now when she found that out herself.., finishing me for my ambition and my job...
