Mat Kearney was recently interviewed about the City of Black and White album:
"Well 'All I Have' was the last song that I wrote on the record, and it was how we started the album off. I don't know, we just felt like, 'Here we go at it three years later,' seemed like a fitting first line, almost pushed like unpause on the record and on what I've been doing and what I've been up to. That song, to me, is very much dealing with the sophomore album thing, finding myself again and, all the songs that have been going on, on a year off, and the years I spend on the road. Feels like picking up where I left off."
I personally thnk it's a song talking to God, and talking about all the stuff out there in the world, in the media, in the music world or the "airwaves" and he's just talking to God again on his walk in life. Growing up, maturing, and moving forward.
