So I could be way off with this, but I think this song has to do with Jared's (lead singer) career as a teacher. I think it would be so cool to have a teacher like him in school, but I can see how his students would react after finding out their teacher is in a kickass band.
"Just ask my friends. I wouldn't do this if I didn't love it/ But I love it"
By this, I think Jared could be Jared's response to his students asking him why he's a teacher if he's in a successful band. He's explaining that he teaches because he actually does love it and that "[he's] always been like this"
The other line that hints toward this explanation is "I'm telling you kid..."

Overall, great song and great band
