I kind of think of this song as someone learning to be themselves and not worry about everyone elses opinion of them. I think "Let me go boys" is like asking everyone to stop and let it go. "push my boat off..." you know how people who care too much about other peoples opinions are like drowning themselves in self consciousness, it kills them emotionally. "swoop down from..." Is him trying to stop himself and not care and find who he really is. and Now his feet won't touch the ground and he is just going to live his life his way and be who he really is. He won't touch the ground and be like everyone else. It all sounds stupid when I try to explain it, but it make sense in my head. I guess that is just how it touches me, even though it might not make sense.
