Yeah, that's what I feel to be the gist of it.

This is a song of reaching out to those who feel not part of it, who are still striving in their own way.

The vantage point of the singer is of one who has been through it and now reaches back to encourage those others who may feel like despairing.

A song of encouragement, of urging onward, of not giving up. Because you can get through.

Interesting - for a song to reach people in some of their down emotions, the song has to be at that level too, but then the craftsmanship comes through when it perks it up, which I think this song does. It's reaching down low, with a hand out to comfort or assist.
