It's hard to imagine lyrics this intense being about something as mild as weed. Drugs in general i could see. I kinda think it's about his view of God. I know they aren't a Christian band because they don't "corporately accept the teachings of Christ", but Schuylar, I'm pretty sure, is a Christian and he writes the lyrics. The song as themes of someone not giving up on you ("You know I am all you need . . . you'll never get away"). Someone could be so far gone (You've got the devil's eyes), but God, in his view, will never let go. Also the line you ain't buying hocus pocus makes me think of religion. Sometimes I think that maybe all the Bible is is a bunch of hocus pocus, but God says no I am more than that. Hocus Pocus could also refer to a drug trip like he's saying no this isn't a hallucination, this shit is real. Idk, I'm leaning toward the religion interpretation myself.
