I know this probably isn't remotely what this song is about, but I always got a feel that it was referring to the Military. Most specifically the United State Military Academy at West Point. I think part, if not all, of the reason that I feel that was is I started listening to this album while I was at the Academy. But seriously, ever line can be directly related to the West Point experience.
I think you nailed it actually... interesting as fuck!

The song will always be about overcoming adversity in my world... but looking at it from that perspective it completely makes sense as a lecture to a disillusioned young soldier.

Regardless, your interpretation is brilliant. Kudos!

That actually would make a lot of sense, especially with the lines: "all your friendships find their graves" and "you signed up now make us proud"
