The beginning alludes to the actual battle of Hampton Roads. This song is basically an indictment of humanity, and a call to solidarity, to rejecting what you've been told and trusting yourself. At the end, it seems to describe a punk who knows he'd be nothing without mainstream society to rebel against.
I don't feel that this song is a call to solidarity, due to the line "solidarity's gonna give a little less than it'll take." I seems like it is the realization that the protagonist's internal civil war (the desire to be a better person vs embracing what you already are) is a draw, just the like the Battle oh Hampton Roads
