So compelling to me that these two lines are right after eachother in the song..
"As a kid I never understood what I observed, Some of it was strange but most of it disturbing"
"Always in detention for the lack of my attention, You can call it deficit, really I just didn't listen"
In one sense he is saying he never fully grasped all the shit going on around him while growing up, but on the other hand he says ya i was fully aware of what was going on but i just let them call it whatever they wanted to. Allowing society to label him as they pleased but he never cared because all he cared about was trying to survive. Point is, kids are much smarter and aware than people give them credit for and until we give them their individuality and push them to strive at their passions, the kids dont stand a chance.
