Message of the song is pretty much to love life and enjoy it even where everything is shit. You can always find bright spots in the what you thought were the worst of outcomes.
Both were raised up in poor environments.
POS story is the more positive as he first sees his kid wieght dragging him down, "freedom stripping" him. but he later comes to love him though Im not sure what he means after that.
Astro's version is a little different as I see his son getting into trouble and just being a screw up. I get this idea from verse about having his son where he calls him a "smoking gun". His take on life is much more bleak, reminding me of the comedian from the story Watchmen. All he can do is laugh, "life is just a string of jokes all connected".
Pretty straight forward song to me.
