Well it's a lot more than just visiting his drug dealer. He is walking through his old neighborhood reminiscing. "thought about my babies grown, thought about going home, thought about what's done is done, we're alive and that's the one" he's letting go of all the crap in the past and enjoying being in the here and now.
So sad. I choke up when I hear this song. Seems he had reached the point where he was at peace with himself only to be taken too early.

@joestrummersgirl this feels like a combative response to something heartfelt I posted 6 yrs ago, so let me point out anyone who thinks dying at 50 isn’t taken away too early must have youth and naivety on their side. I assume someone that names themselves after said singer understands that he struggled with leaving London for the suburbs, but did so for his children. Quite simply the proof is in the lyrics - he’s alive and that’s all that matters to him. When you have the clarity to come to that realization, it indeed means, you’re at peace.
