I can relate so much to this. Working all the time, never getting paid what you should, because the bastards keep the wealth while you fail at life. And it's a horrible spiral. The money slips through your hands, as you struggle to make rent and pay bills, spend it on the vices you need to cope with the stress of it all.
The part about his parents I believe is due to the fact that if you come from that class you are likely to be stuck there, while those who came from money can be the bastards who keep themselves comfortable on the backs of their workforce.
It really sucks working 5 or 6 days a week, while struggling to pay rent and bills, have little, live in a shithole, and have no idea where to go from there. I see people on the street, and I fear, I can see how they got there, because despite being employed and having the same job for years, my cost of living keeps going up while my wage stays put, year after year. Then you have to take out loans to make rent, and at 20% you just dig yourself deeper. But you don't know how to make it out of that spiral...
I relate all too well to this song.
