This is a song about recovery particularly Hetfields alcoholism and rehab.
It's about being told how to act and feel, rehab is conditioning and if you ever watched 'Some Kind of Monster' you would 100% understand this song. Hetfield came back from his rehab completely different, toned down, family focused, and tame.
'Not only do I not know the answer, I don't even know what the question is'
Refers to rehab therapy and this new conditioning.
'It's my world you cant have it' is a phrase meaning that hetfields not used to this new lifestyle and is finding it hard to accept this new way of thinking that is being forced onto him. His doctors were getting into his thoughts and 'trying to make me someone else instead'
'Clouds will move on soon'
'Gotta sit right back and enjoy this ride' shows that hetfield was not happy about requiring therapy for his anger and alcoholism but he knew it was the right thing to do.
At the end of the song 'Enough's enough' refers to hetfield being overwhelmed by his alcoholism and rejecting his past self.
Just watch 'Some Kind of Monster' the whole album becomes very clear.
