I think this song is describing me in a sence because up until recently (~2014) I have been completely verbal and able to speak without needing an iPad to speak for me. Thanks to traumatic events throughout my childhood, teenage years, and early 20s, plus me finally accepting my autism diagnosis from when I was about 13 rather than running from it and ignoring it I have found it more beneficial and less stressful to be nonverbal and to those that want the "old me" back that would talk, rap, and sing; "I'm right where I should be, don't try and fix me."
Due to some of the trauma I went through a lot of people wanted me to suffer and be driven insane by the silence of not being able to see those responsible parties held accountable for their actions; but I have found joy, comfort, and peace in the silence of being nonverbal so they have no right to try an "fix" me by trying to get the old me back and force me to become verbal again.
I know just a random though about how this song has meant something to me.
