I think this song is about how much of ones soul one needs to sacrifice to obtain a certain type of success. How stripped of originality some become in order to find so called financial freedom, which can in turn become a sort of trap. The song described a sarcastic celebration of reaching the pinnacle only to realize how much you've to give up to reach it.
