My interpretation of the song in general is that a person should be in control of himself; watching the trends, judging the people and systems that run things, inside and out, and concluding in flowing with the streams of harmony and love.
Some people been driving to fast
Some people still having a gas
But if there's one thing you gotta concede
You gotta know who's driving your car
(Whichever way you go by naturally [full gas, intermediate or anything else] you have to stop and understand which way it is you go by.)
You get to sixth gear with your foot on the floor
Or else you're starring in "a cruise too far"
(If you're not optimized towards being the best you can be, you're just wasting yourself.)
Turn on, tune in, and cop out
Let it flow now mama
Turn on, tune in, and cop out
Let it flow become a woman
(Turn on your mind and senses, tune in to your inner truth and who you really are and cop out of the rat race/status quo mentality, thus becoming a mature person[woman/man]
Some people been wasting their time
Some people expanding their minds
But if you've known love like the jokers before
Then you're likely to be home on the range
No more the cowboy gottsa flaunt his wares
He's been grazing on a different plain
(Wherever you are in life, of you know the power of love, that's what you'd probably strive for. No more cowboy/tough guy bs, but relaxed easy livin)
Well, it's easy to see why the thousands of people
Are regularly turning it out
And it's easy to find when you mess with your mind
That you've gone beyond a reasonable doubt, yeah
(It's understood why the ones who get it go for it and when you start analyzing and rationalizing you only prove you're lost)
