This song seems to be about the damage that parents unwittingly cause their children by forcing their own ambitions onto their children. Such as a parent deciding that their child WILL be a doctor or a lawyer with no regard for what the child may want for themself. Then, when the child comes to the realization that this is either not what they wanted or that they feel it is too late to change trajectory, they are left feeling robbed of their agency.
