It seems many people got the meaning wrong about the lyrics of this song, but it's all subjective, so there is no right or wrong opinion technically speaking.
Two things may have happened.
The kid shoots up his school and dies or gets taken down and arrested (there is no coming home usually from this). Also this one is most unlikely honestly, so consider 2 and 3
The kid shoots his dad, then shoots up his school the next day and dies.
He isn't shooting up the school first cause he wouldn't be getting back home.
Then there is option 3. He doesn't shoot up the school, but does kill the dad with his own gun.
So this post may be long, but to start things off, daddy is at work, the young teen is looking through his dads closet and finds the gun and (what else you can imagine) which isn't described as to what else he found, but it's a figure of speech from the singer that can't describe all the crazy things his dad has had in the closet along with the gun.
The teen is now considering shooting up the school, and his father, talking to himself and the cigarette as he smokes it. This shows he is at home and is going to wait for his daddy to come home late, the dad is abusive and a drunk, the teen is waiting for the surprise which is his dad beating him or attempting to beat him cause he didn't get dinner ready for dad when arriving, instead dinner is in the freezer in the kitchen on ice and hasn't been started, just to make the dad angry and wanting to beat his son as punishment.
However the son is locked and loaded as the lyrics implied (i been waiting for a long time, with the sleight of my hand thats now a trigger)
So he's going to shoot the dad first, then return to the school the next day and wreck havoc and shoot the students after dealing with the father.
Again the chorus proves the school shooting is going to happen but maybe it didn't and it's just him having fun with twisted thoughts while waiting for his father to come home late. He did shoot his father 1000% as revenge for being abused all those years and had enough of being ordered and bossed around, that's for sure. It's just the school shooting which may or may have not happened and is left up to the listnener or lyric reader to decide. I'm going to say he did go and shoot the school the next day and killed maybe 3 people and then himself.
Only part of me that thinks he may have not shot up the school is he has a revolver and not a AR. However, theres been many shootings of mass murder just with hand guns and i think event revolvers, and doesn't need to be like 10 plus people in body count. So after killing the dad, he had 5 bullets left unless he found ammo for a 6th, and then up to 5 targets before shooting himself in school. So his total body count would be around 5.
Either way, he killed his dad.
