To start over here and now
'Cause this world is, the way it is, it's how we raise our kids.

I feel this whole song is just one big motivator to be good parents and to raise your children up the right way so the world can be a better place and these lines emphasize that. He is saying how if we want the world to be free, to be a better place, then we all have to work at it. We all have to be good and respectful parents because our kids are the future of the world and whatever we do reflects in them; therefore if we enforce positive things in our children, positive things will come out and that can change the world.

our kids can play,
In the streets with no fear of them being taken away.
Fathers raise their sons with respect and love,
Handle anger and pain with no need for no guns.
If we hope to be free it

Kellin is talking about how he hopes the world will be someday. He hopes that kids can freely play outside without the fear of them being kidnapped, and that fathers (and probably parents in general) will raise their sons (or children in general) with respect and they will handle arguments civilly.

my daughter?
This little baby, she means the world to me.
Will I relive their mistakes?
Or do things the right way,
For her sake.
I am free now,
Free

Kellin is questioning what kind of man he will be for his daughter, Copeland. He obviously loves her very much, so he does not want to be the kind of parents his own parents were. He wants to do things the right way so she grows up right.

Free to live without my fears.
I believe now
There's a reason why I'm here.
It's to try

I feel the chorus talks about how Kellin feels free since he is older, and he is free now from youth and the struggles that came with it and all the expectations. He believes there is still a reason he is here and he made it past his struggles.

Though he raised me like he should,
Did he understand me? No, no, I don't think so.

This first part discusses how his father was there physically, but he was distant and even though he raised his son as he should have, he did not understand him or care to understand.

The girl told him that they've been growing apart to probably not have him suspect anything, but really it was probably just an excuse for her to go out and find somebody new. Last line is pretty much self-explanatory.

She found a boy she knew she'd change
I changed my clothes, my hair, my face
To watch us go our separate ways
She said we've grown apart for
She found a boy she knew she'd change

This part is discussing how the girl actually just used him, making him sort of a "project" for her to see how many things she could change about him, and he fell for it so he changed at least one thing which is his appearance.

your precious time
'Cause you're such a pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty face
But you turned into a pretty big waste of my time
I don't wanna take up all your time
'Cause you're such a pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty face
But you turned into a pretty big waste of my time
You're the lowest type
'Cause you're such a pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty face
But you turned into a pretty big waste of my time
I don't wanna take up all your time
'Cause you're such a pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty face

The first line is a bit of sarcasm, saying how he doesn't want to speak too long because God forbid he wastes some of her precious time. He says how she was such a pretty girl, but she ended up being a pretty big waste of his time.

That's okay
I hope he takes your filthy heart
And then he throws you away someday

This part discusses how he figured the girl wasn't going to stay with him, but that is okay because he wouldn't want to be with a cheater anyway. He also says how he hopes the girl gets back what she did to him someday, by her new boy leaving her and hurting her like she did him.

This whole first verse tells the background of this story: there was a girl that this guy met when he was young, he loved her and he thought she did too, so he gave her everything, however she ended up cheating on him. She found somebody else that she liked better so she left this guy.

Now my night's so cold
When your heart is frozen
Mine's exposed you know this
Try to blame the fame for the way I've changed
And you know those claims are bogus
Baby it's not me, it's us
Maybe now all we need is trust
Maybe this Hennessey will solve our problems
Baby pick it up
When your heart is frozen
Mine's exposed you know this
Try to blame the fame for the way I've changed
And you know those claims are bogus
Baby it's not me, it's us
Maybe now all we need is trust
Maybe this Hennessey will solve our problems
Baby pick it up
These lines are talking about how when the girl is ignoring the boy (or having a cold heart towards him), it's like his night is cold too and his heart is exposed to everything. The lines "try to blame the fame for the way I've changed, and you know those claims are bogus" suggest that the girl may have left the guy because she feels him becoming famous has changed him. He, however, disagrees. He thinks all they need is trust and maybe some alcohol to solve their problems.

Leave me? (leave me?)
Girl how the fuck you gonna leave me? (leave me?)
Uh?! You know I love you, when we fight and we argue
I kiss and I hug you
You push me back, you say that I'm trouble
But every Bonnie got a Clyde with her
Girl how the fuck you gonna leave me? (leave me?)
Uh?! You know I love you, when we fight and we argue

This talks about how he loves her and he tries to be affectionate but the girl does not want it and she says he is trouble. Then MGK uses the analogy of Bonnie and Clyde to basically say every troublemaker needs a partner.

Leave me? (leave me?)
How the fuck you gonna leave me? (leave me?)
When I'm the one that's on tv
With these girls screaming
Outside with my cd
And I'm begging?
Naw baby, you're the one that can't keep me
How the fuck you gonna leave me? (leave me?)
When I'm the one that's on tv
With these girls screaming

And I'm begging?
Naw baby, you're the one that can't keep me
These lines are a bit of cockiness, basically saying how "I'm famous and I could have anyone I could want, but I still want you, so don't leave me."

This life goes by so fast
Pretty soon I'll grow old
What would I have but some stories now that I have told
No one to share them with
And when it's all done
What am I left with?
Tell me what's left
Pretty soon I'll grow old
What would I have but some stories now that I have told
No one to share them with
And when it's all done
What am I left with?
Tell me what's left
The first two lines are self-explanatory; the person feels life goes by fast and soon they won't be young anymore but old. Next, they discuss how all they will have is old stories and memories of their past, but they won't have anyone to share them with. Then they ask, what am I left with when this is all done?
