This time, we can't go home
Reiterating that they cannot go home.

This time, we can't go home

I could hang my hat anywhere

I could start, I could finish here

It's the spark of a millionaire

Remind yourself, it's like magic

It's not average, it's more tragic
The artist is acknowledging that their situation is unique and has a sense of sadness to it.

More tribal, more savage
The situation has an intense and primal feel to it.

In a world where you're surrounded by the plastic
The singer is in a place where everything feels artificial or fake.

Free your mind and just lose it
The artist is encouraging the listener to let go, embrace the moment and enjoy themselves.

No test drive, just do it

This murder is so accidental

Us building is so monumental
Despite the circumstances, the singer feels like they are contributing to something significant.

Got me in my zone
The artist is in a mental space where they are focused and motivated.

Had to do my own
The artist had to work for their success without help.

That put me in my throne
Through their hard work, the singer feels like they have earned a position of power or authority.

This time, this time we can't go home
Repeating the same line from before to emphasize the importance of the situation.

This time, this time we can't go
An abbreviated version of the previous line used for emphasis.

This time, we can't go home
Repeating the first line once again for emphasis.

This time, this time we can't go
Another abbreviated version of the repeated line.

This time, we can't go home (this time, this time we can't go)
A final repetition of the first line, this time with a parenthetical callback to earlier in the song.

This time, we can't go home (this time, this time we can't go)

This time, we can't go
