Can't Steal My Heaven
Heaven's Embrace: A Journey Beyond Material Yearning
Lyrics
Can't steal my heaven
Emphasis on the unassailable nature of the singer's heaven, indicating it cannot be taken away.
Can't steal my heaven
-Can't steal my heaven
-Cause heaven's already my home
Assertion that heaven is already a present reality for the singer.
When I was younger I was so depressed
Reflection on past feelings of depression during youth.
That's because I was focused on the mess
Attributing the depression to a narrow focus on chaos or problems.
I had a one-track mind everything had to be mine, mine, all mine
Describes a possessive mindset, wanting everything to be owned exclusively.
But that ain't a way to live a good life
Recognition that this possessive attitude is not conducive to a good life.
No that ain't the way to feel all right
Acknowledges the negative impact on well-being and the need for change.
I had to move outside, look beyond the limit
Decision to broaden perspective and look beyond self-imposed limits.
Lines, lines, old lines
Repetition of "lines" suggests overcoming boundaries or obstacles.
Can't steal my heaven
Reiteration of the singer's unwavering conviction that heaven is secure.
Can't steal my heaven

-Just look at it through a different lens
Suggests adopting a different perspective or mindset.
Off with the pants, up with the Depends
Metaphorical imagery of removing inhibitions and embracing maturity ("Depends").
Take a long view
Encouragement to take a long-term view of life.
You're just a little cub you got a lot of years to cheer up
Advises someone young to be optimistic and patient.
But if you're rather stay mad at the world,
Option for those who prefer to remain angry, acknowledging personal choice.
Go ahead that's fine
-It's your watch and your time, baby
-But as for me, I'ma make the most
Commitment to making the most of life with a positive attitude and resilience.
With a little bit of cash and
-A lot of heart that you'll never take from me
