We've got a brand new dance
Introducing a metaphorical "brand new dance" as a symbol of societal change or resistance.
It's called we've got to overcome
Encouraging the idea of overcoming challenges or obstacles.
We've got a brand new dance

So Johnny just keep pushin' 'cause the streets are yours
Encouraging Johnny to persist in facing difficulties, claiming ownership of the streets.
There'll come a day, when all that shit won't matter
Suggesting that a day will come when current problems won't matter.
