Contextual Analysis of "preconceptions" in Lyrics

i've bargained my bit with fate and all

i rolled the dice uncompromised

time manipulates your heart

begin to doubt my state of mind

while the hometown lots ready their nooses and their knots

while the political lions and tigers and bears

with the power of the cup we are about to astound

we are the brothers cup coming to your town

i'm having trouble finding out where i'm coming from

it's eternal human infection one chance

still ascended high in dreams

i only say this to affirm our time is short

i was in amsterdam smoking blue cheese and i had an epiphany

instead of investing in new businesses they buy new artillery
