In "Lane Boy," twenty one pilots challenge the pressures and expectations of the music industry. The song expresses frustration with being told to conform ("stay in your lane") and highlights the band's desire to maintain their creative freedom, even if it means straying from mainstream norms. They critique how commercial demands can stifle artistic expression, advocating for authenticity over perfection. The recurring question about whether people will be "alive tomorrow" serves as a metaphor for questioning the longevity and impact of conformist music in contrast to meaningful art that challenges the status quo. #CreativeFreedom #MusicIndustryCritique
