they can't really leave their car in the middle of the street to come assaulting me

I'd be careful, I've had this happen twice.

Yeah, I feel like what that insight "means" is in the eye of the beholder. It's definitely not great in the context of the original song either, but it's a bit less in-your-face.

I think these characterizations point very strongly toward nostalgic longing and away from the glorification of addiction or even that of drug use.

There's also an extra verse, which wasn't in the radio edit, that I think further supports what you're saying.

For what it's worth, that line is a sample from an Ultramagnetic MCs song.
