From what lyrics are audible, this song is a reverie on spirituality and posthumous judgment. “Grapes” are a symbol for redemption.
It seems unfair to Portner that some, for whatever reason, are not compatible with the typical path to salvation, and are provided with no clear alternative.
It seems...
What if what I be it can't pray
And it showed me what of my grapes
It's possible see come a time down grapes
And you should be able, quite, to buy grapes
And if I pay for all I say
Then what is the point what I build up today
Not a pen or a bucket from heaven down or
From a river to a heart down I never will go
