Magnum Opus is Latin and translates to “great work” or could mean an artist’s greatest work or achievement. It could mean from the title that his work hasn’t reached its full potential yet, and there is still much better to come.
[Verse 1]
Hey, Mr. Cage Man
Let me get a fresh breath
Cherry bomb, headstrong
I could fake my own death
Hey, Mr. Fate Man
Shuffle me a ninth life
I've been wrong, go long
Throwin' me a sharp right
[Pre-Chorus]
It's not a picture-perfect life
Not what I had in mind
Let me write my own line
[Chorus]
I've got this place
That I've filled with empty space
Oh, I'm trying not to face what I've done
My hopeless opus
I'm in this race, and
I'm hoping just to place
Oh, I'm trying not to face what's become of me
My hopeless opus
[Verse 2]
Hey, Mr. Safe Man
Hustle me an okay
I could slide, take a dive
Take it for the home team
Hey, Mr. Post Man
Slip me one more green note
I've been low, hit the floor
Looking just to make broke
[Pre-Chorus]
It's not a picture perfect life
Not what I had in mind
Let me write my own line
[Chorus]
I've got this place
That I've filled with empty space
Oh, I'm trying not to face what I've done
My hopeless opus
I'm in this race, and
I'm hoping just to place
Oh, I'm trying not to face what's become of me
My hopeless opus
[Bridge]
Hey mister c-, Hey, hey mister, hey Mr. Cage Man
Cherry bomb (Margana na si ereht)
Let me ch-ch-ch cherry bomb
Ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch cherry bomb
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
I've got this place
That I've filled with empty space
Oh, I'm trying not to face what I've done
My hopeless opus
I'm in this race, and
I'm hoping just to place
Oh, I'm trying not to face what's become of me
My hopeless opus

According to his website,
With time comes wisdom. I see this man as looking back on life realizing the mistakes he has made. All his past years. All his regrets, challenges, triumphs, and joys. He is reflecting on everything that made him who he is today; asking himself, if he could go back and beg...
