Probably I'm a bit late but I just realized they left out this part from the video version:
So then I went in my pocket took my wallet on out
With my pictures of my family and girl
This is the place that you choose to be with me
When you thought you could be in another world
I understand that sometimes songs need to be edited for video and to be a single, but this is a crucial part of the song, without it it has a totally different meaning. This is the punchline so to speak, the whole moral of the story that gives it depth.
I absolutely hated it when they tried to make the sad and socially critical story of Hollywood Tonight into some Hollywood success story. Now, they are doing this to APWNN as well. I really really hate this. I find it very disrespectful. As if they are saying "we do not care whatever moral story Michael wanted to tell in a song, let's make it as light weight for mass consumption as possible".
