The song references Rivers' Stepfather and his alcohol issues. There is an interview in which Cuomo said how he once opened the fridge and he knew his Mother and Stepfather were about to split because his Stepfather was drinking again - "This bottle of Steven's awakens ancient demons, like Father, Stepfather, The son is drowning in the flood", the alcoholism of his stepfather reminds him of his biological Father and he believes their alcoholic ways have disadvantaged him and left him to pick up the pieces "drowning in the flood". "Jimmy" is another alcohol reference to Jim Beam.
