When asked by Complex[7] about the meaning of the numbers, Skrilla said, “Everybody else got their own different meaning. But for me, it’s just ‘negative to positive.’ It helped me turn from a negative person to a positive person.”

In a comment to the Wall Street Journal[11] from the same timeframe, he also said, “I never put an actual meaning on it, and I still would not want to … That’s why everybody keeps saying it.”

So it’s a number repeated in a song that the artist says has no meaning, instead of it just being a meaningless number.

Glad you helped clear that up. Way to prove everyone wrong.
