After years of self-doubt, over-analysis of what direction to take his life in, and loss of faith in his academic abilities to pursue further education to improve his career prospects, this song speaks of Koom's improved mindstate upon making up his mind to pursue better things despite these avenues not being "perfect." He used what he was given, and made the best of it. "Blue skies" illustrates the freedom and improved mindstate of a struggling man who took control of his immediate future rather than punishing himself further for mistakes made years ago. Inspired by New Testament and personal redemption.
