Does anyone know the meaning of the new Stone Sour song "3030 150"?

What does "3030 150" mean? I heard a band member on the radio say that it has a definite meaning, but that they would leave the fans to figure it out for themselves. I've listened to it several times now, and can't seem to figure it out.

    I've been wondering about the meaning too. I found the lyrics but still cant figure it out

    I am a dominant gene- Live as I die

    Never say forever cuz forever's a lie

    I can see right through it so I can't ignore you

    The story changes but the ending will bore you

    I tried to tell you but you simply obeyed

    They didn't listen so they threw you away

    Now all you do is talk - I don't wanna hear your bullshit

    Is this what you want?!

    This is where it begins

    This is where it ends

    This is where it begins

    And this is where it ends

    They called us a dead generation, they told us that we wouldn't survive

    They left us alone in the maelstrom

    As you can see we're all plenty alive

    We know where you are and were coming

    Lets see you say that **** to our face

    30/30-150 Remembers 30/30-150 HATES

    In my own peculiar way I feel mercurial

    Before I get ahead of myself again

    I know the where but I still don't know the when

    You wanna live in a one sided world

    Be prepared for a whole other herd

    Now with the grand facade

    I dont want to be an angel

    I just want to be GOD

    They called us a dead generation, they told us that we wouldn't survive

    They left us alone in the maelstrom

    As you can see we're all plenty alive

    We know where you are and were coming

    Lets see you say that **** to our face

    30/30-150 Remembers 30/30-150 HATES (HATES)

    OHHHHHHHH

    I am a ******* machine fueled by the past

    Memory's a memory until it's a fact

    I can bury the hatchet and let some **** go

    But I got too many grudges to hold!

    Saw a lot of people die in the end

    I never want to walk that road again

    Now I will never give up

    I don't want to have it all, I JUST WANT TO HAVE ENOUGH

    This is where it begins

    This is where it ends

    This is where it begins

    And this is where it ends

    They called us a dead generation, they told us that we wouldn't survive

    They left us alone in the maelstrom

    As you can see we're all plenty alive

    We know where you are and were coming

    Lets see you say that **** to our face

    The title comes from Taylor's jeans size (30/30) and weight (150 lbs) during his high school years - which this entire song is a throwback to. The reason the song is titled after the physical characteristics he had during that time is because he felt that there were many that disbelieved in his ability to amount to anything (particularly at that time ), and as suggested by the lyrics, he is now proving them wrong (Wiki)
