You're the last person to support your truth.

Is he/she the only one who is still alive?

Since you've given us no context, we can only speculate what the equation means there.

This appears to be referring to a competition between two teams. "your side of the equation" then means "your team".

"Equation" here has a figurative meaning of a balance between two sides. "We" means that there are two (or more) on one side. You are the only one person on the other side. I think it means that our side is winning; all things are not equal in this equation of life.
