Does "it's all these entwined" mean "it's the genome that is all these wound round"?

Context:

And finally, I added a verse about the genome:
It's a book of instructions, a record of history,
A medical textbook, it's all these entwined
It's of the people, by the people,
It's for the people, it's yours and it's mine.

My interpretation is this. The genome consists of three things, and all three things are wrapped around each other. The 3 things are a book of instructions, a record of history, and a medical textbook.
