Two lines of lyrics from Daniel Powter "free loop"

Hi guys,
I found it diffcult understanding what exactly the two lines mean (as a whole):
I've been fabulous through to fight my town a name.
I'll be stooped tomorrow if I don't leave as them both the same.
I read the first line as saying:
I've been feeling totally great fighting for a good name for my town.
As for the second, I can't even figure out how the "if" clause can be explained in grammar, if any.
Most translations I can find see the second as saying:
If I don't leave, I'll be just as stooped as they both are.
But I doubt that. What or whom is "them" referring to? Why use "both?" Of what?

Would someone please help me with it?
Thanks a lot!

I can't make any sense out of it. I had to check wikipedia to see if Powter was a native speaker.
