I'm sure they did the same for the song answers, and I've taken a shot to find meaning in the lyrics.
If you disagree in parts of them, or find a different meaning, or find meaning in those parts I couldn't understand, please post them and I'll update it.
To all of my children in whom life flows abundant
To all of my children to whom death hath passed his judgment
The soul yearns for honor and the flesh the hereafter
Look to those who've walked before to lead those who walk after

I found it strange how this song described our situation almost to the T. For example: we were the ones that life passed judgment on. Our souls are the ones that years for honor and our bodies yearn for new life. We are the ones that the new players will be looking for answers from in 2.0.

Coincidence? Possibly. But it is possible that the entire scenario was described to Uematsu-san before he wrote the song and he painted a foretelling of our fate in the lyrics, without anyone knowing. Which leads me to question how long this scenario had actually been planned out. Yoshi said that this had been planned during the staff change, but I have a feeling that it's been far longer in development.
