No, not really. After unearthing the epiphany about self-determination, there is nothing else that Rain provides. No pithy commentary about the egalitarian unification that RB is mandating, no social speculation about the token inclusion of the colored gentleman at the very "end" of the video/song...
It's my opinion that Rainman "disappeared" at the point of unearthing the self-determination thing. I think just reading and trying to analyze the lyrics is a gateway to Hell. Rain is now most likely sitting in a black leather speedo, chained to a leg of Liberace's piano, lubricating the pedals as the pianist serenades Mephistopheles.
