This song is about Robbie's anxiety and depression, to put it simply, here's the quotes
Lemon Boy could is a character developed by Skinner to disassociate himself from “ the anxiety, the negativity and the illness that’s inside all of us”.
This song explores Robin’s relationship with Lemon Boy, how he affects Robin and his peers as well as his journey learning to learn more about and learn to live with Lemon Boy.
The “Lemon Boy” is symbolic of Robins depression – lemons are sour and unlikeable much like mental illness.
and then what Robbie said
"Lemon Boy is the anxiety, the negativity, the illness that’s inside all of us, and that is very strong inside me. A way of being happy for me is disassociating myself from those things, but also learning to live alongside them as a friend. I really hate Lemon Boy sometimes but he’s never going away, and I can use him for good (this album for instance)"
Edit: I got this from genius lyrics, btw

Especially at the end, this is what the song reminds me of:
A hero/protagonist was prophesied to be the best thing to happen for the world, and everyone assumes that means they will defeat the villain killing off the “hero’s”, so the hero defeats the villain aka “lemon boy”
Though the villain keeps coming back, and eventually the hero asks them why they keep trying to take apart the society everyone’s worked so hard for. They explain why, and the hero begins to side with hem, as they realize that the villain is right. their “friends” weren’t willing to see how they were the villains of the story.
So, the hero works with the villain in their cause and decides that there going to live forever, just them, and start the next generation over and make a world of their own.

When he said 'They weren't to keen on compromising with a nice lemon pie' at 1:22, he sounded so much like he was joking around with himself about it and it is now my favourite line in the song. Love it <3
