"Pride" meaning

i really, really like the song but i just wanted to know what you guys think the meaning of "Pride" is...? some say it's about people trying hard to get famous, people trying to be a star so that they'll be notorious and adored? Others say it's about freedom... which is it? Just curious how you interpret the song

I can repost the lyrics here:

PRIDE by ayu

"The freedom you have is so dazzling"
Said a girl
"Even if I can't find the meaning of my existence?"
I answered

Supposing man is a creature
Who is always asking for things he doesn't have
Ah, what is it
That we truly want to have?

And then
The girl just struggled and struggled
And when she noticed she was filled with emptiness
She had a new understanding

We always open the window to tomorrow
By dreaming
Ah, though we know
Nothing is certain in this world

Flowers are surely waiting for us
In a place we haven't yet seen
Before we are used to being bored
And our time passes quickly

Even if it's the end of the world
Even if people say with laughter that we are trying in vain
Let's go together
Because nothing is so fearful as giving up


I know, i made a similar thread in the discussion area... But this is more about the meaning of the song...

BTW thanks to everyone who's replied in my threads
