Here's what I think happened; you first eq-ed your vocals to be closer to what you hear in your head ("so bottom heavy"), then you produced your bass to sound close to other tracks in that field.

This now clashes in the low-mid and results in hard to understand lyrics. I suggest you leave the bass (or gate it just a little) and take some of the low-mid out of the vocals, adding some high-mid. I predict that would add more energy to your track and that the improved intelligibility will make it more catchy as well.

Good luck

I think Kassen has a good point. I was thinking the same thing (sorta) when I was first listening to the song but wasn't able to articulate like he did. I think the vocal part should be the dominant part. It's a nice voice and the lyrics are good too.
