こんにちは、みなさん！
I'm trying to translate a Japanese song into English and there are a few lines that I'm not sure of. It would be great if you could help. ^_^
Here are the lines that are confusing me:
「I know 全部分かって全て分かってたつもり」 (he says "I know" in English)
I'm not sure how this should be worded.
「分かってるんだ 戻んないのはでも、でも
思う分は自由だろ？」
"wakatteru n da" obviously means "I understand" and "demo" is "but", but what does the rest of this part mean?
教えてくれますか？
ありがとう。

「I know 全部分かって全て分かってたつもり」
means "I know, I know everything, I thought I knew everything"
「分かってるんだ 戻んないのはでも、でも思う分は自由だろ？」
"I know, that you won't return, but I'm free to think about (you/it) am I not?"

助けてくれてありがとうございました！
That helps a lot, but what exactly do these words mean: つもり, 戻んない and 思う分? Those were the words that were making these lines hard to translate. ^_^;
The song I was translating is エトセトラ by ONE OK ROCK, by the way. I absolutely love that band and that's my favorite song from them. I've found that listening to Japanese music and watching Japanese shows/movies is really helpful when learning the language, even if I can only understand a few words and phrases here and there, because hearing the language on a regular basis has helped with things like pronunciation and getting my Japanese to flow nicely and sound more natural. It's easier to remember vocabulary that way too.
Anyway, thanks again. I have the whole song translated now, and I think it's all correct.....

Hi,
つもりliterally means "intention" or "plan" and can be written as 積もり. I believe the first time it mentions it in the RocketJapanese course is in relation to the structure "dict. form of verb+tsumori (desu)" to mean "I plan to do something".
Eg. そとで遊ぶつもりです。(I intend to play outside)
戻んない is from the verb 戻る（もどる）meaning "to return/turn back/to recover".
最終言葉分かりません。げめんあさい。I don't know the last one though, sorry.
