There are a couple of levels to this. In one sense the lyrics are especially true or vivid or natural - they have not been processed by a record company to sell records to kids, think of the difference between raw sugar cane and processed sugar. The singer might be describing a break-up in a way that the emotional pain is communicated to those who hear the song. There are also visual ideas of raw meat here - this singer had been wounded by the experience that they are describing and the wound is still open and painful.
Hope this helps.

Hi Baron, in this context, 'raw' can mean that the song lyrics are very emotional.
