What is where the streets have no name meaning?

"Where the Streets Have No Name" is a song by Irish rock band U2, released in 1987 as the opening track from their album "The Joshua Tree." The meaning behind the song relates to the idea of how street names can reveal a lot about society’s class structures and how people are judged based on their address. The lyrics of the song represent Bono’s desire to break free from the confines of social status and identity that come with living in a specific area or street. Bono has said that the song was inspired by the streets of Belfast, Northern Ireland, where working-class areas are often grouped together and given generic names, rather than specific street names, in an effort to hide them from wealthier areas.
