I have this problem, as well. Distorted amplification, song lyrics, speech against loud background noise? Forget it. Oddly, I got a pair of Shokz bone-conducting headphones recently, and noticed that I have been understanding lyrics for the first time in songs that I've been listening to for 30+ years. (I should really listen to that song about how "Shareef don't like it; Fuck the passport, fuck the passport."

yeah, same. i dont seem to have any problem with my ears per se, it seems more like a processing/noise filtering thing in my brain that's not working at full power. i think my dad had it too.
