I thought this song sounded awesome, so I decided to look up the lyrics. I'm disappointed by them.
It looks like they're first addressing someone hopelessly relying on religion without any real grasp of it. That is not inherently bad to address, but the scope shifts over to viewing Jesus as if he wasn't really important at all.
"Am I a God, or am I Jesus?" So you're saying he wasn't God?
"And you can't deny
That your shit just tastes as sweet as mine
Sweet Jesus"
Sweet Jesus is either said out of exasperation in the form of an expression, or the word "sweet" is heavy sarcasm aimed directly at Jesus.
I'd like to know what the writers intent was, so I can have some sort of closure as to whether these lyrics are noble or ignorant. It is one of the coolest songs I've ever heard, after all. :(
@handicappedhero Agreed! It sounds like so much more text is in the song than the lyrics actually show. And yeah, having a hard time grasping the substance (if any) of them.
