Cover art for Mockingbeat lyrics by Tool

God beats his challenge at the end of the album delving into the nature of existence to discover he is truly the creator of all life and it will be the best forever after his challenge. From 2019 where God hadn't done his challenge yet, 7empest was a message that it will be just a "tempest", but after, listening again in 2025, 7empest plays revealing the interpretation "a tempest must be just that", is about understanding all metaphysics to prove he is God and then his challenge that there was a tempest in the years in between has passed and the good part of life can start.

Mockingbeat though is just some birds mocking him still somehow as he is learning to accept himself as God after his challenge. A voice says about the birds after "that's fucked up" but it is simply a catharic mocking to finish the album because God must man up and prove to the world now he is God.
