I think in this song the speaker is the actual religion of Judaism and it’s speaking to Christianity and Islam. It’s stating that both of those religions are simply different time/cultural interpretations of the same concept. Unfortunately ethnocentrism is so strong that they all hate each other for thinking differently. SOAD sees this and is basically telling them to all calm down and quit trippin’. It’s the same damn thing so quit hating each other. Quit fighting each other. “You took the legend for its fall, you saw the product of it all” is pointing out that after all these hundreds of years these three different monotheistic sects are trying to claim the same God, and with him his legends, and look how it turned out in the end…violencenad hate Now that we see that it didn’t work it’s time for us all to accept and respect all different religions because we’re all reaching the same “promise to the end.”
