Celebrity Status Lyrics

Cover art for Celebrity Status lyrics by Marianas Trench

like everyone said, this is about how they're becoming more popular and their hard work is paying off. but can someone explain to me these lines :

"And I pray at the church of asses in the seats, I disappear behind the beat."

i dont understand this part D:

It's fairly simple.

Now that they are famous they pray to the church of asses in the seats. Meaning they only care about people showing up to their concerts because if they don't they are screwed. I disappear behind the beat? Who they are is lost to the music.
