This song is about Christianity as many of you have pointed out. Here's my interepretation of how.
The song is called The New Cult King, I feel that this refers to the singer's idea of creating a new religion. Somewhat tongue-in-cheek and sarcastically. An imagined future.
In the next big (I thought he said fake) religion, I do the cross thing. I think this refers to being like Jesus. The cross thing represents martyrdom, the startup of any new religion.
Godfiend refers to a Christian's need/desire to believe in God. They fiend for it. They can't handle life without believing in God, therefore they do and never shake loose from it.
The parts about inheritance and proving something have been explained by UnrealsKY.
The rest of the song I consider to be just the quick thoughts in the stream of consciousness that one encounters while questioning religion.
