Based on both the video and album artwork, this song is about the birth of Papa Emeritus. The album artwork features Papa standing atop a tall building, overlooking a Gotham-like city, having thrown a woman off the top. The video also features this image at the end, but goes into further detail. Papa Emeritus goes from a student, brought into a secret, power-wielding organization which wants to control mankind to and adult, the figurehead of this "global elite." In the end, the human that will become Papa Emeritus rejects this power and escapes the NWO type society by flinging himself off a building, only to be reborn as Papa Emeritus and return power to the people.
The lyrics build on this theme. Papa wears a crown of independence, having refused to join the hidden power structure. His fall from the pinnacle to the street below ultimately leads to his rebirth, and a return of power to the people.
