Lyrics:
When they control the values of the youth Then they can do what they want.
Yeah, we all heard the tapes.
There’s no excuse for the crimes of the church. Keep it hidden with the children they hurt.
Stay protected. Stick together. We cannot let this get out.
All our sermons are important, But business comes first.
Casket cradle innocence. Scripture for my benefit.
I am god.
I am gone.
What’s the cost?
I am god.
Separate everything, everyone.
What did you see? Or didn’t see? Keep your eyes shut.
Fuck the way you mistreat them.
Fuck the reason you have a confessional.
Fight or flight escape.
Fight or flight escape it.
Zion is their torture chamber.
This always happens. Accusations. We cannot let this get out.
All our sermons are important
But business comes first.
Casket cradle innocence
Scripture for my benefit.
And if you think the heavens chose you to lead Then you can do nothing wrong.
Nothing wrong.
I am god.
What’s the cost?
Separate everything everyone.
This always happens and we can’t let it get out!!
Flight or fight escape it. Flight or fight escape. Nothing is important as the business.
He is one of us.

One of my favourites off the record so far. That intro hits so hard and this is probably the heaviest song off the album. Band is top notch.

[@EmirOfOoey-Gooey]

Swear to god it's like the "otherside" of punch drunk 🥴 ❤❤❤ Love this and them

[@deiradinn]

This whole album should have millions of plays I swear, people are deaf if they're not listening to this.

[@RottenlyMoodyChild]

Can we get Donny acting as a sleazy megachurch leader in the music video? I know HTS videos are usually more subtle and less on the nose. But I just got this image of Donny in my head being the quintessential sleazy but charismatic megachurch pastor/leader standing at the front of a congregation in a large church.... and then when the chorus drops he's singing in front of a huge choir and the other band members in their robes. I am god, him licking his lips. I am god, him counting handfuls of dollar bills, etc etc etc

[@arealhuman2409]

You should honestly direct music videos cuz that'd be sick

[@C.M.M.23]

Fund it. 👌

[@demoizellez]

[@pgtccg]

[@Ordoxable]

It was the intro for me

[@davidanderson252]

Whole song. Fuckin smacks!

[@corynthius8860]

Bro's voice is literally flying

[@49crows]

for me, the growl in the beginning of "Casket" sends me reeling every time

[@arealhuman2409]

Fav from this album for now! This one's fucking amazing

[@paigegilmar]

Holy fuck. Best album of the year?

[@C.M.M.23]

This song, and Polka Dot Dobbins have both come out in the last 2 years- and they're both top of my list. We don't deserve this much blessed music.

[@C.M.M.23]

I have no reason to lie. I called it before I even listened to it. Tithe is THE best song on the album. I am going to be thrashing to this for WEEKS. HTS, p l e a s e do at least 1 more song like this. 🙏🙏🙏

[@DC77744]

2:38 makes me cry everytime. i love this band, this album is a 10/10, but this song... i mean, it's literally the best thing i've ever heard. i'm a drummer, maybe that's it, lol.

[@Donneigh.]

Fuck, This album is absolutely incredible. I’m almost left completely speechless. This entire album is just.. - Fuck.

[@catslotus]

god this song is way too good ive listened to it 20 times already

[@scribblesbysilly]

I can't stop replaying this song it's actually so incredibly good 🫠 the vocals especially at 1:02 make me want to spontaneously combust from how amazing they are 😭🖤 I love every song from Divine Inner Tension, but this is definitely among my faves

[@DC77744]

me too. I was into the first half of the album for weeks, now i can't stop listening to the second half. this band is perfect.

[@Terryhintzz]

[@austinrandall1273]

[@allisonbites]

That massive chorus gave me total Muse vibes ughh I love this song, probably tied with I Saw You Hanging for favourite on the album!

[@uhhh9992]

WHAT FUCKING TUNING IS THIS IN

[@C.M.M.23]

I believe this is drop-GOD tuning. 😂

[@Zacinkstatattoo]

🤘

[@corynthius8860]

1:54. Am ready to fight

[@Ordoxable]

The chorus is giving avenged sevenfold

[@ElaineClush]

This one resonates. Fuckkkkkk.

[@Bob-ti3oq]

1:55 🍳😫🦀🦀🦀🦀🦀🦀🦀🦀🦀🦀🦀🦀🦀

[@Jotedjoy]

Ugh so fucking peak. Stank face the whole time

[@rthd]

What about churches though that actually do good?......

[@arealhuman2409]

The song just isn't about those?

[@manarthemagic7714]

I'm pretty sure they are referencing churches that take advantage of the people that go. Sadly that is a lot of them. Doesn't mean that there aren't any good churches, they're just pointing out the hypocrisy of those that are bad.

[@ObsidianChariot]

Sigh...if the shoe fits.

[@memehivefive9852]

This song is mainly about the bad megachurches though not the good ones
