God
Substance D Lyrics

I stand at the threshold of man抯 trampled throne
My life has reached a point where I am at the brink of losing control, like a king who has lost his kingdom and is standing helplessly at the threshold.

I walk through broken pieces of my godless soul
My soul has been shattered into pieces due to my godlessness and I am walking on the broken pieces of my own identity.

I lied to the savior and prayed for retribution
I have been dishonest to the one who can save me and instead of seeking forgiveness and redemption, I have prayed for revenge and punishment.

I defy my demise
Despite my mistakes and sins, I refuse to surrender to death and choose to fight for my survival and redemption.

I walked through broken pieces
Continuing from the earlier line, I am still walking through the broken pieces of my soul, implying the struggle and difficulty of my journey.

I laughed at the altar and turned my back on love
I have irreverently made a mockery of love and have chosen to reject it, turning my back on it despite being offered to me.

Cursed my own existence, forgive me
I am regretful of my actions and wish to seek forgiveness for having cursed my own existence and adding to my own misery.

I raped the spirit of all that was divine
I have destroyed the purity and sanctity of everything that was once sacred and holy, leaving nothing but darkness and emptiness behind.

Cold dark and wicked is all that抯 left inside
As a result of my choices and actions, I am now filled with nothing but evil, darkness and negativity, leaving no room for anything positive or hopeful.

My God
A cry of desperation, a call for help from a higher power in order to find some salvation and redemption.

So help me God
A plea for divine intervention in one's life, a request for strength and guidance to be able to overcome their difficulties and find their way back towards the right path.

My vile life
Acknowledging the fact that one's life has been marred by their mistakes and sins, and that they need to seek forgiveness and redemption in order to change their ways.

My dreadful side, so help me
Asking for help in overcoming one's own negative traits and tendencies, in order to lead a better life and become a better person.

I抦 back at the threshold of man抯 trampled throne
I have come full circle and am once again standing at the threshold of losing control over my life, acknowledging that I need to change my ways in order to avoid repeating my past mistakes.

I walk through broken pieces of my fucking godless soul
The use of the word 'fucking' implies a sense of frustration and helplessness, as I am still struggling with the broken pieces of my soul and my godlessness.

I lied to the savior and prayed
Repeating an earlier line, emphasizing the gravity of the mistake of lying and praying for revenge instead of forgiveness and redemption.

I defy my demise
Repeating an earlier line, once again taking a stand against death and refusing to give up despite the difficulties and mistakes of the past.

So help me God
Repeating an earlier line, the plea for divine intervention and guidance to help overcome one's difficulties and find a path towards redemption and salvation.

My vile life (I walk through broken pieces)
Repeating an earlier line and also adding to it, acknowledging the fact that one's life has been sinful and in disarray, and that they continue to struggle with the broken pieces of their soul.

My dreadful side
Repeating an earlier line, crying out for help in overcoming one's own negative traits and tendencies that have caused so much pain and suffering in their life.
