Bradford King was inspired by Duncan Trussell’s appearance on the Theo Von podcast, "This Past Weekend," and wrote the song around the ideas it prompted.

Lyrics
The messiah's returned through the phone in your hand.
Delivers your truth, gives you divine commands.
Serve your digital masters, praise the new king of kings.
Post all your confessions to the cloud so it brings you...
A bright new clear vision of the right path to salvation of your soul through the worship of self.
Buy your next savior with a coverage plan.
So you know who to worship and who to reprimand.
Gives us the meaning we long for and it promises youth.
But baby that's bullshit cause we’re just being used by those who want to own the future of your mind, heart, soul. They wanna control you through the worship of self.
Can’t take back these misunderstandings.
They help us keep dehumanizing.
If we let go now then how can we be winning?
Been careless with our love, self-cherishing.
