Avenged Sevenfold - Creating God Lyrics

God damn the song is awesome

It's funny how people mention Tool.

Yet theirs hardcore Gun 'n' Roses vibes on Avenged albums...

Look up Coma by Guns...its deep and epic

This song is definitely painting out the dangers of creating AI which will come to be our god because we rely so much on tech. Lyrically genius

OMG this song is so rythmicly perfect ❤️

Syn solo = Creating Guitar god

So doomsday warning for artificial intelligence, right?

The lyrics remind me of the story of a man who created this operating system called TempleOS. It basically created sentences using random words and strings of text and the person who made it genuinely believed it was the word of God.

Terry a davis man. Amazing person!

But yeah thats what schizophrenia does to you. You simple don't know what's reality anymore.

3:01-3:31. JESUS!!!!

The song would make a pretty good movie tbh

That drum and guitar solo...

Drummer 🔥🔥🔥🔥.... Who's want this drummer?

This is genius as the kid from Iran this song has lot of meaning to me

One of A7X's grooviest songs

0:06 the drums are doing the same riff from minute 2:31 of Brompton Cocktail

This drum track is incredibly complex. Man he is amazing.

its got that scott weiland, stone temple pilots feel.... rip scott

Something far beyond the work of fiction, positronic brain.... man that drum fill is so fucking awesome!

I love Avenged sevenfold and Im only 13

"We creating god , master of our design " that part like roman sky song

Is there a drum/recording error at 1:49 ?

Brooks brings a new dimension to the group, he is on point in a rev-like way.

Dear Creating Goddamn Hate Us,this is so nice

My new favourite a7x track.

always thought it funny it went dear god, to god hates us now to creating god

Creating God music video shows the truth and lots of ideas from different points of views and opinions from many sources.thank you A7F.this is just one of my thoughts of how the video should be.

This song has an Alice In Chains groove

Amazing song!! I love the way he sings on this track!

songs tied for 1st with the stage....i love both songs....i've heard the stage live and it was amazing...brooks was dope and his solo was awesome as well 👍 A7X

Listen to the album at 1.25 speed and u ll get a heavy version of it

In seeking to understand god's gift to mankind...Intelligence and consciousness we are trying to replicated it in the form of an conscious AI. the act of creating a learning AI is the very thing that will lead to our inferiority.

Almost sounds like breaking point by BFMV, but awesome song nonetheless!

The drums are everything in this new album, holy shit, Wackerman is great.

The stage is hands down the best A7X album so far. It is a new sound that is fuckin amazing

Perfection.

Great drum on this song and Higher. Wackerman was a great drummer. Save me on nightmare was the toughest to play by Mike Portnoy but this song deserve in a top 10 of Avenged hard song to play!

This is a good one

Shadows brings a super heavy Alice in Chains vibe.

Listening at .75 speed unlocks the secrets

Is it Just me or does this song sound a bit like planets

some people make money to be a god...

I love this song......i wish they played this on tour with metallica or their own tour

The stage is a very grown up album and I love it. I love all aspects of Avenged. They rock man. I hope they don't ever slow down, although age will prevail

Time always wins 🙂

These songs have such depth. This is some great poetry.

I love this song
I got to hear them live twice and kinda wish i heard this....still love A7X either way

This is one of my fav Syn solos.

3:02 <3

Damn the drummer every time he nailed it...

That guitar in the intro is the most raw guitar I've ever heard lol.

Why do the verses sound like ballad of mona Lisa? 😂

I'm a christian, now I feel guilty cuz I think this shit is soo lit ... B..but b..but, god created us ! :(

Bryan Quinteros how is this song about AI control?

xDark Star117x the lead singer even says it how in the future AI can end up controlling us like a god

Bryan Quinteros yea but that has nothing to do with the song, this song is about the human race creating God, if you look at the lyrics it talks about Jesus and the superstition humanity created, and the things they created give the credit to their conception of God

Bryan Quinteros that interview (which i haven't seen) sure didn't talk about this song, as of late there hasn't been an interview on this song, but this song is about human superstition, God and religous denial on evolution

This song isn't really anti-religon, Matt is actually Catholic, born and raised. This song is about how computers have gotten so advanced, that we can basically create sentient beings. So in other words, "playing God".

The drums in this song are just magnificent!

this album is so diffrent from all of them and its AMAZING

I love the line "we're creating god, master of our designs." Man creates god, a being who supposedly created and designed man. Basically, religion tries to reprogram mankind.

Definitely about AI. Better tame your convictions before you go and open the cage.

Ya too bad it's like the most whiny chorus on the entire album :/ love the rest of the song though

it also mentions positronic brains, if you have ever read Issac Asimov its a dead giveaway, but the lyrics could actually be used to call out religion

Djentleman This song is about technological progress' imminent dominion over people, rather than God. The god that is being created is AI

This album is focused on future more than bygone age.

totally man

i dont like how the drums are mixed, sounds like cooking a bag of popcorn

but, still an amazing performance for an amazing song

That's cause you FUCKING suck

Jered Marriott u are right my good sir

I just noticed the nebula is a skull. I already knew the lightning bolts symbolized the deathbat wings, so cool discovery.

Damn avenged sevenfold never knows how to write a bad song. Love this.

*God Damn* she fine asf, she be *Creating God*

this should have way more views

Anyone else get a few tool vibes from this entire album

alice in chains

Alice in Chains, with a bit of prog to it, definetely.

best song

1:00 mark reminds me of Faith no more's Epic

soakedbearrd reminds me of scott weiland

good taste in champions and music

I have some terrible news...
you have..BUG EYES!!

messiah...

This song is sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet

it's okay, far from my favorite.

We need a powerful video for this song!!!!

I love how Matt sounds like Jimmy sometimes. It's got a slight nostalgic feel.

dem drums

The chorus reminds me of another song. When I first heard this song I swore I had heard something similar before but I can't figure it out.

Sky482 Me too!! and it's driving me nuts lol!!

Sky482 Faith no more , epic

So far away has the same kind of harmony

A very interesting direction with this song. They never cease to impress me

The drums are dope af!!

Why did it take 18 years to get an album cover without their logoo or a monster?

The EliHbk the design is still the deathbat

The EliHbk look a little closer at the shape of the lightening and the shape of the nebula🙂

give ya a hint: earth is the eye

ITS HIDDEN SWEETIE

The EliHbk look closer

I know it's about AI but I think about Cern and the god particle when I hear this song.

Imagine if Rev still was alive and did this album... R.I.P. he lives foREVer with us

Imagine if Rev still was alive and did this album... R.I.P. he lives foREVer with us

@Madara Uchiha nightmare album maybe wouldnt exsist,they called Portnoy to make that album in respect for the rev because the revs favorite drummer was Mike Portnoy

Hellhound Nigthmare album still exist because The Rev still alive while at recording Nightmare Demo

@Madara Uchiha well that changes a lot of things

@M Bayrak im late to the party but the rev was a very good drummer and just in his time when he was alive in 7 years he went from not knowing how to play to good enough that wackerman in a interview says it kills him everytime he has to play like the rev did he didnt need to have a super complex rythmn when he could be everywhere on the drum kit at once

Song never good like this

People actually thought this drummer sucked at first because of the simple beats in HttK, but damn they must feel stupid now.

The drummer in HttK was Arin Illejay. Arin left the band about a little over a year ago. Brooks Wackerman then came in to replace Arin. Brooks was the drummer for The Stage, not Arin.

John Michael Halbig I cringed at your statement. But I’ll let it pass since you didn’t know. And yes, Arin is a great drummer. Not Ready to Die and Carry On is a great example.

You must feel stupid now lol

John Michael Halbig I know who is the stupid one at this particular moment.

was bugging me but i finally figured out who the chorus reminds me of - Saliva Your Disease. almost the same chord progression

this song is spooky

i love this song, god damn, angels and paradigm along with the rest of the album

so good

the drummer's heavily influenced by Portnoy, but sounds even more controlled and responsive. awesome.

superevan07 I feel like Wackerman is inspired by Portnoy, and has almost the same style of play, but Wackerman wouldn’t last 2 seconds into Octavarium or A Change Of Seasons...

I've been a fan of Avenged Sevenfold for over 10 years ever since I was 8 and I'm to the point to where I can't even pick a favorite song I love them all equally does anyone else feel this way?

Save me. Now wasn't that easy?

probably everyone :)

Me too bro

dislike? yeah right 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

Dayummm!!! I DARE YOU to learn to drum pattern!!

This friggin drum track though

those drum breaks get me every time.

I wish they had a music video for this

agree and i hope they sing it live too

Firly they did.

*The Stage eats Hail To The King for breakfast*

Acid rain enough said

*City of Evil joins the chat*

@Steve Kaufmann sick ass burn

@Steve Kaufmann HttK was a more "radio friendly" album. Atleast what they said

the 8 people that gave this song a thumbs down needs a good ass kicking

into the pool

Maybe they love it so much they flipped the thumbs down upside down to like it again

59 now those assholes

See what you did there

I'm in love

Delicia cara!!

Guys get tickets for lunatic luau in Virginia beach before there no more tickets! I'm going... ITs going to be LIT!!!!

I love how terrible the posters english is. Just look at that description...

lain 4lyfe 😂😂😂

The 6 people that don't like this.. FUCK you

I fucking love this song!!

this song favors Alice in chains at some parts.

This album really is beyond anything I could have expected.
It was a neat coincidence I came across Answer by Friedrich Brown a week before listening to this song.

Here it is, if anyone wonders:

Dwan Ev ceremoniously soldered the final connection with gold. The eyes of a dozen television cameras watched him and the subether bore throughout the universe a dozen pictures of what he was doing.
He straightened and nodded to Dwar Reyn, then moved to a position beside the switch that would complete the contact when he threw it. The switch that would connect, all at once, all of the monster computing machines of all the populated planets in the universe -- ninety-six billion planets -- into the supercircuit that would connect them all into one supercalculator, one cybernetics machine that would combine all the knowledge of all the galaxies.
Dwar Reyn spoke briefly to the watching and listening trillions. Then after a moment's silence he said, "Now, Dwar Ev."
Dwar Ev threw the switch. There was a mighty hum, the surge of power from ninety-six billion planets. Lights flashed and quieted along the miles-long panel.
Dwar Ev stepped back and drew a deep breath. "The honor of asking the first question is yours, Dwar Reyn."
"Thank you," said Dwar Reyn. "It shall be a question which no single cybernetics machine has been able to answer."
He turned to face the machine. "Is there a God?"
The mighty voice answered without hesitation, without the clicking of a single relay.
"Yes, now there is a God."
Sudden fear flashed on the face of Dwar Ev. He leaped to grab the switch.
A bolt of lightning from the cloudless sky struck him down and fused the switch shut.

Inidentificado fuck

Inidentificado That needs to be fleshed out into something longer. That one section blew my damn mind.

it was a lot Higher than my expectations

Inidentificado What a coincidence..Thank you for posting that... Interesting..
