Creating God is the fifth of eleven songs on Avenged Sevenfold's 2016 album, The Stage.  

Lyrics[]

Standing in the shade of altruism, answering the call

Came a modern messiah to save us all

Something far beyond the work of fiction, positronic brain

A world that's void of all the anguish and suffering, pain

Better tame your convictions before you go and open the cage

We're Creating God, master of our designs

We're creating God, unsure of what we'll find

Never held a high regard for Darwin, selection takes too long

A little kick in the pool shouldn't do us wrong

Devouring the very last invention man would ever need

But exponential growth is a frightening thing, indeed

Sweet bohemian jury rounded up and hung in the streets

We're Creating God, master of our designs

We're Creating God, unsure of what we'll find

Sometimes when I look up to the sky, I have to wonder are we "summoning the demon" you and I?  

Have you notice that I'm needin' it more now, more than it needs me

Got a couple of billion that seems to agree

Surfing in an artificial dimension, but we're not alone

Now the master has become just a stepping stone, oh

Like a blow to the ego, the bitter pills are harder to take

We're Creating God, master of our design

We're Creating God, unsure of what we'll find

We're Creating God, in search of the divine

We're Creating God, committing suicide
