Songfacts®:

  • This hip-hop influenced album closer is one of several tracks on Everything is New, where religion plays a part. However Peñate is not religious himself, as he explained to The Guardian June 13, 2009: "Well, it would be nice to have something to believe in. And I keep finding myself in churches. But Christianity doesn't appeal to me and neither do the others. My girlfriend and I are sort of neo-hippies; I would find it hard to have no spirituality but there's not many options."
