    *"Human beings in a mob. What's a mob to a King? What's a King to a God? What's a God to a non-believer, who don't believe in anything?"* Ok but Frank is legendary for this verse.

    i like the song because it is about contemporary times. the title says it all itself 'No church in the wild' there is no church in the war, there are no religions. everyone is on the same level they show that with the lyrics "Human beings in a mob, what's a mob to a king? What's a king to a god?'' they reflect on the nature of power and faith.they make listeners think about these profound themes and consider their own position towards religion, power and societal norms.

    Sheriff Brady just came over the news an announced that a man had stabbed his mother to death over this song. You don't have to believe in churches you don't have to believe the hate. That's your choice and the man that stabbed his mother to death open a door that should have never been opened. When you can't find happiness get out and seek it listen to music that is empowering. And music that lifts you up doesn't bring you in to the depths of depression in hell
