The protagonist in these lyrics is rejecting the idea of bowing down to someone or something higher than herself. She doesn't believe that she can stay and watch others disrespect her or her partner. She is standing up for herself and refuses to serve anyone or anything above herself. Deep down, she doesn't believe in what others might see as holy or powerful. She is determined to stay true to herself and won't let anyone bring her down. In the end, she recognizes that there is nothing above her own beliefs and values.
