Lyric discussion by johnnyblueye 

Frank Oceans chorus is about perspective, power is an illusion humans create. God is an illusion humans create to keep humanity in check. "Love Is Cursed by Monogamy" Like we could give so much love to all our neighbors but society tells us to give it to one. Religion tells us to give all our respect to One, so humanity doesn't respect each others opinions, the pious cling blindly to faith. Socrates and Plato were great thinkers, all western philosophy is but a footnote of Plato, yet they were pagans. They understood the gods as more of a story, a lesson to be learned and remembered, but not to live by.
