The pattern is also very similar to that of "[[My Violent Heart]]". These beats are [[samples|sampled]] from ''Atom Heart's Rather Interesting World Of Digital Drums'' sample library by Atomizer™. ===God Given (Instrumental)==='''''Running Time: 3:56''''' This unmastered vocal-less mix was released by [[Trent Reznor]] through his remix.nin.com account. ===God Given: Stephen Morris & Gillian Gilbert==='''''Running Time: 4:27''''' This remix appears on ''Y34RZ3R0R3M1X3D.''

Coming soon Hey man Please don't make a sound Take a look around Can't you see what's right in front of you? Aah Have a little taste No more time to waste You don't wanna get left behind, because it's all coming down right now Now—how Hard is it to see? Put your faith in me I sure wouldn't want to be Praying to the wrong piece of wood You should Get where you belong Everything you know is wrong Come on, sing along everybody now (God Given) And He gives us sight And we see the light And it burns so bright Now we know we're right When His kingdom come And Thy will be done We have just begun We're the chosen ones I would never tell you anything that wasn't absolutely true that hadn't come right from His mouth and He wants me to tell you Wait Step into the light How can this be right? I'm afraid we're going to ask you to leave Guess you can not win With the color of your skin You won't be getting in to the Promised Land Besides This is just another case You people still don't know your place Step aside, out the way, wipe that look off your face We are the divine Separated from the swine Come on, sing along everybody now (God Given) And He gives us sight And we see the light And it burns so bright Now we know we're right When His kingdom come And Thy will be done We have just begun We're the chosen ones And He gives us sight And we see the light And it burns so bright Now we know we're right When His kingdom come And Thy will be done And the Father and the Holy Son We're the chosen ones I would never tell you anything that wasn't absolutely true that hadn't come right from His mouth and He wants me to tell you ==External Links==*[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u_d4J-qQoeE "God Given" Official Video Concept Treatment]*[https://archive.org/details/remix-nin-com-audio-00083 "God Given" (Instrumental) at archive.org] <BR>{{succession box | title=[[Year Zero#Track Listing|Year Zero]] | before= [[The Warning (Year Zero song)|The Warning]]| after= [[Meet Your Master]] | track= 10}}
