I am not a professional musician, I am a broken human being.

God exists on a completely different plane than we do, his cause is himself as to be God, you need to be perfect and rely only on yourself.

God exists on a completely different plane than we do

Special pleading. God seemingly only exists in human heads, he's imaginary.

his cause is himself as to be God, you need to be perfect

"Perfect" is human bullshit. Would you like to define "perfect" as you're using it here? Have we ever observed anything perfect?

and rely only on yourself.

Like the universe itself seems to do, no god required.

You keep repeating the same fallacies: god of the gaps and special pleading. Philosophy is not evidence. Philosophy is "if what I'm saying is true, then what I'm saying is true." But there is no evidence verifying the premise or the conclusion. Anyone can make shit up, it's not impressive.

You claim god exists with no evidence, specifically citing the unproven idea that everything must have a cause. Oops, right, everything except god, because he's special. What's stopping me from claiming god was created by Jod? Why don't you believe every unproven claim ever made? Do you believe in unicorns? Leprechauns? Fairies? If not, why not?
