New blood joins this Earth, and quickly he's subdued
Through constant pained disgrace, the young boy learns their rules
With time the child draws in, this whipping boy done wrong
Deprived of all his thoughts, the young man struggles on and on, he's known (Ooh)
A vow unto his own that never from this day
His will they'll take away, ayy
What I've felt, what I've known
Never shined through what I've shown
Never be, never see
Won't see what might have been
What I've felt, what I've known
Never shined through in what I've shown
Never free, never me
So I dub the unforgiven
They dedicate their lives to running all of his
He tries to please them all, this bitter man he is
Throughout his life the same, he's battled constantly
This fight he cannot win, a tired man they see no longer cares
The old man then prepares to die regretfully (The old man then prepares)
That old man here is me, yeah (That old man here is me)
What I felt and knew
I hid it and didn't show it
I didn't dare, I never went
I was never who I could be
What I felt and knew
I hid it and didn't show it
I look at myself today, and what I am
Is unforgivable
That old man here is me (That old man here is me)
What I've felt
What I've felt, what I've known
Never shined through in what I've shown
Never be, never see
Won't see what might have been
What I felt and knew
I hid it and didn't show it
I look at myself today, and what I am
Is unforgivable
Never free, never me
So I dub the unforgiven
