This music video is hard for people to understand. It shows a boy going into a room and spending all his life in it. People don't understand that this music video is a metaphor for the soul in the body.

The lyrics to this song are about mind control and oppression and many people have correctly interpreted it that way but it goes deeper than that. This music video is saying that mind control and oppression has a lot to do with not having knowledge of the spirit or the true self.

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 strugggles on and on he's known
A vow unto his own
That never from this day
His will they'll take away
Chorus

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've felt
What i've known
Never shined through in what i've shown
Never free
Never me
So i dub thee UNFORGIVEN

They dedicate their lives
To running all of his
He tries to please then 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
That old man here is me
Chorus


You labeled me
I'll label you
So i dub thee UNFORGIVEN

  • @ninetecks dude, James is a poetic artist, he knows what he wrote about.. that what makes Metallica songs really good piece of art.. he's not like some retarded punk/emo bands who only know about hedonism and partying..

  • This song speaks about ghost that is Jesus,Amen,James,Devil and someone called Eden at same time the soul that can be at more places at same time (Osiris)separated soul)and its fighting for people on this earth its fighting Zeus(world) like God of war and Zeus represents this world this ghost is fighting him self to preserve peace and to return to his throne but he has two choices to stay trapped in this world to save people(that he created)in this world or to escape this world to be One

  • 2.18 start song

  • @dontlosehope1 IT IS TRUE, THIS VIDEO OF UNFORGIVEN DOES NOT EXIST ON ANYWHERE ON YOUTUBE. VERY STREANGE

  • @Soulshroude Bilderberg and FreeMasonry ?..:-)..Maybe, this "analyse" speaks about it...

  • I wouldn't agree to this, the main motive ve is the funeral and life which is passing through. The boy is obvioiusly blind trapped in in cell of life.

  • This video is far reaching. Conspiracy theories.. blah...

  • Adrenaline starts to flow

    You're thrashing all around

    Acting like a maniac

  • I like what u wrote,but its doesnt go as far as u put it,whem metallica created this video they didnt knew or care about half the thing u wrote.The meaning of iluminaty or God may be rong, but elites is right.The fact is that light means freedom,and the Yes/writings on the wall are a mark of what he learned in life and left behing to warn pp that may come into the "room", on the end he takes the square(the most simple way to get out,not a simbol)and goes to freedom=light,most of the rest i agree

  • i cant find the music video for the unforgiven anywhere on youtube. why is that?

  • ne cins insanlar var bu dunyada

  • @MrAlextw Hell yeah brother, me too.
