Chapter 1 - The Good Faith
I live in hell Drowning in the night
I slam the hammer on the steel of the black knights
They will never let me stop, I cannot put up a fight
Thank you to my father this is how I must live and die
And my son and wife starve every day and night
How I wish that I could just send them to the sky
Fucking black knights only wanna take life
Or so I thought til that one day they showed light
Til now I thought they didn't care if I was dead
Gold pouch heavy as my goddamn head
He played for a second then he threw in my chest
"get your son a side dish he could have with that bread"
I cried
Harder than the day my father died
Harder than the time when knights took me outside
Made me sit down face my father with his neck tied
Black hearted Knight kicked chair made my dad fly
Or so it looked that way where I was sitting
Until the very moment when his feet stopped kicking
I couldn't hear a sound just my heart strings splitting
Every day after that it turned to me hitting
On the steel
Black hearted Knight paying for meal
If only I knew it was all the devil's deal
I would've given back that pouch he gave me
But I swear that I can see my sons ribs can you blame me?
My wife losses hope in me im sad
But I heard of a festival in Novigrad
I didn't tell her of the pouch of gold that I had
I just wanted to show my son that he can love his dad
Oh they hate me
How they hate me
They know that I am the reason they can never leave
This is velen where the bodies hang dead as the leaves
And the trees stand creaking loudly in the breeze
"oh fuck oh fuck oh fuck don't look"
What I said as we traveled on foot
And we made it just outside of no man's land
To a cliff with a beach clean water and the sand
Oh god, the beauty nearly did my heart in
We could see ships sailing the horizon
My son will not be bound
Tears pour from all our eyes
As we watch as a Griffin takes flight in the skies
And at that moment I felt so odd
Euphoria act as my one and only god
My son will not be bound
It was then that I heard that sound
I slam the hammer on the steel of the black knights
They will never let me stop, I cannot put up a fight
Thank you to my father this is how I must live and die
And my son and wife starve every day and night
How I wish that I could just send them to the sky
