Flatbush Zombies The Unforgiven

Metallica is one of the most legendary metal bands of all time and their Black Album from 1991 is one of their most classic albums thanks to the fact that it brought their sound to the mainstream. To celebrate the 30th anniversary of this project, the band has come out with a special album full of covers from a diverse range of artists. In fact, plenty of hip-hop acts can be found on this new album, including Flatbush Zombies who were joined by DJ Scratch for a unique rendition of “The Unforgiven” which is one of the biggest hits on the album.

With this new version of the song, we get a sample of the acoustic guitar line all while James Hetfield’s original chorus is played throughout the song. From there, we get some inspired verses from Erick The Architect, Zombie Juice, and Meechy Darko. The group’s vocal stylings fit perfectly over the song all while DJ Scratch’s production helps keep the song’s original vibe alive.

Lyrics

[Chorus: James Hetfield]
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

[Verse 1: Erick The Architect]
Architect can build it, you can see it
Aye, Aye
A paranoid mind is a crutch, like anything sitting for a while gon’ rust
That’s why I stand out and while you climb the ladder people got they hands out
Something you don’t know about
The hustle got harder had to move up out thе house
I was 16 hiding condoms in my couch
But this seed gon’ sprout, the elitе don’t doubt
And life ain’t fair that’s why I’m speaking for you now
My reflection is a martyr’s own
And god knows I be verbose, that’s why my words always feel close
I been protected, they want my essence but I’m aggressive, they won’t catch me, I euro stepped it, it’s destined
Take a look at my expressions, I’m all festive and invested in my message
Unforgiven man they still don’t see the vision
If we all pump fakin’ who gon really make decisions boy

[Chorus: James Hetfield]
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

[Verse 2: Meechy Darko]
I was a hellion, feeding off rebellion
When you hate the teacher, you miss all of your lesson
Been lost for a while now, I’m just good at fakin’
The names and the face it keep changin’ but the strategy still remain the same in the end
Gold fangs in their neck, sweet taste of revenge
You cannot kill what’s already dead
Straight up, hell bent, opposite of heaven sent, until my soul lift
And I’m just a skelton, day of reckonin’, will I get my recognition in the end ?
Unforgivable, like cheating on your wife on your wedding night
When I’m consumed by the darkness, I’m truly in my prime
The walls are closing in on us, the foundations givin’ out
Bu I never felt more alive than I do now

[Chorus: James Hetfield]
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

[Verse 3: Zombie Juice]
I’m tryin’ to stop thinkin’ about the bad
But will we ever stop thinkin’ about our past
Regrets, grudges, everything that ain’t last
Feel like I’m under water trying to throw punches but I’m hittin’ glass
Nobody told me life would be so, up and down steep slope
Feel the incline, big smoke
When I didn’t have a single dollar to my name, I still had hope, I still had faith
Still your number one fan, keep your picture in my wallet
So young, so happy, so pure, no malice
They say life full circle, kinda feelin’ off balance
But I know a new day, bring a whole new challenge
A new chapter it was written like the stories of old
Unforgiven but I bask in this glory I own (I own)

[Outro: James Hetfield]
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
