    Story Behind the Song
    This song is about Drizzt finding out that his mother had sacrificed his father Zaknafein to Lloth, and his reaction to the news. This features vocal interplay between Kevyn and Sable.

    Lyrics
    Drizzt:

    Father I wish I could have known
    I wish I had been there
    A true knight forced to be a pawn
    In Malice's wicked game

    For the rest of my centuries
    I will honor your sacrifice
    I'll escape the hell of Menzoberranzan
    And Lloth's adamantite vice

    Malice:
    You dare to defy my will
    After I stand to offer so much
    I would've given you honors so high
    As Weapons Master of our House

    So many died so you could live
    Does that mean anything to you?
    Are you a true drow warrior
    Or just an insolent spoiled little child

    Drizzt:
    How dare you defile my father's memory so?
    I despise Lloth's ways more than you could ever know!

    Damned be the Spider Queen
    And damned be her lies
    In the name of Zaknafien
    And his great sacrifice

    I'll wash my hands
    Of the ways of my kin
    I'll live by my principles
    I'll follow the light within

    Malice:
    Damn your blaspheming tongue
    You dare invoke Lloth's rage?
    You're but a puny little male
    Who's heart should've met the blade

    Briza, ready your whip
    Let's teach this boy his place
    Rake his back with viper's fangs
    For his words against our race

    For you and your father's crimes against House Do'Urden
    By the grace of the Spider Queen, you will die for your sins

    Glory to the Spider Queen
    Let us praise Lloth's might
    House Do'Urden shall be victorious
    Before Narbondel's light

    Hail the name of the Spider Queen
    Let us bask in her dark light
    Drizzt Do'Urden, your time has come
    This is now your reckoning night

    (SOLO)

    Drizzt:
    Masoj Hu'Nett is now dead by my hand
    I'll not slay another drow while I still walk this land
    There must be another dark elf who holds my beliefs
    For if their blood were to stain my blades, forever I'd grieve

    Damned be the Spider Queen
    And damned be her lies
    I'll depart this hell
    With Guenhwyvar by my side

    I take leave of House Do'Urden
    And these misery-laden halls
    If there be a true god
    A true god damn you all

    A true god damn you all
    A true god damn you all
    A true god damn you all
    ...GOD DAMN YOU ALL!!!!!!!!
