So at school, when it was time for Science he left the classroom because he was told by his parents that science was not as important as God's powers. He was raised in a highly-christian family. At school he was an outcast because he was "different" from the rest of his classmates. His mom passed away when James was sixteen after a losing battle with cancer. She made a living painting stuff, but besides that, she wasn't able to properly take care of James and her daughter. James got really mad at his father for leaving them behind, given that he was the breadwinner of the family and that his mom wasn't as effective at being a single parent. His dad left the family when he was thirteen for no apparent reason - only a mare note was left behind explaining his departure. The song explores James' tumultuous childhood. "The Unforgiven" is James Hetfield's most personal track of all Metallica songs.
