Vigilante
These lyrics are very dark and sad describing how a young boy was constantly raped by immediate and other family members. The pain both physical and mental are seared in his brain.
He studies how to use chemicals like the Russians with no trace found and sets out to be the savior for those who continue to abuse children. He leaves his calling card, and a deep V is placed on the forehead of the perpetrator. Justice.

When darkness fell upon my door
Betrayal came from those I’d known
Through shattered trust, I bore the pain
But deep within, a fire grown
Chorus
Justice is delayed; it is time to rise
Their deeds will face the light
I stand, the vigilante strong
For every child’s silent song
In shadows cast by Russian lore
I found the tools to settle scores
With studied hand and measured dose
Their reckoning, no one can oppose
Bridge
No more will they haunt the night
No more will their deeds take flight
With every strike, a V is found
A symbol of the justice I’ve crowned
Outro
In the end, my heart finds peace
As the darkness fades, and the pain does cease
For though I’ve fought, and though I’ve bled
Justice reigns, the lights ahead
