My other thoughts on this song:

It could either be about his father and how Zakk imagined how he felt in the war, being around darkness all of the time.

Or, one could also assume this is written for the slave days in America when they were treated poorly and never felt like human beings.

Anyway, the solo near the end of the song is my favourite. Infact, this song is my second favourite by him. Anyway. heh.
