"Back" (Sephiroth expresses his redemption.)

'My quest full of sorrow and rage,
I was the last, like the chocobo sage.
My mother lost, my father dead,
Jenova's cells controlling my head.'

'My body floated the lifestream, my power gone,
To be a God, no power could defeat mine, none.
The living Jenova inside of me, power it'd horde,
The only way to win, was to kill by the sword.'

'My powers, an experiment, nothing more,
After finding Mother, my body was sore.
Too weak to fight back she assumed control, mindless,
When I saw her fall, I gave the sacrifice, selfless.'

'The power I gained then from her corpse, to intimidate,
My ultimate power, my ultimate dream, exterminate.
The blonde puppet of mine, broke my control, he was no fool,
Defeated me and struck me down, into the soul stream, the pool.'

'Father and son, joined in Hell,
Mother and son, separated at life.
Like one another, father and son fell,
The mother's son, taken by Strife.'

'Legend, my life was the greatest price.
Truth, I stumbled and fell, my sacrifice.
Back, to return to normal life.
Rage, no longer directed at Strife.
Back.'

[Ultimate sacrifice pays its rewards to all creation.
My untimely death and rebirth, my silver redemption.
I'm back.]
