I could imagine the Red Cloak having strong, if not direct ties with Ruby Rose. This likely can count as part of Ruby Rose's earlier life.

After all, the song described a harsh reality that's unlike anything we've seen in the current RWBY so far. It seems fitting of a reality from the past where war was waging and the Grimm running more freely than it was now.
