[Intro] Low lights, clenched jaw, heartbeat loud I taste the truth when I spit it out [Verse 1] You shake my hand with a loaded smile Say my name like you mean it now But I’ve seen the knives you keep behind Polished lies in a friendly mouth Every promise drips in red Every word you said’s a thread Pull it once, it all unravels Now I see the game you play [Pre-Chorus] You fed me fear, you fed me doubt But I learned what pain’s about I don’t numb it, I don’t bend I turn it into ammunition [Chorus] This is venom in my veins I don’t bleed, I bite back harder Say my name, feel the change I’m the curse you tried to water You can run, you can pray But I’m done being your martyr This is venom — pure and loud And I’m done holding it out [Verse 2] You build your throne on broken trust Call it love, call it fate But crowns collapse when weight gets real And I won’t die to keep you safe I swallowed fire, learned to breathe Through the smoke you left in me Now every scar is speaking truth And it’s screaming back at you [Pre-Chorus] You fed me fear, you fed me doubt But I learned what pain’s about I don’t numb it, I don’t bend I turn it into ammunition [Chorus] This is venom in my veins I don’t bleed, I bite back harder Say my name, feel the change I’m the curse you tried to water You can run, you can pray But I’m done being your martyr This is venom — pure and loud And I’m done holding it out [Bridge] [Near silence – all instruments drop out] Just breath… one voice… tension builds I was quiet, I was kind I was easy to rewrite Not anymore — not tonight [Breakdown] [Full band hits] You pushed me down I learned to strike Teeth bared No alibi [Final Chorus] This is venom in my veins Every truth hits like a hammer I won’t kneel, I won’t fade I’m the storm you couldn’t manage You can hate, you can blame But your power’s just a phantom This is venom — hear the sound Hybrid Hate, underground [Outro] Still standing. Still breathing. Still venom.
