I got this venom in me
Power has taken hold and now I'm a new breed
I can make a difference be the change that we need
The pride of my city and the strength of the streets
I got this venom in me
Black and white converged it start to change how I see
This voice is getting louder telling me what I'll be
Eliminate all threats because survival is key

I look around and what I see is a world so close to broken
Something stirs inside of me got me feeling real heroic
I can do something about it what I think and what I'm hoping
But the only thing I manage is to observe and then report it
And I'm good at what I do piercing with my point of view
Helping stabilize the life foundation speaking what is true
There's a question that I hear so often what is wrong with you
Your whole life failed to meet your goals but yet you're still in hot pursuit
I ran into something alien now I'm sick like I'm a patient
Feeling the pain and hearing this voice both my heart and mind are breaking
Losing my hold I'm out of control it is as if I have been taken
Now I react to every threat never again will I be aching

I know that you are scared if there is evil I can stop it
Yes I'm talking weird but I feel this my only option
My hearts the same
This pain has brought a change
I hate the way that you found out
But now

I got this venom in me
Power has taken hold and now I'm a new breed
I can make a difference be the change that we need
The pride of my city and the strength of the streets
I got this venom in me
Black and white converged it start to change how I see
This voice is getting louder telling me what I'll be
Eliminate all threats because survival is key

One by one I'm crushing all my problems like I've been enhanced
Always wanted make things happen and I'm in my second chance
I can use this as the key to becoming a stronger me
But After crossing all these lines I'm thinking I'm no longer free
We can do whatever we want that's the deal
I'm in conflict with myself my minds an active battlefield
It comes attached to consequences but this power is not all bad
It's giving me the opportunity I thought I'd never have
Humblest beast with much to prove but no one would ever know it
Used to keep it all concealed but now I'm not afraid to show it
A raging hunger growling deep inside
I thought I could just control it
Now this fiend is of the leash
And it's taking over slowly

I know that you are scared if there is evil I can stop it
Yes I'm talking weird but I feel this my only option
My hearts the same
This pain has brought a change
I hate the way that things turned out
But now

I got this venom in me
Power has taken hold and now I'm a new breed
I can make a difference be the change that we need
The pride of my city and the strength of the streets
I got this venom in me
Black and white converged it start to change how I see




This voice is getting louder telling me what I'll be
Eliminate all threats because survival is key

With this newfound strength, they believe they can make a significant impact and become the catalyst for change that their community needs.
