**[INTRO — Low, dark whisper]** They took my memories… They took my home… They took the life I knew… But they couldn't take **me.** Peter Parker… Spider-Man… **I AM BOTH.** **[VERSE 1 — Dark, energetic]** Just a kid from Queens with a room too small, A spider bite changed everything I called normal. Tony saw something I couldn't see, Put me in the sky, said, “Be more than me.” I wanted the suit, wanted everyone to know, Thought being a hero meant putting on a show. Then the wings came down, and the lesson hit hard— You don't become a hero just because you wear the mask. **[PRE-CHORUS]** I made mistakes, I paid the price, Lost what I loved To save a life. Every fall, every scar, Every night beneath the stars— **I became who I am.** **[CHORUS — Aggressive / explosive]** **I AM BOTH!** The boy and the beast, The heart underneath And the hero released! **I AM BOTH!** The fear and the fight, Peter in the daylight, Spider in the night! You can't make me choose, You can't cut me in two— Everything I lost Made me something new! **I AM BOTH!** **[VERSE 2 — Harder, rhythmic]** I watched a mentor turn into a memory, Held onto his words when there was nothing left of me. I thought I had to carry everything alone, Till I learned a hero isn't defined by a throne. Then one cold moment changed my world, A promise broken, a scream unheard. I held him close, but I couldn't save him— That's the night the kid inside me changed. I wanted revenge, I wanted the pain, Wanted someone else To feel what I became. But I stopped. Because Peter Parker Doesn't become the villain Just because he's hurting. **[PRE-CHORUS — Rising]** I could've crossed that line, I could've let anger win, But somewhere underneath the mask The better me still lived. **[CHORUS — Bigger]** **I AM BOTH!** The boy and the beast, The heart underneath And the hero released! **I AM BOTH!** The fear and the fight, Peter in the daylight, Spider in the night! You can't make me choose, You can't cut me in two— Everything I lost Made me something new! **I AM BOTH!** **[BRIDGE — Cinematic / beat drops]** Three worlds crashed into one, Three faces looked back at me. I saw what I could become… And what I never wanted to be. I saw rage. I saw pain. I saw power without restraint. Then I chose— **Not revenge.** I chose to save them. Even if saving them Meant losing everyone. **[BREAKDOWN — Heavy drums]** No home. No memories. No one calling my name. Still— I put the mask on. **[FINAL CHORUS — Massive]** **I AM BOTH!** The past and the new, The kid who still loves And the hero who pulls through! **I AM BOTH!** The loss and the light, Peter Parker— **Spider-Man tonight!** You erased my name, But you couldn't erase my soul. You took everything I had— **AND I STILL CHOSE TO SAVE THEM ALL!** **I AM BOTH!** **[OUTRO — Soft, echoing]** Peter Parker… Spider-Man… Not one. Not the other. **Both.**
