[Intro – spoken low, over soft soul sample fade-in] Yeah... Queens bridge to the web... still swingin', still bleedin'. With great power... comes a debt that never gets paid off. [Verse 1 – rap flow: fast, intricate multis, internals stacking] Bitten by fate in that lab, radioactive twist in my veins, Now every day’s a cage match with my brain, chains I can’t break, Great power? More like great anchor draggin' me under waves, Uncle Ben's voice echoes louder than any villain's rage— "Responsibility," he said, then bled out on the pavement, I let the thief walk, thought it wasn't my engagement, Now guilt's my permanent tenant, rent paid in sleepless nights, Web-sling through the city, but the city's got me in its sights. Aunt May's coughin' in the kitchen while I'm dodgin' Green Goblin gliders, MJ's askin' where I vanish, can't tell her I'm a fighter, Bills stack higher than Oscorp towers, photography's a cover, But the shutter clicks on bodies I couldn't hover over. Friends turn to ghosts or enemies with agendas, Harry's hate festers, Doc Ock's arms twist agendas, I save the day, they cheer, then forget by the next crisis, Mask hides the bruises, but the bruises hide inside us. [Chorus/Hook – soulful, layered, choir vibe] With great power comes the pain I bear alone, Every swing a prayer that I don't turn to stone, Responsibility's a blade that cuts to the bone, Save the world, lose my own—still I can't let go. [Verse 2 – double-time feel, even denser internals/multis] Venom symbiote tried to merge, make the anger permanent, I ripped it off my skin, but the rage stayed, inherent, Carnage in the streets, blood on my hands indirect, Every punch I throw echoes Ben's last regret. Daily Bugle calls me menace, Jameson spits venom daily, While I'm patchin' up the city that hates me, Civilian life's a tightrope, one slip and May's in danger, Girlfriend's leavin' messages, voice full of anger. Power lets me climb walls, but can't climb out depression, Web fluid runs dry like my patience in succession, Villains monologuin' 'bout their twisted obsessions, I counter with action, no time for confessions. Gwen's fall replays in HD every time I close my lids, Shoulda caught her, shoulda been quicker with the webs I bid, Responsibility ain't a slogan, it's a sentence, Life without parole, no appeals, no repentance. [Chorus/Hook] With great power comes the pain I bear alone, Every swing a prayer that I don't turn to stone, Responsibility's a blade that cuts to the bone, Save the world, lose my own—still I can't let go. [Bridge – slower, piano heavy, almost spoken-word intensity] They see the suit, the flips, the one-liners in the fray, Don't see the kid who prays he makes it home today. Peter Parker versus Spider-Man, civil war inside my skull, One wants normalcy, the other knows the pull— To stop means bodies drop, means more graves to dig, To keep goin' means more pieces of me I can't fix. Ben died 'cause I chose selfish over selfless once, Now every choice is punishment, every win a dunce. I swing through the boroughs, wind whippin' past my ears, Chasin' redemption that disappears year after year. [Verse 3 – explosive close, fastest flow, multis everywhere] Kingpin pullin' strings, symbiotes multiplyin', Morlun huntin' totems, universe's supplyin' More pain, more strain, more chains on my frame, But I frame the city in webs, refuse to go lame. No cape, no mansion, just a backpack and some rent due, Science nerd turned street surgeon, cuttin' through the venue, Of chaos, of loss, of the cost I accrue, Great power ain't a gift—it's a debt overdue. So I'll keep crawlin' walls till my fingers bleed raw, Keep the mask on till the man underneath withdraws, 'Cause if I quit, who stops the next thief, the next bomb? Responsibility's my prison... but it's also my psalm. [Outro – fading soul sample, strings swell then drop] With great power... Yeah. Still here. Still fightin'. Queens forever.
