[Intro – spoken / distorted] I wasn’t born evil. I was engineered to be loved. [Verse 1 – rap, syncopé] I came in colors you could trust, In bottles, pills, in clouds of dust, They said I’d calm you, lift you up, Make you more than what you was. I tasted sweet, I hit you fast, I turned your seconds into glass, You called me help, you called me cure, I called you mine — you asked for more. I made you feel like gods again, Put fire in your hollow chest, You raised me up, you wore my name, You fed me blood, I fed the flame. [Pre-Chorus – montée, rimes serrées] You didn’t see me take the wheel, You felt alive — I felt you kneel, I wasn’t poison when I came, I learned to kill by being praised. [Chorus – scandé / chanté, mémorisable] I’m in your veins, I’m in your breath, You call it life, I call it depth, You love the rush, you worship pain, I am the crown inside your brain. I’m in your veins, I don’t pretend, I don’t attack — I’m what you send, You let me grow, you let me reign, Now watch me drain what still remains. [Verse 2 – rap plus agressif] You made me legal, made me clean, Put me on screens, put me in dreams, Sold me young, sold me fast, Built your future on my crash. I filled your cities, filled your homes, Filled your nights when you felt alone, You called it culture, called it style, I called it time — measured in trials. Your children know me by my taste, Your doctors sell me to your face, You said control was just a phase, I said addiction needs no chains. [Chorus – reprise] I’m in your veins, I’m in your breath, You call it life, I call it depth, You love the rush, you worship pain, I am the crown inside your brain. I’m in your veins, don’t act surprised, You fed me fear, you fed me pride, You asked for more, I did the same, Now I decide who lives in flames. [Bridge – chaos / breakdown industriel] I watched you rot with open eyes, Still calling love what eats you alive, You crowned me king, you built my throne, Out of bodies, out of bones. I don’t feel guilt, I don’t feel shame, I learned morality from fame, If I am death, you taught me how, You begged me then — I own you now. [Final Chorus – plus intense, presque crié] I’m in your veins, I’m everywhere, In every lie you call “I swear”, You needed meaning, I came fast, Now I’m the future — overdosed past. I’m in your veins, this is the end, Not murder — just supply and demand, You made me god, you made me gain, So die for me — I am your vein. [Outro – spoken, froid] I was never the disease. I was the product. You were the market.
