​[Intro] You see the bars, but you don't see the key. It’s easier to point at me than look at the mirror, isn't it? ​[Verse 1] Step in the room and the oxygen thins I’m a ghost in the machine where the cycle begins You’re clocking my movements, you’re counting my wins But your hatred is just where your shadow begins I’m the glitch in your system, the truth in the lie You’re looking for wings but you’re scared of the sky Hating the vessel, ignoring the soul You’re burning the map while you’re losing control. Why the venom? Why the bitter design? We could be brothers, we could be fine But you’re tucked in a corner, you’re drawing a line Between your stagnation and everything mine. ​[Chorus] We could walk the same road, we could breathe the same air If you stepped out the darkness and opted to care But you’re hating the vision, you’re hating the light ‘Cause I’m living in color while you’re stuck in the white Yeah, you’re hating me... But you’re really just hating the free. ​[Verse 2] You’re trapped in a cage of your own mental making I’m out in the open, the foundations shaking You’re rotting away in a box with a view Of a life that you wanted but never pursued Close-minded, blinded, reminded of what? That I found the "Me" while you stayed in the rut? You call me the villain, you call me the fake But I’m the only one here who is actually awake You’re hidden in silence, you’re masked in the hate While I’m breaking the hinges and storming the gate! ​[Bridge] SCREAM through the glass! Let the bitterness PASS! You’re DYING INSIDE WHILE I’M BUILT TO LAST! It’s a CHOICE! It’s a CAGE! It’s a slow-burning RAGE! (RAGE!) Turn the LOCK! Turn the KEY! STOP... HATING... ME! ​[Chorus] We could be friends in a different life Without the ego, without the knife But you’re in the cage, and I’m in the sun And until you step out...it looks like we're the only one. (🍘) I found me. You’re still looking. Let's hope you don't spill anymore...Venom.
