[Verse 1]

In a world where the love isn't free

Through the lies and the pain and deceit

See, glitter ain't always gold

They want war, but we came for the peace

Misfits in the belly of the beast

Get ready for the rally in the streets

"Don't aim too high," they tell you

But above clouds, we reach

I'm numb to the words they preach

We listen to the inner voice leadin'

Listen to the words I'm speakin'

Always for the people till the day I stop breathin'

Can't take back all the time we spent tryna make deep change in the world

How do you get them to understand when you're right when your pain isn't felt?

It's a triumph

The bass ain't too loud for the room

We can never be silenced, venom


[Chorus]

Venom


[Verse 2]

My, my, if you've ever heard what I've heard in the night

What a fright, they wanna see us abandon the fight

We never die, we just multiply

Take all the rage you've been feelin' inside

You couldn't handle this heat if you tried

City-to-city, it's different from me, you and I have similar lives

I've got a plan, is you comin' with me?

There's minutes to go, I ain't watchin' the time

Lovebirds are ringin', I'm ready to roll

Ain't no time to chill when my seat don't recline

Ain't no apologies, I'm takin' off and ain't nobody stoppin' me

You're gonna do something or you're just watchin' me?

Only I know what the fate of my prophecy is

Yeah, I know where I'm headin'

Voice is a weapon, watch as I tell 'em


[Chorus]

Venom

Venom

Venom

Venom (Venom)


[Verse 3]

Nighttime to daylight, we roll trees

Saved lives, invade minds and go deep

Oh, he wouldn't have guessed I'm so chill

Part of the day in the life you won't see

Part of the day in the life you can't be here for

It's the day in the life of OGs

Dealin' with inner demons that won't leave

Not a word, you will listen when my soul speaks

Down I go, so follow me, follow me, follow me

Actually, don't follow me, nobody bother me

I'm a mess, honestly, fuck all of your policies

They wanna kick me down and demolish me

Use me and fuckin' abolish me, I don't wanna hear no apologies

Or am I in my own head?

Can't tell anymore, psychotic to the death

When I dig deep, I can never find nothin' left

It's a mystery, rage, nothin' but rage

Can't figure out if I'm goin' insane

Ain't no doubt, we'll be showin' no mercy

So think twice if you wanna get blazed

Nothin' ain't nice 'round here, no games

I don't wanna dark nobody in a flash

True, it's a stick-up, hands in the air

Put the money in the bag, all cash, all cash


[Chorus]

Venom

Venom

Venom

Venom (Venom)


[Outro]
