WHAT I BECAME

🩸 LYRICS

Intro (low, distant):

I didn’t survive this world

I adapted

⸻

Verse 1:

I swallowed the venom

Just to prove I could breathe

Every scar you see

Was a lesson taught in teeth

I watched my name decay

In the mouths of the weak

Now I speak in violence

Because silence let me bleed

⸻

Pre-Chorus (cut → tension):

I tried to stay human

But it never saved me

⸻

Chorus (POWERFUL, DARK, ANTHEMIC):

This is what I became

When mercy failed

I wore the weight of the world

Until it cracked my spine

If this path is condemned

Then let it be

I didn’t lose my soul

I sharpened it

⸻

Verse 2 (faster, more hostile):

They fed me fear like scripture

Called obedience “peace”

I learned survival isn’t given

It’s something you fucking take

Now every breath I draw

Is a warning shot

I’m not what you created

I’m what you forgot

⸻

Chorus (repeat — bigger, layered):

This is what I became

When mercy failed

I wore the weight of the world

Until it cracked my spine

⸻

Feel it

Closer

Heartbeat

Under my skin

Pressure

Rising

Hold it

Hold it

⸻

BREAKDOWN (INSTRUMENTAL ONLY):

(Fast, relentless chugging, Tight palm-muted guitars, Double-kicks locked to rhythm, No melody, No space, Pure momentum)

(Violent, forward-driving pit energy)

⸻

Final Chorus (last stand):

You call me a monster

But monsters are made

⸻

Outro (dragged, crushing):

I am the proof

That pain evolves
