While my words become hated
My thoughts will become meaningless
This venom has become part of me
It lurks inside, feeding on my love
Leaving me with hatred and lust,
This venom runs deep
Beyond the scars,
Beyond the flesh
The venom becomes who I am, and who I was
Forever I will be changed.

Enabled in victory, to run life's race,
Through Christ Jesus I've become a
