What I Say Lyrics

I'm not trying to step on anybody, I'm just speaking out on what I know. I won't bite my tongue, I don't give a fuck if I happen to step on your toes. Because if you're doing something fucked up man, then don't cry about being exposed (x2). Maybe I'm the fucking asshole for believing in what I say, but I can't settle for turning my head and looking the other way. Why is everybody so afraid to stand up for something true (x2)? God damn it, maybe it's me, but am I so wrong for believing in WHAT I SAY? I guess what I'm trying to say... At times being honest means standing alone, but I wouldn't have it any other way. Have you ever really listened to WHAT I SAY? Do you really believe in WHAT I SAY? Have you ever even thought about WHAT I SAY? Why can't you fucking hear WHAT I SAY? Listen to what I fucking say.

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
