5000 Lyrics

You bullshit
I ain't those, those you talkin'
I seen him down there, out there
On the front, it said, it said they name, is number one
Right there just like dude and them found
And then on the bizzy on the back
It had, we the new kings of the city, am I?
The New Kings of the City
Man, I thought the Kings was in Sacramento
That just make no sense
How you gonna be the kings, oh New Kings
There's Kool king cigarettes
King of what city?
Look, then they broke out
And I got, I got the billboard
Fivе thousand
Five thousand?
Yeah, he camе out, better get an Audi five thousand
Flat out
We gonna have to sue 'em, he killin' em
Now I'ma be broke, aight
It's gettin' pretty ugly up here
Yeah, man, that's gettin', it's gettin' bad, it's gettin' real bad
It's gettin' pretty ugly
Gettin' real bad

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.
