Balancing Act Lyrics

mom said to you
what will you do?
when life comes to you and
do you even have a clue?
Life is really scary,
growing up and getting married
I think im gonna stop
before my head will pop

Straddling a line between two diffrent worlds,
balancing a beam between homework friends & girls.
Straddling a line between two diffrent worlds,
balancing a beam between homework friends & girls.'

Friends said to me,
just the other day
we never have the time
to sit around and jazzle on
said to him
"man things are diffrent now"
yeah your the one, yeah you know how

Straddling a line between two diffrent worlds,
balancing a beam between homework friends & girls.
Straddling a line between two diffrent worlds,
balancing a beam between homework friends & girls.'

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.
