Drug Lord Lyrics

The air you breathe you suck
The life out of me
Your mouth moves like
Something shaking loose
God knows these insults don't
Even phase you now

Don't get comfortable
Start thinking I
Still believe you now
I know you're lying

I'd take my death before I'd
Let you win
I am removed there's nothing
Left to prove
You're down, I don't care
You know this life is unfair

Don't get comfortable
Start thinking I still believe you now
I know you're lying
I know you're lying
I know you lie

If I believe you now then I'm to blame
but I know what you are
So don't get comfortable
Start thinking I don't realize it now
I know you're lying
I know you're lying
I know you lie

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.
