Condemnation Lyrics

Condemnation, tried
Here on the stand with the book in my hand
Truth on my side
Accusations, Lies
Show me my sentence I'll show no repentance
I'll suffer with pride
And if for honesty you want apologies
I don't sympathize
For kindness you substitute blindness
Please open your eyes
Condemnation, why?
Because my duty was always to beauty, that was my crime
Feel elation, high
No I can't trust this fix of injustice time after time
If you see purity as immaturity
Well it's no surprise
For kindness you substitute blindness
Please open your eyes

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.
