A Bad Place To Reside Lyrics

We hold on tight to the life we know
Fend of and shoo let the murder of crows
They black the sky but straight they go
Would you rather go with the wolf you know

So I hold my hat, Im waiting for the bunny
Ain't no one cut me a break so far
What reasons can you give me but money, yeah
To defend something, I know it ain't right
Against something that's yet to be defined

So don't let nobody throw their dirt upon you
Don't let old Lucifer bring you down
Get your hands up, praise who you wanna praise
Ain't nobody's business but your own
Say what you wanna say
Don't fear for your life no more
It might be better on the other side

I've been to the crossroads
I've seen the signpost
It ain't such a bad place to reside
It ain't such a bad place to reside
It ain't such a bad place to reside

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.
