Through My Actions Lyrics

Ambition stifled
Or is it just deterred?
Narrowness of scope
The new kind of hope
Acceptance of impurities are few in between
Losing myself, I was a compassionate being
Down
I feel I am rotting inside
Help me
Reality subsides
Holding on
Stop my soul from bleeding
Carry out
The state of my mind's redeeming
The choices I made
The price I paid
Was never enough
It will never be enough
Don't tell me what to feel
The truth will be revealed through my actions
Not my words
I don't understand the way we treat each other
I don't understand why we rape one another
I won't accept what's been accepted
I'll love all that's been neglected
My actions show
Show that I care
I won't sit back
I won't sit back and stare
I won't accept what's been accepted
I'll love all that's been neglected
I'll make a change
I'll make it better for you

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.
