Can I Get a Witness Lyrics

Maybe you got faith
In where this is going
Maybe I'll pull up the stakes
And I'll be letting go

I could not believe
I could not believe
Can I get a witness, witness
Can I get a witness, witness
Can I get a witness, witness

You know a lot of times I think how big
And I feel lost on the zag zig now

I could not believe
I could not believe
Can I get a witness, witness
Can I get a witness, witness
Can I get a witness, witness

And some of these people are just so lame
I don't feel like a pupil
Just a loser on a game show

I just can't believe it
No, I can't believe it
Can I get a witness, witness
Can I get a witness, witness
Can I get a witness, witness

I'm rooting for you
And I toasted when I heard about you
And how you got a witness
A citizen maybe in another place
Here comes the wind
I'm a chaser
It's time to leave
Here comes
It's time to leave

Can I get a witness, witness

Can I get a witness, witness

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.
