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.

Look up in the sky
Those things are real
Look up in your mind
Those stiletto heels
Nation of prisons
Nation of prisons
Nation of prisons
Hooked up to your mind
The aluminum feed
Straight down from the sky
Your mouth diseased
Nation of prisons
Nation of prisons
Nation of prisons
I give up
I can't spend my time
Or light another cigarette
I can't help it
I'm just another guy
I give up
And I guess I will just
I will see you around
Or light another cigarette
I can't help it
I'm just another guy
I'm just another guy
Nation of prisons
Nation of prisons
Nation of prisons
Nation of prisons
Filling up like I knew they would
Nation of prisons
Filling up like I knew they would
