In Tradition Lyrics

I've got to show you i'm an individual
I saw you be a woman
You can't just show me your personality
I saw you be a guy
Don't you uphold the image
We are the ones doing double
Don't you uphold the image
We are the ones doing double
Let's divert gender
Let's divert gender from the start
Let's divert gender
I find that I have damned public rules
On how to be a woman
You find that there aren't advice
On how to be a man
Caught in a cycle of oppression
So fucking hard to break free
Caught in a cycle of oppression
So fucking hard to break free
Let's divert gender
Let's divert it from the start
Let's divert gender
Let's divert it from the start
Let's divert gender
Let's divert it from the start
Let's divert gender
Let's divert it from the start
Realize that there choices
I want to challenge the expectations
Of what defines a woman
Of what defines a man

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.
