The Good Life

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.

Cover art for 7 in the Morning lyrics by Good Life, The

by Mellow_Harsher MOD

According to Tim himself: "My insistence on making records feel cohesive! We had decided early on that “Midnight Is Upon Us” would be a suitable closer for the album, and it was around that time I imagined opening the album with the song as well, resulting in an infinite, “cohesive” loop if the album were to be played on repeat. “7 In The Morning” is a mini version of the aforementioned “Midnight,” with lyrics to help usher in the album, as well as provide a setting for a very loose concept of the album occurring over one day."
