I Wanna Be Your God Lyrics

Is it too much to want to hold the sun?
To flip a switch and take the light from
everyone?
Is it too bold to want to crush a soul?
To be the weight bearing down upon your
heart of hearts?
Let’s not go too far
I want to be your God
Watching you and keeping you from harm...
When you lose control
You crawl into a hole
But when I lose control convulsions shake
the stars above
Did I say out loud,
“I want to cut you down”?
Excuse me while I take the ground from
underneath your feet.
Let’s not go too far
I want to be your God
Watching over every one of you.
Now I wanna be your God...
Now I wanna be your God...
Now you wanna be left to fate and
Now you wanna be left in place and
Now you wanna come face to face and
Be free of the eternal embrace...
Well...
I’ll see what I can do about that.
I want to be your God.

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.
