Scapegoat Lyrics

corrupt errupting authority watchin over me all the time rhyme after rhyme i'm keepin'
it real w/ that spat out flow of steele, those lyrics promote a unity of the real people,
but still sometimes i feel like a walkin conspiracy theory to all of the motherfuckers
around who got a problem w/ my ways it's ok i'll keep my head up w/ my chin down bull
forward head on collision, w/ those who ain't got no faith in the cause that i feel i need
to get across in my lifetime the clock's tickin' time's winding down so make it all
worthwile stop blamin' me, i'll be your scapegoat.....these psychotic tendencies you have
for me just comin' out of nowhere, nah, if you spoke your mind more often you'd see it's not
me, cause i'm your teacher your preacher a creature willing to take on my own
responsibilities though, i'll be your scapegoat blamed by your ego's unwillingness to
be confronted and true, lackin' respect you choose to spit in the wind, but Karmas' chasin'
you blamin' me, I'll be your....Blamed black sheep I stray, ostracised for being me...

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.
