Return of the North Star Lyrics

"North Star" Excerpt

[Popa Wu]
See, the way to evil
Balance equality in no man
For no man is good and bad at the same time
Either he's good, or he's bad

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
