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 [?]

Genius Annotation

This is a haiku taken from the New York Times haiku bot which mines words from articles to create beautiful poetry!

This one in particular is close to Rap Genius due to the incredible success of the Science Genius program. It’s based on what professor Christopher Emdin calls “reality pedagogy” – reaching minority students through their culture.
