if none of this possible how about showing the lyrics like youtube auto generated captions they pop up word by word making it easy to sing along!

Unfortunately, free and viable methods of obtaining synced lyrics are pretty scarce these days.

Actually I went back into looking into this and I found that there's a way to use Musixmatch API without paying.

  1. Obtain a usertoken from https://apic-desktop.musixmatch.com/ws/1.1/token.get?app_id=web-desktop-app-v1.0&t=${insert-8-letter-random-string}
  2. Call https://apic-desktop.musixmatch.com/ws/1.1/macro.subtitles.get?format=json&namespace=lyrics_richsynched&subtitle_format=mxm&app_id=web-desktop-app-v1.0&usertoken=${usertoken} by also setting q_album, q_artist and q_track.
  3. This will return a json response including synced lyrics so there is a method it just depends if anyone has the time and is willing to implement it

There's a custom client for Spotify that has this feature, might want to check it out: https://github.com/spicetify/spicetify-cli/tree/master/CustomApps/lyrics-plus
