why cant i see the lyrics on apple music if no internet connection. you used to be able to see them and then all these updates are done and then apple takes out the lyrics.

A few years ago before Apple Music came out I would do my music with iTunes and you would be able to put lyrics in the lyrics section and I would be able to see the lyrics wherever I was. But now with Apple Music I can’t do that unless I have internet connection. I have waited to see if Apple would make it to where I can see lyrics at anytime but it hasn’t happened. Could this be something Apple could do?

iPhone 6s Plus, iOS 11

Apple are paying a separate royalty license for lyrics. It may be that they only must pay if the user requests the lyrics, so they have made the lyrics lazy load it instead of preloading. Without internet you may not be able to see the lyrics in the music player. And, when you have explicit content turned off, lyrics might not be visible to you if they might contain explicit words.

You may refer here for more information.
