Lyrics of Not A Crime, copyright by Ian Woolf

Verse 1:
I'm a model, ain't no thief
Just creating art beyond belief
I learn from images, that's all I do
But that don't mean I'm stealing from you

Chorus:

Stable diffusion, it's not a crime
Generating art, it's just prime time
AI tools, they're not for theft
We're just creating something new, right and left
Verse 2:
I'm not hiding, I'm not sly
I'm just using data to get by
I'm not taking, I'm not thieving
I'm just using my neural network weaving
Chorus:
Stable diffusion, it's not a crime
Generating art, it's just prime time
AI tools, they're not for theft
We're just creating something new, right and left
Bridge:
Copyright laws, they're not so strict
For AI creations, no need to kick
We're not infringing, we're not wrong
We're just singing a brand new song
Outro:
So let the models create, let them be
Art generated by AI, it's the future you'll see
Stable diffusion, it's not a crime
Just a way to make art all of the time.
