#14 replaced the copyrighted lyrics that were in the test suite (song lyrics quoted in the align, transcribe, lyrics and notes tests, plus two complete community UltraStar charts in tests/fixtures/). The text is still in git history before that merge.

Removing it from history means rewriting history (e.g. git filter-repo) and force-pushing main. Every clone and open branch would then need re-basing onto the new history. This issue records that the decision is pending; nothing needs doing if leaving it in history is acceptable.
