Spotics

Embed Lrics (LRC format) from spotify

Changes

• It is very hard to get lyrics from spotify in this program due to spotify's highly complexed authentication process
• For more datails, read this discussion
• From these reasons, I deleted the function to get lyrics.
• In the future, I want to try scraping using Selemium...
