Can I sync subtitles to background music in Ren'Py?

[Sonomi]

I'm curious if I can make something similar to an anime opening subtitle. I want the lyrics to appear at the bottom of the screen, sort of like this (SAO "Crossing Field" opening, for example), with a still CG in the background. The best case scenario would also have a dot or color effect emphasizing each word. Is it possible to do this with Ren'Py? If so, I would be grateful for any general advice or guidance.

I know how to make text appear in the textbox, like you would for dialogue and narration; however, I'd like to have the lyrics appear outside of that area. Perhaps just above the textbox or along the topmost portion of the screen.

What you have in that pic is hard embedding of subbs, they likely used .ass files, and encoded them into the video through programs such as Aegisub. It's more work than it seems to do those subtitles.

Doing it in Ren'Py without hard-embedding the subs, song, and CG into a mpeg of mp4, and then calling it, I have no idea how you would do that, nor if it is even possible to do it without doing it as a video file.

Okay, I understand.

Perhaps it would be easier to compose a video... I'll have to read over the tutorial again to see how that works.

This is precisely what ATL is for.
Make the subtitles an image, then code them with the time function.
I'm unable to give an example right now, but I can almost guarantee it is easily doable.
