Yes the person who wrote the song owns the song until he or she wants to sell it. and say if an artist likes the lyrics then they pay the writer to sort of hire the lyrics as there is and then if the writer agrees to giving them the song lyrics for them to sing then they can use it to sing but when it gets played on the radio etc the writer gets the money, well at least a lot more then then artist because its there song.
