but you have a number of interesting problems,

it is spelled self-aliGNment-X

> \override Lyrics.LyricText #'self-alingment.X=#'-1

and you must separate the Context.GrobName with spaces.

Would you please send full examples, that works a lot nicer.

I wanted to refer you to the documentation

http://www.lilypond.org/doc/v2.3/Documentation/user/out-www/lilypond-internals/LyricText.html

but it says created by: none.  Han-Wen?

\new Lyrics \lyrics {
\override LyricText #'self-alignment-X = #'-1

%is correct but
\new Lyrics \lyrics {
\override Lyrics . LyricText #'self-alignment-X = #'-1
  aaaa bbbb
}
