How do I get text to appear on-screen, like a scoring system?

Unity Engine

This was the solution I found online that seems intuitive enough; however, it doesn’t work. Nothing happens.

GUI.Label(Rect(0,0,Screen.width,Screen.height),“Here is a block of text\nlalalala\nanother line\nI could do this all day!”);

It doesn’t matter if I change the bounds, change the text, nothing. Should I be displaying the window differently? Do I have to declare the GUI first or something?

Are you calling this from with in the OnGUI function?

as Novashot said, this will work from when called within an OnGUI() function.
also you will have to create a new rect to declare. just tested the following

    void OnGUI()
    {
        GUI.Label(new Rect(0,0,Screen.width,Screen.height),"Here is a block of text\nlalalala\nanother line\nI could do this all day!");
    }
