How do I write song lyrics?
Start with one feeling or story, write a short chorus that says it in one or two lines, then two verses that show it with concrete details. Keep lines short and similar in length, repeat the chorus, and mark sections with [Verse] and [Chorus] so the AI knows where the hook goes.

Pick one idea
A song carries one message: "I miss my hometown", "you made this summer". Write it down in one sentence before any rhyme.
- 2
Write the chorus first
Two to four short lines that state the idea plainly. This is the part people remember, so it repeats.
- 3
Show it in the verses
Use pictures instead of labels: a street name, a smell, a song on the radio. Each verse adds a new detail.

Keep the rhythm even
Lines of similar length are easier to sing. Read them aloud; if you stumble, shorten the line.
