Example lyric structure
[Intro]
(Vinyl crackle, rain sounds)
(Spoken Word sample from old movie)
"I just wanted to be happy..."

[Verse 1]
(Lazy beat kicks in)
Coffee cup is getting cold again
Raindrops falling on the window pane
Study notes are scattered on the floor
Don't know what I'm looking for

[Chorus]
(Soft trumpet melody)
(No lyrics, just vibes)

[Verse 2]
Time is moving slow today
Watch the grey clouds drift away
Headphones on, world is off
Soft hoodie and a cough

[Outro]
(Beat fades, rain continues)
...just wanted to be happy.

Working method

Build around the strongest hook.

Start with the recipe’s sonic vocabulary, then draft the chorus or central motif before expanding the verses. The genre should shape section energy and performance—not merely sit as a label at the top.
