<![CDATA[a guide to song creation]]>as a music writer of 3 years, ill finally share my guide on the best way to write one.

the best example is a poem, theres a few types.. tanka acrostic cinquain.. and many others.. the thing in common though with poems, would be a "rhyme scheme" a rhyme scheme follows a set of alphabetical ordered letters in a pattern with the ending being the rhyme.

for example a good one would be: ABAB

A: i was once a small boy
B: used and beat in a home small town story
A: only thing that cared was my small toy
B: all i heard was that voice in my head and it told me.

or another would be:

ABBA
or any other it can even be

ABCABC or ABABBA etc etc

a rhyme scheme is your best bet. try it out sometime :)

Smell of beef making everyone proud.
Lettuce crisp, tomato red,
Cheddar melting on top of your head.
Add bacon crispy, cheese gooey,
This burger game? It’s totally wooey.
No lettuce-only fake-out here,
Just pure meaty, cheesy cheer.
Stack it high, take a bite,
Juice running down your shirt all night.
Cheeseburger king, that’s the throne,
Best damn meal you’ve ever known. 🍔🎤

ABAB ABAB ABAB C ABAB ABAB ABAB C

that way through the song you can have one rhyme as a constant, which could be your song name.
