Songwriting & AI Music Generation

Everything here is a GUIDELINE, not a rule. Art breaks rules on purpose. Use what serves the song. Ignore what doesn't.

What do you need?

Write or revise lyrics? ├─ Original song → read songwriting-craft.md — structure skeletons, rhyme types, meter, emotional arc, hooks, prosody └─ Parody / new lyrics over an existing song → read parody-adaptation.md — skeleton mapping, syllable/stress fitting, concept work

Generate music with Suno? ├─ Style prompt, metatags, Custom Mode → read suno-prompts.md — style formula, full metatag catalog, field limits └─ Pronunciation or vocal delivery problems → read the Phonetic Tricks section of suno-prompts.md — respelling, delivery control

Load the smallest set of references that fits the task. A full song-from-scratch run needs craft + suno; a quick prompt fix needs only suno-prompts.md.

Workflow

1. Write the concept/hook first — what's the emotional core?
2. If adapting an existing song, map its structure (syllables, rhyme, stress) following parody-adaptation.md
3. Generate raw material — brainstorm freely before structuring
4. Draft lyrics into the structure, applying craft from songwriting-craft.md (structure, rhyme mix, energy mapping, show-don't-tell)
5. Read/sing aloud — catch stumbles, fix meter
6. Build the Suno style description using the formula in suno-prompts.md — paint the dynamic journey
7. Add metatags for performance direction and fix pronunciation risks, both per suno-prompts.md
8. Generate 3-5 variations minimum — treat them like recording takes
9. Pick the best, use Extend/Continue to build on promising sections
10. If something great happens by accident, keep it

EXPECT: ~3-5 generations per 1 good result. Revision is normal. Style can drift in extensions — restate genre/mood when extending.

Lessons Learned

• Describing the dynamic ARC in the style field matters way more than just listing genres. "Whisper to roar to whisper" gives Suno a performance map.
• Keeping some original lines intact in a parody adds recognizability and emotional weight — the audience feels the ghost of the original.
• The bridge slot in a song is where you can transform imagery. Swap the original's specific references for your theme's metaphors while keeping the emotional function (reflection, shift, revelation).
• Monosyllabic word swaps in hooks/tags are the cleanest way to maintain rhythm while changing meaning.
• A strong vocal persona description in the style field makes a bigger difference than any single metatag.
• Don't be precious about rules. If a line breaks meter but hits harder, keep it. The feeling is what matters. Craft serves art, not the other way around.
