Instructions
Step 1
Select the topic you want to write lyrics about. For example, most of the themes of contemporary works are related to love. This feeling is close to every person. Someone has already experienced it, someone is just preparing to meet him. That is why love songs are held in high esteem by many listeners.
Step 2
Determine if you are claiming the commercial success of your piece. Words to music, reflecting the personal experiences of the author, often add up to a text that is difficult for ordinary people to understand. For a song to be a commercial success, you need simple, easy-to-remember rhymes. This is especially true for the "summer" songs. Try not to confuse poems that are written to express personal feelings with those that are being prepared for the charts.
Step 3
Follow a few rules to write good words for music. First, try to write about what you really know. Secondly, in no case do not hesitate to use beautiful words to express your feelings. Third, make up your mind to only write about topics that really interest you and that you love.
Step 4
Before starting work, ask yourself two questions: will people want to listen to your text, will the artist want to sing it, if the topic you have chosen is relevant. Honest answers to these questions will help you adjust the theme, choose the direction of rhyme and find the right words for the song.
Step 5
Use a special technique to write good words for music that famous authors follow. First, find a suitable title for the song. Make sure you understand your title perfectly. When pronouncing the name, you should draw a clear picture of what needs to be discussed further in the text.
Step 6
In the second step, fill the first verse with ideas and information. It should clearly mirror the title of the song. The second verse should contain additional information for the listener, "feeding" the first verse with special details. At this point, decide if your song will contain a bridge (so-called chorus). He should reflect both verses, feeding them with unobtrusive additional information.
Step 7
Start writing the lyrics directly. Now that you have a complete set of ideas, small sketches, it will be easier for you to find the right words and connect them with beautiful rhymes.
Step 8
While writing the text, do not be lazy to check each line. The song is a very compact story set to music. Each new line should carry individual information, work on the development of the plot and express the feelings of the performer. Resist the temptation to make a common mistake of novice authors: repeat the thoughts already said over and over again and "twist" the action in the same place.
