Part 2 (tips and tricks, structure, and ...... all that..)

 Ok so..... as promised, here is my foolproof method for making songs.

Alright, there are a few things that we need to talk about before we get started. 

1 What is the theme of your song

2 What is a title that sums up the theme (pick one)

3 What structure do you want

4 What questions you want to answer in the song

Theme (So the theme of the song is super important, it is the main idea of what your song is trying to say)

Title (When thinking of a title, you need to use the idea of your theme in it. An example of this is, if my theme is about Gods love *for example* then I'd have to think of a title that would tell the person that is listening to my music, about my song even before they play it)

Structure (The meaning of "structure" is the organization of your song, or the arrangement of a songs sections like the verse, chorus, bridge, which creates its shape and flow. So here's an example, 

Questions (Now that we have a main idea about what we want our song to be about, we have to figure out what about the theme we want to talk about. For instance, if my theme is about Gods love, then I need to pick what about Gods love that I want to share, meaning I could either use the saying Gods love itself and reflect on that, or I could pick out particular things about his love that are important to me)

e.g. 1 for structure *the most popular song structure*

Intro (Optional) 

1Verse 

Pre chorus (Optional *this is like the intro for you chorus*)

Chorus

2Verse

Pre chorus

Chorus

Bridge

Pre chorus

Chorus 

4th and last Chorus (optional)/ outro (Optional)

The most basic song structure is

e.g. 2

Intro

V1

PC

CH

Outro

A more complicated structure:

You can adopt different techniques, and if you want you can add more structure than is shown in e.g. 1, especially if you're using an instrument.

Ok 😅 so is this enough info *or must I do a part 3*

My love for songwriting is really strong and it is super important in my life, it's my way of expressing myself. I hope this gives you guys enough information so that you can pick up a notebook and write songs too!
