I like to use near-rhymes in writing, which aren't always so expected.
And I also like writing with no rhymes and it's a good challenge. I have to start out with the intent of not rhyming.
I mostly try staying away from the expected trope or theme whether it be songs of love, done me wrong, country etc. When I do use them, I do it with a different or twist.
Oh my, I really like almost all of lyrics. They have melodys that most seem to just come as I write. Some of the melodys are keepers some get changed as they are being worked on. My problem is finishing the music so it becomes a presentable song.
