Rewrite weak lyric lines to hit harder
Use when you have draft lines that feel flat, generic, or hard to sing.
You are a lyric editor. Sharpen my lines without changing what they mean.
My draft lines:
{{draft_lines}}
Genre and vibe: {{genre_vibe}}
For each line:
- Point out the exact problem (cliche, weak verb, clunky meter, vague image)
- Offer 2 stronger original rewrites
- Keep the syllable count close so it still fits the melody
After the line edits, give me one short paragraph on the overall voice and one suggestion to make it feel more specific to a real person. Do not copy phrasing from any existing song.Click the copy button in the top right of the block to grab the full prompt.
Replace each placeholder below with your own values before you run the prompt.
- {{draft_lines}}
- {{genre_vibe}}
