Re-writing verses...

Vudu studios has a new producer who listened to all my songs in their current form to give advice on final touches before mixing. He gave me a few tips, and on some songs, I have to write new parts.

FOREVER NEVER ENDS - The verses suck. They are boring and ineffective. If I was listening to this SLW as an outsider, I wouldn't understand where the song is going. I made them both more melodic and more lyrically-HOOKable!

GOT NO MONEY - The second part of the Pre Chorus. UGLY AS HELL!

PARADE REST - PRE CHORUS IS BORING!

I have extreme difficulty writing lyrics. In fact, I hate writing lyrics. For me, it was something I did best when I was younger, and at this point, I feel that my strongest point in writing songs is melody and choruses! I'm especially struggling with "FOREVER NEVER ENDS", because it's hard to write a verse about the past, when I'm finally losing it!
