How to Use the Lyrics Generator

Whether you’re a seasoned songwriter, an aspiring artist, or just someone with a catchy hook stuck in your head, the Lyrics Generator from Word Studio is a powerful AI song lyric generator designed to bring your ideas to life. With just a few prompts, you can write a song with AI in any style or genre. From pop anthems and folk ballads to freestyle rap and musical theatre, this tool helps you generate song lyrics quickly and creatively.

In this guide, we’ll walk you through how to use the tool effectively, offer inspiration for each input field, and share helpful tips to ensure the output aligns with your vision. Let’s dive in.

The Lyrics Generator form includes three main fields and a generate button. Here is an overview

1. What Are the Lyrics About?

Here’s where you give the lyrics generator the foundation it needs to write a song with AI that feels personal and inspired. The tool accepts open-ended input, which gives you flexibility. You can include any of the following:

• A subject or theme:
• A rough storyline:
• A hook or chorus idea
• Personal notes or random musings
• Imagery or metaphors
• A rough draft or unfinished lyrics

Treat this field like a brainstorming space or the opening of a songwriting journal. The more detail you give, the more tailored your lyrics will be.

2. Choose a Style Preset

The dropdown menu under Style Presets includes a wide array of genre-based templates that shape tone, structure, and word choice. These presets help guide the AI to generate song lyrics in a form that aligns with industry expectations or creative aesthetics.

Here are some examples of what’s available:

• Any – (Let the AI choose the most fitting style based on your input.)
• Pop – Catchy hooks, upbeat vibes, and relatable themes.
• Rock – Gritty riffs, rebellious spirit, and lyrics full of energy.
• Indie/Alternative – Quirky, poetic, and introspective lyrics with a raw, authentic feel.
• Country – Storytelling ballads about love, heartache, home, and life’s simple joys.
• Hip-Hop/Rap – Clever rhymes, wordplay, and strong rhythmic flow.
• R&B/Soul – Smooth, emotional lyrics about passion, longing, and connection.
• Blues – Raw, heartfelt lines that channel sorrow, resilience, and the human condition.
• Folk – Simple, narrative-driven verses rooted in tradition, community, and nature.

• Custom (enter in custom style box) – Define your own unique style manually.

You can pick “Any” if you want the AI to choose based on your input, or manually enter a custom genre that best fits your vision.

3. Custom Style (Optional)

Get specific with your genre, subgenre, or hybrid style. If the preset list doesn’t quite capture what you’re after, use the Custom Style field. This allows for more granular control. You might enter:

• “Early 2000s pop-punk”
• “Broadway-style musical duet”
• “Classic outlaw country”

This is especially useful for niche styles or blending genres. The AI will use this guidance to shape tone, vocabulary, and song structure accordingly.

4. Custom Instructions (Optional)

This is where you can really dial in the details. The Custom Instructions field lets you steer the lyrics generator with specific requests. You can include directions on format, tone, point of view, rhyme scheme, and more. Here are some example instructions:

• “Write in AABA format with a strong chorus hook.”
• “Keep it first-person, emotional, and conversational.”
• “Add a bridge with a tonal shift to hopefulness.”
• “Use metaphors related to the ocean and tides.”
• “Keep the lines short for performance with a beat.”

This is the place to inject your signature style or address special performance needs. Want a dramatic stage-ready closing line? A repeating call-and-response? Say so here.

5. Click “Write Lyrics”

Once you’ve filled out your details, simply click the “Write Lyrics” button. In seconds, the lyrics generator will craft a song tailored to your vision. Review the results, tweak your prompt if needed, and generate again to explore different variations.  Make sure to save your text to your computer or device, they will not be retrievable after you leave the page or regenerate.

• Iterate Often: Don’t hesitate to run a few variations with different moods or styles.
• Combine Fields Creatively: Pair a light theme (e.g., summer romance) with a serious tone (e.g., acoustic folk) for interesting contrast.
• Use Custom Instructions: The more detailed and specific your input, the more custom and professional the output can be.

Even though you’re using AI to generate song lyrics, your creative direction and storytelling instincts are what make the final result shine. This AI-powered lyrics generator helps you generate song lyrics that are creative, structured, and ready to edit. All you need is an idea for a song, and this lyrics generator will help bring it to life.
