7 Ways to Die (Song)

So, I made a song about 7 Days to Die and the dumb ways my friend and I have died. It's created using SunoAI (no affiliation at all). It took a while to get it to this state, and the lyrics are still a bit clunky in places, the AI pronounces some words oddly and adds one in a weird place, but I'm comfortable sharing it as this point. The lyrics are below, with bolded text to indicate AI oddities. Let me know what you think.

Oh, I should also add that anything created with Suno, including the music, lyrics, and art is copyrighted to the person inputting the prompts. So, me. Not that I think it's worthy of doing anything with but, just in case, don't sell it and please credit me (forum name will suffice) if shared.

[Intro] 
OooooOOOooooh (stupid intro, but it just skips to Verse 1 without it - ideas would be welcome)

OoooooooOOOOoooh

[Verse 1] 
Digging a tunnel deep and wide,
Shovels in hand, we feel alive.
But one wrong move, the roof caves in,
Buried alive and the darkness wins.

Build our base, spikes all around,
One slip, one fall, and I’m downward bound.
To Mr Newton, I make my plea,
Impaled on my spikes, cruel irony.

Flying in my gyro, no zeds this high, (pronounces 'gyro' oddly)
When my finger slips and I let out a cry.
A panicked scream, a tragic flight,
I attack the ground with my face tonight.

[Pre-chorus] 
We’re living on the edge,
Where the undead rule the laaaaaand!
From every fall to each misstep,
There'll be ...

[Chorus] 
... seven ways to die! (DIE!)
Seven days to try! (TRY!)
In the land of the living dead,
We stumble, scream, and cry! (CRY!)
Seven ways to die! (DIE!)
You will feel the reaper’s scythe! (SCYTHE!)
We live and die, then rise again,
To find seven ways to die! (DIE!)

[Verse 2] 
Molotov thrown, brining fiery pain ,
They'll never get through to us again.
Didn't see the wall, miscalculated,
I'm like burnt meat, immolated!

On top of a tower, feeling so bold,
My teammate's heart turns so cold.
He breaks the base that's holding me high,
The tower collapses, I can only sigh.

Stepping away, I need a break,
Betrayal on their mind, don't hesitate.
Return to the screen, my body's laid out,
An arrow in my skull, through discord I shout!

[Pre-chorus] 
We’re pushing every limit,
In this world where we must surviiiiiive! (odd pronunciation)
Each day a brand new chance,
Of finding ... (odd cadence/clunky lyrics)

[Chorus] 
... seven ways to die! (DIE!)
Seven days to try! (TRY!)
In the land of the living dead,
We stumble, scream, and cry! (CRY!)
Seven ways to die! (DIE!)
You will feel the reaper’s scythe! (SCYTHE!)
We live and die, then rise again,
To find seven ways to die! (DIE!)

[Guitar Solo] 

[Verse 3]
Mines in the fields, I just didn’t see,
A step, a click and it’s TNT.
They see the blast, my body flies by,
Teammates laughing at my demise!

The lootbags beckon at horde night’s end,
Jumping in head first, going full send.
But around the corner, the horde's not done,
Zombies swarm in and I’m the yum!

I tell my buddy, "I can make that jump!" (adds 'black' or 'back' before 'buddy')
From the base to the lake, I ain't no chump.
But I miss the mark, thought I could fly,
Does it still count if my feet ain't dry?!

[Pre-chorus]
We’re dancing with danger,
In this fight to stay aliiiiiive!
Each day we're learning,
another ...

[Chorus] 
... seven ways to die! (DIE!)
Seven days to try! (TRY!)
In the land of the living dead,
We stumble, scream, and cry! (CRY!)
Seven ways to die! (DIE!)
You will feel the reaper’s scythe! (SCYTHE!)
We live and die, then rise again,
To find seven ways to die! (DIE!)

[Outro] 
So many ways, so little time,
In this game, there’s no reason, no rhyme.
But each death is a tale we tell,
Of the seven ways we fell!
Seven ways to die!
Seven ways to die!
Let’s play again and find…
another seven ways to die!

 
Here are my suggestions, first if that is your own musical compilation then

Hell Yeah, copyright it, if not then Invest in instruments or Fruityloops and Kontakt

virtual instruments then copyright it, the words and lyrical compilation make is noteworthy,

memorable, and fun. You are a good composer. I hope it wasn't AI enhanced.

I started singing inadvertently near the middle. It makes me think of a potential mod, true to the name.

Basically no matter what the zombie game stage accelerates as "time passes", on the seventh day all hell

breaks loose. Feral sense all, with every entity released. In the back ground are these four songs looping. Then the PA

loudspeaker plays yours signifying that it's time. It's done well for Project zomboid mp3 mods, and you could try to do it

for other games as well. Good luck     

**EDIT** I just read fully didn't know what was Suno I thought it was a VST. Went straight to the video.  I still like it,   new suggestion ,

If you can write this way yourself, then do it. I still think it could work. I like AI I'm nerdy that way, I just think it takes away from the human potential for creativity.

As a songwriter myself the lyrics are exceptional! This seriously captures a lot of elements and of style is great. How many iterations did this take before you were happy with each part?
