How to Write Your Next Hit Song with Toby on the GeniusLab Podcast
Songwriting is an art, a science, and a personal journey all rolled into one. On the GeniusLab Podcast, Toby takes you behind the scenes of crafting lyrics, melodies, and rhythms that resonate. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced songwriter, these steps will help you unlock your creative flow and bring your next song to life.
1. Find Your Inspiration
Every great song starts with an idea. Inspiration can come from personal experiences, stories, emotions, or even a simple phrase you hear in passing. Toby often emphasizes the importance of keeping a journal or voice notes of ideas that spark something in you.
Pro Tip from Toby: "Great songs come from real emotions. Don’t force it—let it flow naturally."
2. Choose a Theme or Message
What do you want your song to say? Are you telling a love story, expressing pain, celebrating success, or making a social statement? Your theme will shape your lyrics, melody, and overall mood.
3. Start with a Hook
The hook is the most memorable part of a song—the catchy melody or phrase that sticks in your listener's mind. Toby suggests experimenting with different melodies and lyrical ideas to craft a strong, unique hook that sets your song apart.
4. Write the Lyrics
Once you have a theme and hook, it's time to expand into verses and a chorus. Keep your lyrics concise, meaningful, and emotionally impactful. Use metaphors, imagery, and storytelling techniques to paint a vivid picture.
Toby’s Advice: "Avoid overcomplicating your lyrics. Simplicity often speaks the loudest."
5. Develop a Melody and Chord Progression
Your melody should complement your lyrics and evoke the right emotions. Experiment with different chords and progressions to find the perfect match for your song’s mood.
6. Structure Your Song
Most songs follow a common structure:
Verse 1 – Introduces the story or message
Chorus – The emotional or thematic core of the song
Verse 2 – Continues or expands the story
Bridge – A shift in perspective, emotion, or musical variation
Final Chorus/Outro – Wrapping up the song on a high note
7. Record a Demo
A rough recording helps you hear how your song flows. It doesn’t have to be perfect—just enough to get a feel for the arrangement and performance.
8. Get Feedback and Revise
Play your song for friends, fellow musicians, or even your audience. Be open to constructive criticism and tweak areas that need improvement.
9. Finalize and Record
Once you’re happy with your song, it’s time for the final recording! Whether in a professional studio or at home, make sure your production matches the energy and emotion of your song.
10. Share It with the World!
A song isn’t complete until it’s heard. Share it on streaming platforms, social media, or perform it live. Let your music connect with people.

Chambered a round, shadows to face.

Sometimes the darkness, leaves you bitterly crying

Yet the light breaks through, For you
(Chorus)
Am. F C G
When you’re down and feeling low, oh oh
Am. F C. E
In the ground, deep below, oh oh

Lift your eyes to the heavens, they know,
F C G Am F C E
How to reach and lift you up, oh oh
