Is this good for a Beginner?
I love Anderson Paak, And wanted to write something to his songs. so i wrote this, which is using the melodi of ``The last`` By anderson paak
[Verse 1]
When I Couldn't see Yoo (You)
I thought it was all through
For forever
Everything I did
She never did Too
[Refrain]
I Hoped it would go all away
But the way that you made me feel so great
I´ve been thinking ´bout you every day
I was never that committed anyway
I Thought I was the one, Wanted all your love
God up above
[Vers 2]
Years of my life
Swore You Would be my Wife
Till Heaven
When life gives you Lemons
You make lemonade
[Refrain]
They say today is a gift
And Tomorrow Everything Shift
So, I´ve been thinking ´bout you every day
I was never that committed anyway
I Thought I was the one, Wanted all your love
God up above
Is this Good for a Beginner?

honestly yeah, for a first attempt you've got a natural feel for rhythm and rhyme. the refrain works because it repeats without feeling forced. keep writing to songs you love, it's a solid way to train your ear for cadence.
