β Continue Lyrics Free
Already have some lyrics written? Click Continue Lyrics and Mureka picks up where you left off.
Use section tags like [Verse], [Chorus], and [Bridge] to structure your lyrics β the buttons above the lyrics box insert these for you.
πΌ Music Appreciation β Directing the Arrangement
If you know musical terms, you can use them to steer Mureka's arrangement β key changes, breakdowns, syncopation, tempo feel, dynamics, and more. This is steering, not scoring: it nudges the output toward what you describe, it doesn't guarantee note-for-note execution. Expect to try a phrase a couple of times and see what sticks.
[ ] Square Brackets β direction for the band
Everything in [ ] is a production instruction, never sung. This is the same system your [Verse] / [Chorus] / [Bridge] buttons already use β you can add musical direction right inside the same brackets. Give each tag its own line, placed right above the section it applies to:
[Chorus β key change up a half step, big vocal harmony stack] lyrics here... [Bridge] [Breakdown β strip to just piano and vocal, syncopated hi-hat re-enters building into final chorus]
Musical directions worth trying: key change / modulate to the relative minor, instrumental breakdown, strip back to just drums and bass, syncopated rhythm, off-beat groove, push the snare ahead of the beat.
πΊοΈ Quick Vocabulary
Hear the idea, learn its name, use it in a prompt. A few starting points if you're new to this:
| If you want⦠| Try saying⦠|
|---|---|
| The song to suddenly lift | key change up a half step |
| A darker section | modulate to relative minor |
| More rhythmic tension | syncopated rhythm |
| A sparse, intimate moment | strip to piano and vocal |
| A dramatic rebuild | breakdown, gradually add drums and harmonies |
| More groove | off-beat bass and syncopated drums |
( ) Parentheses β vocal delivery (experimental β unconfirmed on Mureka)
On other AI music platforms, short text in ( ) attached to a lyric line becomes a background vocal, ad-lib, or harmony layer β something actually sung, not a production instruction. For example: Nothing's gonna stop me now (oh-oh, oh-oh).
This hasn't been confirmed to work the same way on Mureka. Keep parentheses short (1-3 words) and don't rely on them for anything you need to happen β if it doesn't work as expected, the vocalist may just sing the words literally instead. Treat this as worth experimenting with, not a guaranteed feature.
[Mood: sad, happy, angry] tends to average into something vague rather than commit to one direction. Keep tags close to the section they govern rather than stacking everything at the top.ποΈ Song Actions
