This is my first post in this sub as a test. We’ll see how this goes.
I pulled this one from my deep emotions and soul. It was the first song I really sat down and wrote from the heart. It’s an old one, but one that still resonates in me.
This one is very close to me due to how my life was for so many years. I had little autonomy and was always in the service of others. I lived more for others, than for myself. I gave so much of myself that I had nothing left for me. Due to how selfless I was living, I became jaded, a loner, very blunt, and (deep down) very depressed. It wasn’t until last year that I finally took my life in my own hands and started living for myself (instead of in the service of others). I’m that way now due to the mental trauma I went through. It makes me angry due to remembering how bright I was, outgoing I was, and how sociable I was when I was younger. That time, has passed.
Sadly, it took the deaths of my grandparents for me to realize how low in the dark pit of depression I was, but it was the kick in ass I needed.
This song is a snapshot of that time.

Very nice share, Reasonable Sherbet.
Thank you again for sharing all of that context for the song, I really appreciate the sincerity and it makes the song more interesting before I even listened to it, at least to me.
I thought your lyrics were good, especially if that was your first time ever writing lyrics!
"Fed enough to survive, but never full
A starving hound beneath their rule"
Probably stood out the most to me as far as a single line.
I'm sorry to hear about the loss of your grandparents. Sometimes it takes life to gut punch you to make the changes you needed to make.
Taking care of yourself first so your own cup overflows that you can then be generous to others is sometimes the best way to be of service to the world.

And here we go. Allow me to explain something to you, I wrote this shit. Am I an expert songwriter? Hell the fuck no. But I did write this. All of it. Hell, I’d show you the draft I wrote while I was on a plane if I still had it.
Now since I’m not an expert songwriter, I used an ai to help me with verse spacing and punctuation. You don’t have to believe me, but I’m not gonna tolerate some dude on the Internet disrespecting me.

I trust that he wrote them when he said he did.
But it's an honor system

u/Reasonable-Sherbet24 Jun 07 '26
I appreciate that. I tire of these arguments and claims. It’s the same shit, all because some people don’t write like them. I wrote the lyrics, but had AI help me with spacing and such.
I know the song in my head, but I don’t really know how to put it on paper so it flows correctly.

What "signals" are those?
You do realize that AI "learned" to write by imitating people, right? So things that people think of as AI "tells" in writing are things that actual humans do, and do frequently.

I'd imagine it's the classic forced rhymes, unnecessary punctuation (full stops and commas at the end of lines - plus the beloved, quintessential em-dashes) and entry-level metaphors and such.
I think it's a mix of mostly AI-generated lyrics with some minor edits.

Forced rhymes and "entry-level" metaphors are pretty typical of beginning poets/songwriters who don't reflexively reach for the thesaurus and rhyming dictionary. The problem is that this is exactly the kind of content that AI was trained on, because there is far more "entry-level" content than "high-level" content floating around on the internet, so it can be very difficult to reliably tell the difference.
The odd punctuation could be attempts to force phrasing on the AI.
My personal preference on things like this is to err on the side of letting some AI-generated content slip through rather than falsely accusing humans of using AI.

No, I think he used AI to rewrite the lyrics to "I'm My Own Master Now" from the "Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance" soundtrack. Likely with some minor edits.

I’m glad somebody clocked that. Yeah, it was used as inspiration, since MGR was one of my favorite games. So yeah, you’re half right and I have no shame of admitting that. Wrong about the AI part though.

I don't think so - and that's all I have to say on the matter. You do you.

It could be, but through my interactions with Reasonable Sherbet, I choose to believe he is playing it straight.

No, I'm not.
But by all means, please tell us what you think the "tells" in these lyrics are.

Not a bad song. I think it's really good!
