My problem with writing vocal patterns, whenever I'm given the opportunity, is I find it really difficult to write a pattern without a definitive piece to follow it. I'm a big fan of Death Metal and Black Metal which sometimes is rather dissonant and every time I've received a track to write on its been more a wall of noise with no clear melody or harmonics. Even worse, if I find a piece and have a nice lyric idea for, often I find the section agonizingly short. My biggest inspirations right now are bands like Summoning who write very long verses and chorus'. Example their song Old Mornings Dawn has a typical verse-chorus-verse-chorus-"breakdown"-chorus. The verse is nice and long with lots of time to write a melody and pattern, but what I receive is often far shorter with little time to build a foundation to expand from. I'll admit I take inspiration from rather slow pieces but I like really fast bands too but even when I take notes from a band like Cannibal Corpse or even Origin, there's still a least time to adjust from what I can tell. I don't have any actual musician training but I have been practicing for over a decade and it can be really dissuading when I come across situations like these.
I think it's a good idea to clear your mind of how a song structure should be and other songs you're used to hearing, and really hone in on what direction you want your song to go. Remember, there's no right or wrong way to approach this. It's all about writing a song that you love and that speaks to you. And if you're passionate about your song, that passion will be felt through the song when others listen to it.

You're welcome and glad this helped!!
If a song was called “Into Blood We Fade”, what would it be about.
Sounds like something you can take off with 🤘
lots of words, no information here.
There's plenty of information in here if you pay attention (hence the other comments).
You think of genres too much
Not sure what you mean by that...?
What?
No he is not, u are talking nonsense
