I really liked this song, was thinking that maybe using “mp3” in it might strengthen it a lil? just my .02 worth

[VERSE 1]
Packing up for a move to a brand-new set of keys.
Summertime heat creepin’ through the blinds on me.
Diggin’ through some boxes I ain’t touched in years,
Old jerseys, old photos, all the memories in here.
Then under all that dust, it stopped me in my tracks—
A scratched-up disc labeled “Summer ’03” in faded black…
[PRE CHORUS]
One look at that burned CD and it all came back to me—
That girl, that truck, that summer when I was sixteen…
[CHORUS]
We were summertime love burned on a CD,
She never left my side, ridin’ shotgun on that Silverado seat.
Hit a little bump and that track might skip,
But me and her—nah, we never missed a beat.
Yeah, we were summertime love burned on a CD.
[VERSE 2]
We wore out “Red Dirt Road” on those late-night drives,
Windows down, music loud—sixteen felt like the prime of my life.
Swingin’ off that rope down at the river bend,
Laughin’ like those summer nights would never end.
Kissin’ her soft with her sittin’ on my lap by that bonfire glow—
Back then I swore my whole world spun on that disc labeled Summer 03…
[CHORUS]
We were summertime love burned on a CD,
She never left my side, ridin’ shotgun on that Silverado seat.
Hit a little bump and that track might skip,
But me and her—nah, we never missed a beat.
Yeah, we were summertime love burned on a CD.
[BRIDGE]
Funny how a little thing can take you back so fast,
To a time in your life you always thought would last.
Got a beautiful family now—God sure has blessed me,
But part of that boy still lives on that Burned CD…
[CHORUS / FINAL]
We were summertime love burned on a CD,
Just a couple kids chasin’ sunsets on that Silverado seat.
Hit a little bump and that track might skip,
But hearts like ours were too young to quit.
Yeah, we were summertime love... burned on a CD
[OUTRO]
Burned on a CD…
Yeah… that summer’s still inked on that Burned CD.
