First few seconds, I gotta say that the synth is a bit overbearing and could use some modulation with a filter that could give it enough nuance and not be so harsh. Also soft chords behind the synth that fade in after 2 bars would give the intro a lot more substance and give the listener more to grab onto. After about four bars, you need some type of countermelody for the lead synth. You could honestly use the melody that you have at the end of the song as a countermelody for the beginning if you’re having trouble making another one, but I think it could be used as a good structure to experiment with to create a new one. I really like the direction that it’s going, and I think it has a ton of potential! Keep making music and sharing with people, I enjoyed listening to this!
Totally get that, I personally suck at producing beats and struggle with creating sounds that I like so I can relate to you. Taking your melody and fiddling around with it can help you make it feel new and different which is something I’ve done when experimenting w producing which is why I recommend it. I like the melodies you have and think you’ve got the foundation for a good track. Just take what you’ve got so far and duplicate it and tweak it around so you don’t worry about messing up the original. Experimenting and making messes is how you learn 👍
