In answer to the questions, let me see, in verse perhaps.. for all to see?

No.. just plain old scribbles from my pen.

What instruments do you use?Â

The harp, very classic bard. Though it tends to be a rather old and patched thing.

Do you write songs or choose songs and like them on Spotify or YouTube?Â

I prefer to write them, though I only do lyrics. Quite a few give musical descriptions, but alas such is beyond me.
On occasion I may choose a song as a basis, either from some sea shanty source or other. Then I modify to fit the the setting and the story I want to tell.

If you write songs, how do you choose backing music?Â

I don't have an IC music, though I have sometimes picked something on the orchestration player.
I often pick an OOC tune to get the cadence(?) right, and afterwards I may youtube the performance with that tune in the background

Are they songs or more poetry set to music?Â

Maybe both?

Now to add, how to get RP from it rather than just a performance. After all a performance is a done and gone thing, very little RP reward for your craft I think.

I have written songs for weddings, and to do this I interview the couple asking about how they met, what they mean to each other etc.. Great for them to tell a third person their story. This works very well.
Write a song about some RP that happened, this creates some feedback from making your friends famous or infamous.
Sing your advertisements, as Nebula is a peddler of witchy things she is often heard to sing as she walks..
