Common words like this gain weight from the company they keep on the line. Songwriters reach for it as a low-register anchor. There are essentially no strict perfect rhymes, the family-rhyme bucket is bare, and the vowel-only slant column is the deepest of the five.

Why energy rhymes the way it does
The phonology of energy is a three-syllable core: the short /ɪ/ (/ɪ/), then it ends on an open vowel. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 0 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 53, assonance 10,972, and consonance 65. That's a narrow strict column with a very deep slant well beneath it. Modern songwriting reads those slants as rhymes; the ear has been trained on them for a century. Practical: skim the strict column first and pick the two or three matches you can sing without thinking. Then move to assonance for the in-between lines. Energy reads as more memorable when the strict matches are reserved for the line endings that matter most.
