Why freeze rhymes the way it does
Freeze is one-syllable, its rhyme-relevant vowel sitting on a high-front /iห/, then it trails off into a fricative. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 134 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 152, assonance 4,804, and consonance 566. That's a deep perfect column. The song can ride strict rhymes from end to end, only sliding into assonance when the line needs to surprise. 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. Freeze reads as more memorable when the strict matches are reserved for the line endings that matter most.
