I am trying to make a rank card using PIL and discord.py UPDATED - discord.py

Question

i have a leveling system, using discord.py, i am trying to make a rank card, like mee6 and arcane. i wanna get the image to display the users rank and xp
heres the command that works, but i want to make it into a image.
#bot.command(aliases = ['rank','lvl'])
async def level(ctx,member: discord.Member = None):
if not member:
user = ctx.message.author
with open('level.json','r') as f:
users = json.load(f)
lvl = users[str(ctx.guild.id)][str(user.id)]['level']
exp = users[str(ctx.guild.id)][str(user.id)]['experience']
embed = discord.Embed(title = 'Level {}'.format(lvl), description = f"{exp} XP " ,color = discord.Color.green())
embed.set_author(name = ctx.author, icon_url = ctx.author.avatar_url)
await ctx.send(embed = embed)
else:
with open('level.json','r') as f:
users = json.load(f)
lvl = users[str(ctx.guild.id)][str(member.id)]['level']
exp = users[str(ctx.guild.id)][str(member.id)]['experience']
embed = discord.Embed(title = 'Level {}'.format(lvl), description = f"{exp} XP" ,color = discord.Color.green())
embed.set_author(name = member, icon_url = member.avatar_url)
await ctx.send(embed = embed)
and heres my crappy atempt.
#bot.command()
async def text(ctx):
text = [f"level {lvl}, exp {exp}"]
user = ctx.message.author
img = Image.open("rank.jpg")
with open('level.json','r') as f:
users = json.load(f)
lvl = users[str(ctx.guild.id)][str(user.id)]['level']
exp = users[str(ctx.guild.id)][str(user.id)]['experience']
text = ['Level {}'.format(lvl)]
draw = ImageDraw.Draw(img)
font = ImageFont.truetype("font.ttf", 150)
draw.text((480,445), text, (0, 0, 0,), font=font)
img.save("rankcard.jpg")
await ctx.send(file = discord.File("rankcard.jpg"))
and heres the console error, i doubt theres only one error with my code
Ignoring exception in command text:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Users\Jack\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39\lib\site-packages\discord\ext\commands\core.py", line 85, in wrapped

File "C:\Users\Jack\Desktop\just some code\bot.py", line 33, in text
text = [f"level {lvl}, exp {exp}"]
UnboundLocalError: local variable 'lvl' referenced before assignment
The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:
Traceback (most recent call last):

if you could fix up the code for me. i would be ever so greatful.
-thanks
UPDATE: i have now sorted those issues out but still trying to figure this out, my code:
#bot.command()
async def test(ctx,member: discord.Member = None):
global lvl, exp
if not member:
user = ctx.message.author
with open('level.json','r') as f:
users = json.load(f)
img = Image.open("rank.jpg")
lvl = users[str(ctx.guild.id)][str(user.id)]['level']
exp = users[str(ctx.guild.id)][str(user.id)]['experience']
text = [f"level {lvl}, exp {exp}"]
draw = ImageDraw.Draw(img)
font = ImageFont.truetype("font.ttf", 150)
draw.text((480,445), text, (0, 0, 0,), font=font)
img.save("rankcard.jpg")
await ctx.send(file = discord.File("rankcard.jpg"))
and my error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Users\Jack\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39\lib\site-packages\discord\ext\commands\bot.py", line 902, in invoke
await ctx.command.invoke(ctx)

raise CommandInvokeError(exc) from exc

You have to firstly define lvl and exp in the text function or global it as this is not found.
#bot.command()
async def text(ctx):
lvl = ...
exp = ...
text = [f"level {lvl}, exp {exp}"]
user = ctx.message.author
OR
#bot.command(aliases = ['rank','lvl'])
async def level(ctx,member: discord.Member = None):
global lvl, exp
if not member:
user = ctx.message.author
with open('level.json','r') as f:
