You can use exactly zero seconds of any copyrighted song unless you have the necessary license or you can prove that your particular use qualifies under one or more statutory exemptions. Royalty-free music is often still be copyrighted, but the owners simply don't care to profit from its use, which is their choice. There is no "10 seconds" rule for "fair use" in the USA, and in other countries it would only apply to short use for the purpose of advertising the sale of lawful copies of the original.

You would probably have to buy right to license the music or you could just use royalty free music which has no copyrights.
