Question for lyricists [View all]

Last edited Mon Aug 1, 2022, 04:59 PM - Edit history (1)

I’m looking to write music for a song but am terrible at lyrics. Good lyrics inspire me. Does anyone have any lyrics that you could share with me? They don’t even have to be that good.

You will get a credit for writing the song and all proceeds will be split 50/50. (That was a joke).
I just want to do this for myself. I feel I can create a good song but need help.

Thanks in advance for anyone taking me seriously.
