A few tips before you write
Write from the heart. The most honest line usually beats the cleverest one.
Listen to music like a songwriter, not just a listener — notice the choices being made, not just how the song makes you feel.
Study artists you think are great — people like Olivia Rodrigo and Taylor Swift are a good place to start. Break their songs down: what's the hook, where does the bridge turn, what makes a line land.
Study anyone you personally admire, even outside music — great writing is great writing.
Write like you're writing a poem. Lean on imagery and rhythm before you worry about it fitting a melody.
Tap "New prompt" for an idea.
Pick a song to write live.
