I have to this paper for college comp and my topic is how my fellow lyricists are getting inspired.. I don't have any friends or coworkers that write lyrics, so im depending on the internet to get some responses. I really want to find out how other people are inspired to write their lyrics. For example, are you driving around in your car and lyrics simply start popping in your head, do you have to be happy/depressed, do you ever hear a word or phrase that sounds cool and a song kind of forms around that.. your responses would help REALLY me out!!
