Don't Think About It! (Lyric Writing Advice)

Being a songwriter myself, I can say that the only thing that makes writing lyrics harder is trying to think about what to write. Let the lyrics come to you. Trust me, it happens. Just relax, and think about the emotion you're having in that moment and nothing else. Eventually, they just come. It's unexplainable. It just happens. Usually, for me, I'll think about the "spark of the moment" and just fall asleep. when I wake up, the words are just in my head.
It's amazing, the impact a set of lyrics can have on a person. The best lyrics come from the heart, not the brain.
