Most of my song ideas come just as I wake up. A verse or chorus just seems to come out of nowhere, I write it down and get back to it later and sometimes struggle to finish it, sometimes it flows with no struggle. Most of what I write now are Gospel songs, so I give God the credit for putting the idea in my mind.

Sometimes I'll hear someone say something in conversation, or read something that stands out as a good idea for a song. I read somewhere that songs are floating around in the air and if you are open and in tune, you can pluck them before they float away. Could be.
