A vocalist wants to work with me on some music if I write the lyrics and melodies. I can mix, produce, etc but I've never done anything with vocals. I feel like anything I write would be dull or cringe.

Do y'all have advice or anything I should try to avoid?

I find one nice line or a weird concept. From there I kind of speak it out and find the first couple of chords that might fix my speech patterns. If I can get the first line or two, it just flows from there.

Depending on what you're going for, it helps to have a genre or theme. If I start with "sad cowboy" it sort of builds itself from there.
