write about whats on your mind as in your life and how you grew up, emotions such as dpression, if you like a girl then why not write about her
 
or go through open mic and think of stuff and get inspired
or go and google "random topic generator"

if you don't know what to write about....just write in rhyme...or think in rhyme...and at some point you'll catch a steady train of thought...and then you run with it...you put it ALL down...and then u can cut shit out if u want...

If you stuck about what to write about chances are you are a new writer and it has more to do with your rhyming 'vocab'...like you can't connect the words together so can't conceive of tackling a topic

Learn to walk before you can run I'd say...rhyme about anything, doesn't really matter if it says on the same topic, concentrate on developing that side first then worry about the concepts and ideas later

when i was younger...i used to choose a topic...or rather, and idea for a story...like "its this guy's birthday and he comes home and finds his dad sleeping with his girl"...and then i would start writing the story...and i'd try to make it rhyme...and as the story went on, it got easier...even if the rhyming is shitty at first, its good practice

Yeah Cuba is right to be honest...don't force topics if they don't come to you... they should start doing so eventually... If they don't, then maybe this isn't for you
. . . Now who said they fuckin' with me?
They just said that FUCKIN' with me
They didn't mean it
Nah . . .
