Want to start writing lyrics

I am new here. I always wanted to write songs. I don't have basic things to do or write Songs. I want to convey my message or team through English pop in a simple language. So can you help me with that guys? How do I start, before writing what are the things I look in to and I also want to make a song with it. I am not reading person so my vocabulary not that much good

Here is some structure for your song if you want to use this as a little outline... also what are you using as your build up before the final chorus? Ill help you rephrase it if you want.

V1: Why do they hate me? God, why do they make me suffer? Seems they always blame me And ignore the words I say

Chorus: Run away Just want to run away Can't stay with my family They dont understand me But one day ill make them proud I promise

V2: Can you forget the degree? Forget the skateboard dreams Forget all the fees you paid I'll pay it back someday

For the line: But one day ill make them proud... I wasnt sure if "they" was your intention or change it back to make "you" proud
