How long does it take you to write?
on average how long does it take you too write a full song.. hook and all
some people are quicker than others but im lookin for just a general idea of how much time/thought people put into their music.

Depends how dedicated I am to that certain track. Sometimes, I'll start a track and get writers block for that particular song, and go back and write verses for other tracks I'm doing aswell.
I write weird I know, I'll have about 5 or 6 tracks with a verse and ahook all incomplete...
but the other night at my bro in laws studio I wrote a complete track in under 20 minutes.
so yea it just depends

Depends on what I'm writing.
I'm a perfectionist, so on a full track, 2 Verses
and a Hook. I usually spend two days on it.
2 Hours each day, I finish it the first day.
Then the second day, I make revisions, etc.
For a Free written .... or just a regular verse
I usuallu spend about 30 minutes on it.

But when I get regular, or inspired, ain't no stoppin it. I'm
thinkin' up lines all day, on paper, microsoft word, and in my
mind. But i'm Ghost ... peace,
