What do you mean by typed into your phone?
Just lyrics? With chords?
Anyway you're gonna want to have a simple audio production software. Mac has garageband, pc has... not sure...
You're gonna want a microphone, I like my blue snowball but there are cheaper alternatives.

Mics i recommend:
shure sm7b (freakin awesome for male vocal especially rap)
shure sm57 (good for male/female singing)
audiotechnica at2020 (good for male/female singing)
Misc:
Get a popfilter they're cheap and a proper mic stand.
And its definitely worth getting an isolation booth for your mic (the thing that goes behind the mic that absorbs the sound) since you're gonna be recording at home not in an actual studio booth.
Audio interface i recommend:
Presonus Audiobox 22VSL (it also has pre-amp)
Studio monitors i recommend:
KRK ROKIT 6 G3 if you have a huge room perhaps Rokit 8's
Headphones i recommend:
AKG K271 MkII
Software i recommend:
Pro Tools
Adobe Audition
Logic Pro (for Mac)
Thats about it for a small home recording studio. Now everything that i've recommended i either had or still have so i'm not talking out of someone elses opinion this is what i've tested myself and worked great not just for me but for other ppl as well. You don't have to take any of my suggestions this is equipment that i've been comfortable working with and definitely was worth investing in.[DOUBLEPOST=1438492018,1438491530][/DOUBLEPOST]Oh if you need a midi keyboard i own M-Audio Oxygen 61 and Keystation 88es they're both good but kind of seeing myself using Keystation 88es more
