I have tried a ton of things, and I looked at a lot of tutorials please help/

So here is a very basic example of how to put a label and an entry widget into a window using tkinter:

def make_window():
 win = tk.Tk()
 label = tk.Label(win, text='Here is a label')
 label.pack()
 dflt = tk.StringVar(win, 'default')
 entry = tk.Entry(win, textvariable = dflt)
 entry.pack()
 win.mainloop()

That’s an Entry widget rather than a Text widget.

The Text widget is called, naturally, Text.

However, it doesn’t support tkinter StringVar, so you need to use its get method, supplying the start and end positions within the contents. For all, use a start value of '1.0' (i.e. line 1, column 0) and an end value of 'end'.
