It depends. If you have an iPhone, you should be able to use iMessage for texting other iPhones through the normal Messages app. Other than that, you'll need some sort of Wifi-based messaging app. Examples would be Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp, or Google Hangouts. I don't have T Mobile, but I think all their text messaging is done over Wifi as well which is different from traditional SMS (short message service) texting and should work on this system.
