The writing process is very much like being in a dark tunnel, and you don't really know what you will end up with until you have created it.
I just write what comes to me. I didn't sit down and say ok, here is my statement. It's just a song that has a shout out.
The nature of making music and making art, what motivates me is that it's interesting. It's interesting to listen, to really listen to other people's point-of-view. Take in their work. Listen to the way they sing. Listen to the way they write lyrics. What they are trying to express.
I don't really write journals and stuff and then adapt them to music, it's completely within the form of the song. My great obsession and basically the bane of my existence is caring probably too much about every word, but it's too late to change my career path.
