I had spent some time trying to remember a guitar hook I had for a song that I wanted to work on. It just would not happen. For the life of me, I could not remember the chord progression I had developed. I got so frustrated with not being able to do what I had planned. I mean, the ''background noise'' of a calm evening became the source of agitation... It was like my nervous system started to spit flaming iron shards in every direction scorching sanity. Then a gush of internal dialogue simmered in statements of unworthiness. Mental overreaction to plans breaking down was an understatement.
At the peak of my emotional theatrics, I noticed that I had been playing this melody which felt somehow like a medicine. I mean, medicine in a sense that I was able to direct all that feeling and transmute it little by little until the initial fire had been put out. To my surprise, I was left with a sense of mischievous rebellion. ''What an odd combination of words'' I thought to myself.
The following morning i came back and on purpose became curious about frustration. This composition gave me so much permission to explore sounds of intended frustration and observe my relationship to the habit of self violation (sabotage) seeped in unworthiness.
Pebble and Roll lyrics (Credit to ‪@alexdakid08‬ for the name)
How many times am I to break my own back
Before I choose to be nice to myself above else?
This side is mine.
Walk on, rogue wolf.
I can live knowing I lack a skill
But I cannot live knowing I am not enough. Not enough.
I can try knowing I did my best at the time
But I'll stop, if I'm never enough.
(Pebble and roll) - x4
I trip and drown
And I know that
The bottom of well
Is filled with, with despair
Of not enough. Enough.
(nonsense noise)
I can improve and build a new boom
As long as i feel, as long as i feel
Good enough.
(Good enough)
This side is mine.
My soul's beside.
Walk on, rogue wolf.
You grinning devil, walk.
This side is mine.
My soul's beside.
Yeah -aha;
Yeah -aha.
