Every now and then, I stop and ask myself: Where does this all come from?
Since April, I’ve written over 450 songs — across country, rock, blues, folk, psychedelic, protest, and even children’s music. Each one arrives like a guest at the door — unexpected, but always welcome.
I’m still trying to understand the source of this flow. I can hear a single line of a George Jones song and, within minutes, find myself writing something completely new — like “Thought I Had My Forever.” The songs seem to write themselves.
I don’t say this to boast. I say it because I’m genuinely amazed and deeply grateful to be a vessel for whatever this is. Every lyric feels like a small gift from somewhere unseen — and my job is just to catch it before it floats away.
To anyone out there creating: trust the current. Don’t question where the inspiration comes from — just let it come through you.

"trust the current. Don’t question where the inspiration comes from — just let it come through you." I do that, Wyman Brent. And sometimes I'll get part of a script idea from a picture, video, social media, etc., and I come up with the other part later.
