I think song writing is hard.
Well, good song writing, anyway.

That's cool that you choose that avenue as a way of expressing yourself.
Takes more courage than I think most peole have to write things down like that.

It is and that is why I rarely write lyrics. It easier to just make the music.

I really get a bit hazy on the difference between composing, producing, recording tho

Composing = Making the music bka beat

Producing = Putting the record together meaning coaching the artists that are recording, handling the mixing with the mixing engineer, and bringing the ideas of the artist(s) and label for the record to life.

Recording = Taking in the performances of the vocal artists and/or musicians.
