Why is it so hard to write lyrics and a melody to a loop of chords or a riff, do you have any advice to defeat this issue
if you are trying to add a melody to a riff, there is a good chance the riff already is the melody, so there might not be room for too much more. if you are trying to write to a loop, i suppose you just have to enjoy the loop and be glad you are stuck there. you have to convince yourself that you want to be there. but i would usually prefer not to write to loops, just write, and make the chords subservient to that
