Few prospective music majors endure.
The naive idiots don't understand
that musicianship is all too similar
to english, bio, or psychology.
the fun wears off, the novelty is drowned
by math-like formulas, chord progressions,
six hundred years of detailed history,
and hours of practice with no progress
But music fills a hole you didn't know
your soul was missing, fills you up inside
with life and knowledge and culture,
building and pounding and chipping away
until your entire being explodes
spreading through the world in the form of song.
