Music is the most important, which is hardest depends on your natural talents.

Having said that a properly crafted lyric combined with basic music theory determines 80 percent of the music content.

The groove the speed the chord pattern are pretty much proscribed by the lyric. Melodic tension and release also, theory has its cadences to be dealt with, types of pattern repetition so there are only a few notes to actually put in out of choice.

Cheers
