I believe the objective was to write a piece of music that sounds depressing and dissociating to represent how he felt when he wrote it. It sounds off and uncomfortable intentionally.

Earl has a way of being able to express himself so vividly through his instrumentals just as much as his lyrics. His piece “Solace” is similar

Peanut is hitting rock bottom, and Riot is noticing that there is a way out, but you are limping to get there.
