1. Whether you like it or not, you need to look inward for your true self.
Or:
2. Even if I hate it (facing my true self), I need to stare down into my true self

What do you think? I think that since it's the speaker that needs to look into the trueself, maybe he don't like it but he do anyway?
I don't see too much difference between 1 and 2. He is saying that looking inward is not always pleasant but it can often help you discover new things about yourself, so he thinks he must do that sometimes in order to write good songs.
