Therapy Session Lyrics - NF

1 Yeah, I gotta say like a month ago

2 I was talking to fans

3 And one of them pulled me aside and said

4 "We never met but I swear that you know who I am

5 I been through a lot

6 I don't know how to express it to people

7 Don't think that I can but I got that mansion CD on rotation

8 That's real for me Nate, you do not understand"

9 It's crazy for me

10 Kids hit me up, say they slitting they wrists on the daily

11 This music is more than you think

12 Don't book me for just entertainment, it's entertaining

13 Hearing these parents, they telling their kids

14 My music is violent, you gotta be kidding me

15 I guess that your definition of violence and mine

16 Is something that we look at differently

17 How do you picture me ah?

18 Want me to smile, you want me to laugh

19 You want me to walk in the stage with a smile on my face

20 When I'm mad and put on a mask, for real though

21 I mean, what you expect from me?

22 I'm tryna do this respectfully

23 They say that life is a race

24 I know my problems'll probably catch up eventually

25 I do my best to be calm

26 How you gon' write me and tell me you slaughter my family?

27 That's just a glimpse to the stuff that get sent to me

28 These the parts of my life that'll never see, woo

29 I am aware it's aggressive

30 I am not here for acceptance

31 I don't know what you expect here

32 But what you expect when you walk in a therapy session?

33 Therapy, therapy session

34 Therapy, therapy session

35 This girl at the show looked me in the face

36 And told me her life's full of drama

37 Said that her dad is abusive

38 Apparently he likes to beat on her mama

39 I got so angry inside

40 I wanted to tell her to give me his number

41 But what you gon' do with it right?

42 You gon' hit him up then he'll start hitting her harder

43 That's real

44 These kids, they come to my shows

45 With tears in they eyes

46 Imagine someone looking at you

47 And saying your music's the reason that they are alive

48 Sometimes, I don't know how to handle it

49 This type of life isn't glamorous

50 This ain't an act for the cameras

51 You see me walk on these stages but have no idea what I'm dealing with after it

52 I put it all in the open

53 This is the way that I cope with all my emotion

54 I'm taking pictures with thousands of people

55 But honestly, I feel like nobody knows me

56 I'm trying to deal with depression

57 I'm trying to deal with the pressure

58 How you gon' tell me my music does not have a message

59 When I'm looking out at this crowd full of people I know I affected?

60 Ah, I got some things in my life, I know I should let 'em go

61 Let me jot it down, let me take a mental note

62 I put it all in this microphone, think about that for a minute

63 What is the point of this song, I'm just venting but what you expect from a therapy session?

64 Therapy, therapy session

65 Therapy, therapy session

66 What you think about me

67 That doesn't worry me

68 I know I handle some things immaturely

69 I know that I need to grow in maturity

70 I ain't gon' walk on these stages in front of these people

71 And act like I live my life perfectly

72 That doesn't work for me

73 Christian is not the definition of a perfect me, woo

74 I ain't the type to be quiet

75 I ain't gon' sit here in silence

76 If I wouldn't say what I say to your face

77 Then I promise you I wouldn't say it in private

78 I am not lying

79 People go off on my page and I'm trying to quit the replying

80 But this is ridiculous

81 I'm passionate man, I really mean what I'm writing

82 You want me to keep it 100? Okay, I'll keep it 100

83 I see a whole lot of talking on socials

84 But honestly, I don't see nothing in public

85 I kinda love it, yeah

86 "Why don't you write us some happy raps?

87 That would be awesome

88 All your music is moody and dark, Nate"

89 Don't get me started

90 You wanna know what it's like if you met me in person?

91 Listen to my verses

92 This music is not just for people

93 Who sit in the pews and pray at the churches

94 I won't reject it

95 I don't expect everyone to respect it

96 I don't expect you to get my perspective

97 What you expect from a therapy session?

98 I mean, I think sometimes people they confuse what I'm doing

99 I write about life, I write about things that I'm actually dealing with

100 Something that I'm actually experiencing, this is real for me

101 Like this is something that personally helps me as well

102 I'm not confused about who gave me the gift

103 God gave me the gift and he gave me the ability to do this

104 And he also gave me this as an outlet

105 And that's what music is for me

106 When I feel something, whether it's anger

107 Um, it's a passion about something, or frustration

108 Like this is where I go, this is, that's the whole NF real music thing man

109 This is real for me, I need this, this is a therapy for me
