Cm Cm Ab G x2

[Verse 1]
       Cm
Yeah, I gotta say, like a month ago

I was talking to fans

And one of 'em pulled me aside and said
                                                                          Cm
"We never met, but I swear that you know who I am
        Cm
I've been through a lot

I don't know how to express it to people, don't think that I can

But I got that Mansion CD on rotation
                                                                  Cm
That's real for me, Nate, you do not understand"
        Cm
It's crazy for me

Kids hit me up, say they slittin' they wrists on the daily
                      Ab
This music is more than you think
                                        G
Don't book me for just entertainment, it's entertainin'
                     Cm
Hearin' these parents, they telling their kids

My music is violent you gotta be kidding me
                   Ab
I guess that your definition of violence and mine
     G
Is something that we look at differently
                   Cm
How do you picture me, huh?

Want me to smile, you want me to laugh?
                          Ab
You want me to walk on the stage with a smile on my face
                       G
When I'm mad and put on a mask? For real though
Cm
     I mean, what you expect from me?

I'm tryna do this respectfully
                      Ab
They say that life is a race
                                            G
I knew my problems would prolly catch up eventually
             Cm
I do my best to be calm

How you gon' write me and tell me you'd slaughter my family?
                      Ab
That's just a glimpse to the stuff that gets sent to me
                       G
These are the parts of my life they don't never see, woo!
Cm
     I am aware, it's aggressive

I am not here for acceptance
                      Ab
I don't know what you expected
                     Cm
But what you expect when you walk in a therapy session, huh?

[Chorus]
Cm                           Ab       G
     Therapy, therapy session
Cm                           Ab       G
     Therapy, therapy session

[Verse 2]
Cm
     This girl at the show looked me in the face

And told me her life's full of drama (Yeah!)
Cm
     Said her dad is abusive

Apparently, he likes to beat on her mama
Cm
    I got so angry inside

I wanted to tell her to give me his number

But what you gon' do with it, right?
                                                                                            Cm
You gon' hit him up then he'll start hittin' her harder, that's real

These kids, they come to my shows

With tears in they eyes
                      Ab
Imagine someone looking at you
                         G
And sayin' your music's the reason that they are alive
                             Cm
Sometimes I don't know how to handle it

This type of life isn't glamorous
                                                   Cm
This ain't an act for the cameras (Nah!)
Ab
You see me walk on these stages

But have no idea what I'm dealing with after it, nah!
           Cm
I put it all in the open

This is the way that I cope with all my emotion
                 Ab
I'm taking pictures with thousands of people
                                    G
But honestly, I feel like nobody knows me
                   Cm
I'm tryin' to deal with depression

I'm tryin' to deal with the pressure
                                                          Ab
How you gon' tell me my music does not have a message
                                                               G                                       Cm
When I'm lookin' out at this crowd full of people I know I affected? Agh!

I got some things in my life (My life)
                                          Ab
I know I should let 'em go (Let 'em go)

Let me jot it down (Jot it down)
         G
Let me take a mental note (Mental note)
Cm
I put it all in this microphone (Microphone)

Think about that for a minute
Ab
What is the point of this song? I'm just ventin'
      G                                                Cm
But what you expect from a therapy session, huh?

[Chorus]
Cm                           Ab        G
     Therapy, therapy session
Cm                           Ab        G
     Therapy, therapy session

[Verse 3]
Cm
      What you think about me

That doesn't worry me

I know I handle some things immaturely
                                 Gm
I know that I need to grow in maturity
Cm
I ain't gon' walk on these stages, in front of these people

And act like I live my life perfectly

That doesn't work for me
                                                                                       Cm
"Christian" is not the definition of what "perfect" means, woo!

I ain't the type to be quiet

I ain't gon' sit here in silence
                                    Ab
If I wouldn't say what I say to your face
           C                  Gm
Then I promise you, I wouldn't say it in private
G           Cm
I am not lyin'

People go off on my page, and I'm tryin' to quit the replyin'

But this is ridiculous
Ab                                G
    I'm passionate, man, I really mean what I'm writing
                         Cm
You want me to keep it a hundred?

Okay, I'll keep it a hundred
                                              Ab
I see a whole lot of talkin' on socials
                                                       G
But honestly, I don't see nothing in public
                        Cm
I kinda love it, yeah

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

That would be awesome"
C                Ab
"All of your music is moody and dark, Nate"
G
aha Don't get me started (Yeah!)
Cm
      You wanna know what it's like if you met me in person?
                    Ab
Listen to my verses

This music is not just for people
                      G                                               Cm
Who sit in the pews and pray at the churches, nah!

I won't reject it

I don't expect everyone to respect it
           Ab
I don't expect you to get my perspective
                     G
But what you expect from a therapy session?
       Cm
Huh?

[Outro]
Ab        G
I mean,
                   Cm
I think sometimes people they confuse what I'm doin'
                   Ab                                      G
I write about life, I write about things that I'm actually dealing with
        C
Something, that I'm actually experiencing

This is real for me
                    Ab                                                        G
Like, this is something that personally helps me as well

I'm not confused about who gave me the gift
                                             D
God gave me the gift and he gave me the ability to to do this
            Ab
And he also gave me this as an outlet
G
And that's what music is for me
                                    C
When I feel something, whether it's anger

Um, it's a passion about something or frustration
        Ab
Like, this is where I go
           G
This is this is that's the whole "NF Real Music" thing, man

This is real for me I need this
                                Ab
This is a therapy for me
