Yeah, I gotta say like a month ago
Verse 1
Cm
I was talking to fans
And one of them pulled me
aside and said
G
"We never met but I swear that
Cm
you know who I am
I been through a lot
I don't know how to express it
to people
Don't think that I can but I got that
Ab
Mansion CD on rotation
G
That's real for me Nate, you
Cm
do not under stand"
It's crazy for me
Kids hit me up, say they slitting
they wrists on the daily
Ab
This music is more than
you think
G
Don't book me for just enter tainment,
it's entertaining
Cm
Hearing 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, ah?
Want me to smile,
you want me to laugh
Ab
You want me to walk in the stage
with a smile on my face
G
When I'm mad and put on a mask,
Cm
for real though
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'll probably
catch up eventually
Cm
I do my best to be calm
How you gon' write me and tell me
G
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 that'll never see,
Cm
woo
I am aware it's aggressive
I am not here for acceptance
Ab
I don't know what you
expect here
G
But what you ex pect when you walk in
Cm

Verse 2

This girl at the show looked me in the face
Verse 3
Cm
And told me her life's full of drama
Said that her dad is abusive
G
Ap parently he likes to beat on her mama
Cm
I got so angry inside
I wanted to tell her to give
me his number
G
But what you gon' do with it, right?
You gon' hit him up then he'll
start hitting her harder
Cm
That's real
These kids, they come to
my shows
With tears in they eyes
Ab
Imagine someone looking at you
G
And saying your mu sic's the reason
that they are alive
Cm
Sometimes, I don't know how
to handle it
This type of life isn't glamorous
This ain't an act for the cameras
Ab
You see me walk on these stages but have no
G
idea what I'm dealing with after it
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
But honestly,
G
I feel like nobody knows me
Cm
I'm trying to deal with depression
I'm trying to deal with the pressure
How you gon' tell me my music does
Ab
not have a message
G
When I'm looking out at this crowd full
of people I know I affected?
Cm
Ah, I got some things in my life,
Ab
I know I should let 'em go
Let me jot it down,
G
let me take a mental note
Cm
I put it all in this microphone,
think about that for a minute
Ab
What is the point of this song, I'm just venting but
G
what you expect from a therapy session?
Cm
Therapy,
Verse 4
Ab
G
therapy session
Cm
Ab
G
Therapy, therapy session
Cm
What you think about me
Verse 5
Cm
That doesn't worry me
I know I handle some things immaturely
G
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
G
Christian is not the definition of
Cm
what perfect means
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
G
Then I promise you I wouldn't
say it in private
Cm
I am not lying
People go off on my page and I'm trying
to quit the replying
Ab
But this is ri diculous
I'm passionate man,
G
I really mean what I'm writing
Cm
You want me to keep it a hundred? Okay,
I'll keep it a hundred
I see a whole lot of talking
Ab
on so cials
But honestly,
G
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
Ab
All your music is moody and dark, Nate"
G
Cm
Don't get me started
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
Who sit in the pews
and pray at the churches
Cm
I won't reject it
I don't expect everyone to respect it
Ab
I don't ex pect you to get my
perspective
G
What you ex pect from
Cm
a therapy session?
Ab
I mean,
Verse 6
G
Cm
I think some times people
they confuse what I'm doing
Ab
I write about life,
Abdim
G
I write about things that I'm actually dealing with
Cm
Something that I'm actually experiencing,
this is real for me
Ab
Like this is something that personally
G
helps me as well
I'm not confused
Cm
about who gave me the gift
God gave me the gift and he gave
me the ability to do this
Ab
And he also gave me this as
an outlet
G
And that's what music is for me
When I feel something,
Cm
whether it's anger
Um, it's a passion about something,
or frustration
Ab
G
Like this is where I go, this is,
that's the whole NFrealmusic thing man
This is real for me, I need this, this
is a therapy for me
