Therapy Session chords

[INTRO]
[Cm] [Cm] [Ab] [G] x2

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

I was talking to fans

And one of 'em pulled me aside and said
"We never met, but I swear that you know who I [Cm]am
I've b[Cm]een 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
That's real for me, Nate, you do not unders[Cm]tand"
It's cr[Cm]azy for me

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

[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?
You gon' hit him up then he'll start hittin' her harder, that's [Cm]real

These kids, they come to my shows

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

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

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

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

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

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

Let me jot it down (Jot it down)
Let m[G]e 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'
But [G]what you expect from a therapy [Cm]session, huh?

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

[VERSE 3]
[Cm] What you think about me

That doesn't worry me

I know I handle some things immaturely
I know that I need to [Gm]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
"Christian" is not the definition of what "perfect" means, [Cm]woo!

I ain't the type to be quiet

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

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

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

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

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

That would be awesome"
[C]"All of your [Ab]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?
Listen to my [Ab]verses

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

I won't reject it

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

[OUTRO]
[Ab]I mean,[G]
I think some[Cm]times people they confuse what I'm doin'
I write about[Ab] life, I write about things th[G]at I'm actually dealing with
Some[C]thing, that I'm actually experiencing

This is real for me
Like, this is s[Ab]omething that personally helps me as w[G]ell

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

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

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