[00:09.36]Written by：Tommee Profitt/Nate Feuerstein
[00:18.72]Yeah I gotta say like a month ago
[00:22.07]I was talking to fans
[00:23.32]And one of them pulled me aside and said
[00:25.03]We never met but I swear that you know who I am
[00:27.68]I been through a lot
[00:29.04]I don't know how to express it to people
[00:30.93]Don't think that I can but I got that mansion CD on rotation
[00:34.18]That's real for me Nate you do not understand
[00:36.31]It's crazy for me
[00:37.58]Kids hit me up say they slitting they wrists on the daily
[00:40.16]This music is more than you think
[00:41.74]Don't book me for just entertainment it's entertaining
[00:44.67]Hearing these parents they telling their kids
[00:46.82]My music is violent you gotta be kidding me
[00:49.12]I guess that your definition of violence and mine
[00:51.69]Is something that we look at differently
[00:53.31]How do you picture me ah
[00:55.06]Want me to smile you want me to laugh
[00:57.82]You want me to walk in the stage with a smile on my face
[01:00.35]When I'm mad and put on a mask for real
[01:03.44]I mean what you expect from me
[01:04.98]I'm tryna do this respectfully
[01:06.65]They say that life is a race
[01:08.11]I know my problem probably catch up eventually
[01:10.87]I do my best to be calm
[01:12.51]How you gon' write me and tell me you slaughter my family
[01:15.18]That's just a glimpse to the stuff that get sent to me
[01:17.48]These the parts of my life that'll never see woo
[01:20.64]I am aware it's aggressive
[01:22.37]I am not here for acceptance
[01:24.09]I don't know what you expect here
[01:25.48]But what you expect when you walk in a therapy session
[01:30.29]Therapy therapy session
[01:39.09]Therapy therapy session
[01:46.94]This girl at the show looked me in the face
[01:48.86]And told me her life's full of drama
[01:51.39]Said that her dad is abusive
[01:52.82]Apparently he likes to beat on her mama
[01:55.58]I got so angry inside
[01:57.21]I wanted to tell her to give me his number
[01:59.76]But what you gon' do with it right
[02:01.35]You gon' hit him up then he'll start hitting her harder
[02:03.64]That's real
[02:04.63]These kids they come to my shows
[02:06.38]With tears in they eyes
[02:07.70]Imagine someone looking at you
[02:09.20]And saying your music's the reason that they are alive
[02:11.93]Sometimes I don't know how to handle it
[02:13.61]This type of life isn't glamorous
[02:15.22]This ain't an act for the cameras
[02:16.83]You see me walk on these stages but have no idea what
[02:19.39]I'm dealing with after it
[02:20.78]I put it all in the open
[02:22.33]This is the way that I cope with all my emotion
[02:25.01]I'm taking pictures with thousands of people
[02:27.16]But honestly I feel like nobody knows me
[02:29.53]I'm trying to deal with depression
[02:31.07]I'm trying to deal with the pressure
[02:32.72]How you gon' tell me my music does not have a message
[02:35.28]When I'm looking out at this crowd full of people I know I affected
[02:38.65]Ah I got some things in my life I know I should let 'em go
[02:44.50]Let me jot it down let me take a mental note
[02:47.67]I put it all in this microphone think about that for a minute
[02:51.89]What is the point of this song
[02:53.27]I'm just venting but what you expect from a therapy session
[02:57.55]Therapy therapy session
[03:06.32]Therapy therapy session
[03:14.60]What you think about me
[03:16.29]That doesn't worry me
[03:17.42]I know I handle some things immaturely
[03:19.58]I know that I need to grow in maturity
[03:21.83]I ain't gon' walk on these stages in front of these people
[03:24.44]And act like I live my life perfectly
[03:26.18]That doesn't work for me
[03:27.78]Christian is not the definition of a perfect me woo
[03:31.57]I ain't the type to be quiet
[03:33.33]I ain't gon' sit here in silence
[03:34.81]If I wouldn't say what I say to your face
[03:36.85]Then I promise you I wouldn't say it in private
[03:39.19]I am not lying
[03:40.28]People go off on my page and I'm trying to quit the replying
[03:43.67]But this is ridiculous
[03:45.23]I'm passionate man I really mean what I'm writing
[03:47.79]You want me to keep it 100 okay I'll keep it 100
[03:51.32]I see a whole lot of talking on socials
[03:53.16]But honestly I don't see nothing in public
[03:55.64]I kinda love it yeah
[03:57.90]Why don't you write us some happy raps
[03:59.93]That would be awesome
[04:01.23]All your music is moody and dark Nate
[04:04.32]Don't get me started
[04:07.16]You wanna know what it's like if you met me in person
[04:09.56]Listen to my verses
[04:10.73]This music is not just for people
[04:12.34]Who sit in the pews and pray at the churches
[04:15.26]I won't reject it
[04:16.28]I don't expect everyone to respect it
[04:18.60]I don't expect you to get my perspective
[04:20.69]What you expect from a therapy session
[04:28.13]I mean I think sometimes people they confuse what I'm doing
[04:36.06]I write about life I write about things that I'm actually dealing with
[04:40.73]Something that I'm actually experiencing this is real for me
[04:44.67]Like this is something that personally helps me as well
[04:47.97]I'm not confused about who gave me the gift
[04:50.12]God gave me the gift and he gave me the ability to do this
[04:53.35]And he also gave me this as an outlet
[04:55.57]And that's what music is for me
[04:57.40]When I feel something whether it's anger
[05:00.11]Um it's a passion about something or frustration
[05:02.59]Like this is where I go this is this is
[05:05.91]That's the whole nfrealmusic thing man
[05:08.01]This is real for me I need this this is a therapy for me
