Yeah, I gotta say like a month ago<br />I was talking to fans<br />And one of them pulled me aside and said<br />"We never met but I swear that you know who I am<br />I been through a lot<br />I don't know how to express it to people<br />Don't think that I can but I got that mansion CD on rotation<br />That's real for me Nate, you do not understand"<br />It's crazy for me<br />Kids hit me up, say they slitting they wrists on the daily<br />This music is more than you think<br />Don't book me for just entertainment, it's entertaining<br />Hearing these parents, they telling their kids<br />My music is violent, you gotta be kidding me<br />I guess that your definition of violence and mine<br />Is something that we look at differently<br />How do you picture me ah?<br />Want me to smile, you want me to laugh<br />You want me to walk in the stage with a smile on my face<br />When I'm mad and put on a mask, for real though<br />I mean, what you expect from me?<br />I'm tryna do this respectfully<br />They say that life is a race<br />I know my problems'll probably catch up eventually<br />I do my best to be calm<br />How you gon' write me and tell me you slaughter my family?<br />That's just a glimpse to the stuff that get sent to me<br />These are the parts of my life they don’t ever see, woo<br />I am aware it's aggressive<br />I am not here for acceptance<br />I don't know what you expect here<br />But what you expect when you walk in a therapy session?<br />Therapy, therapy session<br />Therapy, therapy session<br />This girl at the show looked me in the face<br />And told me her life's full of drama<br />Said that her dad is abusive<br />Apparently he likes to beat on her mama<br />I got so angry inside<br />I wanted to tell her to give me his number<br />But what you gon' do with it right?<br />You gon' hit him up then he'll start hitting her harder<br />That's real These kids, they come to my shows<br />With tears in they eyes<br />Imagine someone looking at you<br />And saying your music's the reason that they are alive<br />Sometimes, I don't know how to handle it<br />This type of life isn't glamorous<br />This ain't an act for the cameras<br />You see me walk on these stages<br /> but have no idea what <br />
