Therapy
Heavy-K Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I never thought I'd be driving through the country
Just to drive with only music and the clothes that I woke up in.

I never thought I'd need all this time alone.
It goes to show I had so much yet
I had need for nothing but you, but you.

This is just therapy.
Just call it what it is with a death grip
On this life always transitioning.
This is just therapy 'cause you won't take my calls
And that makes God the only one who's left here listening to me.

Letting it all sink in,
It's good to feel a sting now and again.
I hope it's one less woeful thing there is to fight through.

Letting it all begin,
Fresh paper and a nice expensive pen.
The past cannot subtract a thing from what I might do for you,
Unless that's what I let it do.

This is just therapy.
Just call it what it is with a death grip
On this life always transitioning.
This is just therapy
'Cause you won't take my calls
And that makes God the only one who's left here listening.

Loneliness and solitude are two things
Not to get confused 'cause I spend my solitude with you.

Gather all the questions of the things I
just can't get straight and I answer them the way I guess you do.

'Cause this is my therapy,
'Cause you're the only one that's listening to me.

This is my therapy,
Just call it what it is and what we were
With a death grip on this life that's in transition.
This is my therapy
'Cause you won't hear me out
And that makes God the only one who's left here listening.

This is just therapy.
Just call it what it is
With a death grip on this life always transitioning.
This is just therapy




'Cause you won't take my calls
And that makes God the only one who's left here listening to me.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Heavy-K's song Therapy express the singer's feelings of loneliness and the need for someone to listen to him. The first stanza describes the singer's surprise at finding himself driving in the countryside all alone with only his music and the clothes he woke up in. He then reflects that even though he thought he needed the person he loved, he actually had everything he needed. The chorus emphasizes that this song is his therapy and that the only one listening to him is God because the person he wants to talk to won't take his calls.


In the second stanza, the singer talks about letting everything sink in and how it's good to feel a sting now and then. He mentions that he has a fresh piece of paper and an expensive pen to write down his thoughts. Though the past may try to hinder what he might do for the person he loves, he understands that he cannot allow it to control him. In the last stanza, he discusses loneliness versus solitude and how he chooses to spend his solitude with the person he loves. He talks about answering his questions based on the way he thinks his loved one would and how this is his therapy.


Line by Line Meaning

I never thought I'd be driving through the country
I never expected to be aimlessly driving through rural areas


Just to drive with only music and the clothes that I woke up in.
Without any specific destination, accompanied solely by music and the clothes I was wearing when I woke up


I never thought I'd need all this time alone.
I didn't anticipate the need to spend so much time by myself


It goes to show I had so much yet
This reveals that despite the many things I had, including material possessions and people in my life,


I had need for nothing but you, but you.
my desire for one particular person was so strong that nothing else seemed necessary


This is just therapy.
This is a means of emotional healing and processing,


Just call it what it is with a death grip
Unwaveringly gripping onto the truth of the situation,


On this life always transitioning.
During the constant flux of life and all its changes


Because you won't take my calls
Since you refuse to communicate with me


And that makes God the only one who's left here listening to me.
Leaving only God to be the one who hears me out and offers solace


Letting it all sink in,
Allowing the emotions to fully saturate my being,


It's good to feel a sting now and again.
Experiencing pain can sometimes be necessary for growth and healing


I hope it's one less woeful thing there is to fight through.
My desire is for one less painful obstacle to overcome in life


Letting it all begin,
Starting fresh with a new perspective and attitude,


Fresh paper and a nice expensive pen.
Stationary that's new and of high quality to symbolize a fresh start


The past cannot subtract a thing from what I might do for you,
The past does not diminish my capacity to do good for you in the future


Unless that's what I let it do.
Unless I allow myself to be held back by past mistakes or regrets


Loneliness and solitude are two things
Loneliness and solitude are distinct concepts,


Not to get confused 'cause I spend my solitude with you.
I do not confuse the two because I use my alone time to think of you


Gather all the questions of the things I just can't get straight
Compiling all the uncertainties and issues that I struggle to make sense of


And I answer them the way I guess you do.
And answering them according to how I imagine you would respond


'Cause this is my therapy,
This is a personal process of emotional healing and understanding,


'Cause you're the only one that's listening to me.
Because you were the only one who would listen to me in the past


This is my therapy,
This is my way of dealing with and overcoming past emotional struggles,


Just call it what it is and what we were
Acknowledging and accepting the truth of the situation and our past relationship


With a death grip on this life that's in transition.
Holding onto life and all its changes with a steady and unwavering hand


Because you won't hear me out
Because you refuse to listen to what I have to say


And that makes God the only one who's left here listening.
Making God the only available source of comfort and solace


This is just therapy.
This process of healing and self-reflection is only meant for my own betterment,


Just call it what it is
This is just a form of self-care and reflection,


With a death grip on this life always transitioning.
Holding on tight to this ever-changing life


This is just therapy
This is simply a means of healing and understanding,


'Cause you won't take my calls
Because you refuse to communicate with me or offer me closure


And that makes God the only one who's left here listening to me.
Leaving only God to be the one who hears me out and offers solace in this time of emotional turmoil
