The Follow-up Session - K Rino

La da da da da da

Um, Ms Wilson, you can go ‘head and send the next patient in now, thank you

Mr. K, wow, didn’t expect to see you here

I know

Your follow-up session with me was scheduled years ago

I tried calling you a few times, it made me wonder

Yeah I know, I ignored your phone calls and changed my number

Why?

I had to do some soul-searching pretty fast

Plus that hundred an hour you charge was kicking my ass

The more I thought about it, the more I started to hate you

But I was starting to feel we were on the verge of a breakthrough

Ha, I made due over that period of time

Plus I’m sure you had cases more serious than mine

So I fell back, planning to abandon any help

And any problems that I had I tried to handle ‘em myself

Hmm, so how’d that work out for you, going off the grid?

It didn’t work, I wouldn’t be back in your office if it did

Well I’m glad you finally made a new appointment so let’s load up

Appointment?

I ain’t got no damn appointment, I just showed up

Oh really?

Yeah really, do you have any objection?

Well, last time you pulled a gun so I guess I’ll make an exception

I apologize for that, doc, I’m really not that type, I was going through a

turbulent period in my life, I had woman problems, money problems,

professional struggles, plus spiritual internal warfare, I was in trouble

Are you still making music?

Well yeah, I’m still tryin'

How’s it going?

Lots of people listening, not too many buying

Out of millions of people who could possibly consume it?

Man, my last album probably sold five hundred units

That’s all?

You tryna be funny?

No, no, I’m just surprised, if you want to, we can change the subject

Yeah, that would be wise

Well, please answer this without any malice or hatred — what would you say

right now is the biggest challenge you’re facing?

Well, it’s hard for me to find any peace, balance or patience, and as the

calendar’s racing, I feel my talent is wasting, this repetitious redundancy

ain’t arousing to me, I wish I could go to sleep and make it be 2003,

I be feeling like some kind of force is blocking me in life plus recently some

trifling bastard got me for my bike so now I’m pissed, ready to wipe somebody

out

Hey calm down, this aggressiveness I’ve found appears to be going around,

a lot of my clients seem to be under that same spell, matter of fact,

lately I’ve been quite aggravated as well

You, doc?

Yes, I just haven’t dealt with it directly, see, seven months ago,

my wife of twenty years left me, we’re going through a nasty divorce and

having clashes ‘cause she’s tryna take my children and half of my damn practice

Whoa, whoa, doc, yo, you ok?

I’m fine, hear me out

Ok, why don’t I sit in your chair and you lay on the couch, truth be told,

I just came in here to get me a little therapy, but maybe I should leave

because right now you’re kinda scaring me

No, you can’t leave, sorry, I just feel broken and used, I just need to talk to

somebody, K

Aight, man, cool, what happened?

She set me up and played me like a damn fool, she cheated and ran away with my

buddy from grad school

That’s strong, so what’chu gonna do?

Here, man, take this pillow

I was wondering if you knew someone that I could pay to kill her

Hell naw, say bro, now I’m really about to go

I have the whole thing planned out, no one would ever know

Excuse me, ma’am, (yes) please come and get this man, he in here stressin'

(I'm just a receptionist, sir, I don’t interfere with sessions)

Ok, well I’m out, and I’m sorry for what you went through, and I’m charging

five g’s to keep this session confidential

Man, fool done lost his mind, tryna get me jammed up, hell no, not the kid,

not the kid
