Therapy

In 'Therapy' by Doughboyz Cashout, the group delves into their complex and often tumultuous relationships with women. The song is structured as a mock therapy session, where each member of the group speaks to a psychiatrist about their issues with women. The lyrics are raw and unfiltered, reflecting a deep-seated mistrust and emotional detachment. This detachment is often masked by a facade of bravado and misogyny, encapsulated in the recurring mantra, 'Fuck bitches, get money.'

The first verse, delivered by Payroll, sets the tone for the song. He describes his interactions with women as transactional and devoid of emotional connection. His language is harsh and dismissive, referring to women as 'bitches' and 'snakes.' This attitude is a defense mechanism, a way to protect himself from emotional vulnerability. The imagery of being 'in more bitches walls than boy band posters' further emphasizes his detachment and objectification of women.

HBK's verse continues this theme but adds a layer of personal history. He admits to having been hurt in the past, which has led him to adopt a 'heart-break kid' persona. His experiences have taught him to view relationships as sources of stress rather than joy. He uses his heart 'as a weapon,' indicating a shift from seeking love to using emotional detachment as a form of self-preservation. The recurring theme of mistrust is evident as he talks about women trying to 'trap' him and cause drama.

Brightmore's verse provides a poignant conclusion to the song. He reveals that he wasn't always this way; he once had a heart that was broken. This heartbreak transformed him into a 'savage,' someone who now views love as a vulnerability. He echoes the sentiment that relationships are fraught with infidelity and stress, making single life more appealing. The song ends with the psychiatrist's ironic declaration that the group is 'perfectly fine,' highlighting the normalization of emotional detachment and misogyny in their world.
