| [00:00.16] |
I told the world one day I would pay it back |
| [00:02.87] |
Say it on tape, and lay it, record it so that one day I could play it back |
| [00:06.74] |
But I don’t even know if I believe it when I’m sayin' that |
| [00:09.83] |
Doubts startin' to creep in, every day it's just so grey and black |
| [00:12.92] |
Hope, I just need a ray of that, 'cause no one sees my vision |
| [00:16.12] |
When I play it for ‘em, they just say it's wack, but they don’t know what dope is |
| [00:19.12] |
And I don’t know if I was awake or asleep when I wrote this |
| [00:22.10] |
All I know is you came to me when I was at my lowest |
| [00:25.01] |
You picked me up, breathed new life in me, I owe my life to you |
| [00:28.10] |
But for the life of me, I don't see why you don't see like I do |
| [00:31.25] |
But it just dawned on me you lost a son, demons fighting you, it’s dark |
| [00:34.86] |
Let me turn on the lights and brighten me and enlighten you |
| [00:37.40] |
I don't think you realize what you mean to me, not the slightest clue |
| [00:40.41] |
'Cause me and you were like a crew, I was like your sidekick |
| [00:43.50] |
You gon' either wanna fight when I get off this fuckin' mic |
| [00:46.39] |
Or you gon' hug me, but I'm outta options, there's nothin' else I can do 'cause |
| [00:49.52] |
I'm about to lose my mind |
| [00:53.74] |
You’ve been gone for so long |
| [00:56.13] |
I’m runnin' outta time |
| [01:00.45] |
I need a doctor, call me a doctor |
| [01:06.64] |
I need a doctor, doctor |
| [01:11.11] |
to bring me back to life |
| [01:14.05] |
It hurts when I see you struggle |
| [01:16.12] |
You come to me with ideas |
| [01:17.47] |
You say they're just pieces, so I’m puzzled |
| [01:19.65] |
'Cause the shit I hear is crazy |
| [01:21.31] |
But you're either gettin' lazy or you don’t believe in you no more |
| [01:23.57] |
Seems like your own opinions, not one you can form |
| [01:26.72] |
Can't make a decision you keep questionin' yourself |
| [01:29.20] |
Second guessin' and it's almost like your beggin' for my help |
| [01:32.35] |
Like I’m your leader |
| [01:33.72] |
You're supposed to fuckin' be my mentor |
| [01:35.70] |
I can endure no more I demand you remember who you are |
| [01:38.54] |
It was YOU, who believed in me when everyone was tellin' |
| [01:41.59] |
You don't sign me, everyone at the fuckin' label, let's tell the truth |
| [01:45.04] |
You risked your career for me |
| [01:46.86] |
I know it as well as you |
| [01:48.34] |
Nobody wanted to fuck with the white boy, Dre, I’m cryin' in this booth |
| [01:51.30] |
You saved my life, now maybe it's my turn to save yours |
| [01:54.15] |
But I can never repay you, what you did for me is way more |
| [01:57.29] |
But I ain't givin' up faith and you ain't givin' up on me |
| [02:00.20] |
Get up Dre I'm dyin', I need you, come back for fuck’s sake, 'cause |
| [02:03.23] |
I'm about to lose my mind |
| [02:07.20] |
You’ve been gone for so long |
| [02:09.88] |
I’m runnin' outta time |
| [02:13.99] |
I need a doctor, call me a doctor |
| [02:20.09] |
I need a doctor |
| [02:23.25] |
doctor to bring me back to life |
| [02:30.91] |
Bring me back to life |
| [02:36.92] |
Bring me back to life |
| [02:44.62] |
(I need a doctor, doctor to bring me back to life) |
| [02:51.54] |
It literally feels like a lifetime ago |
| [02:54.94] |
But I still remember the shit like it was just yesterday, though |
| [02:58.28] |
You walked in, yellow jump suit |
| [03:00.18] |
Whole room, cracked jokes |
| [03:01.75] |
Once you got inside the booth, told you, mic smoke |
| [03:04.63] |
Went through friends, some of them I put on |
| [03:06.82] |
But they just left |
| [03:08.25] |
They said they was ridin' to the death, but where the fuck are they now? |
| [03:11.41] |
Now that I need them, I don't see none of them |
| [03:14.13] |
All I see is Slim, fuck all you fair-weather friends, all I need is him |
| [03:17.08] |
Fuckin' backstabbers, when the chips were down you just laughed at us |
| [03:20.62] |
Now you bout to feel the fuckin' wrath of Aftermath, faggots |
| [03:23.73] |
You gon' see us in our lab jackets and ask us where the fuck we been? |
| [03:27.49] |
You can kiss my indecisive ass crack, maggots and the crackers' ass, little cracker jack beat |
| [03:32.73] |
Makin' wack math, backwards producers, I'm back bastards |
| [03:36.14] |
One more CD and then I’m packin' up my bags and as I’m leavin' |
| [03:39.44] |
I’ll guarantee they scream, "Dre, don’t leave us like that man!" 'cause |
| [03:42.44] |
I'm about to lose my mind |
| [03:45.88] |
You’ve been gone for so long |
| [03:48.58] |
I’m runnin' outta time |
| [03:52.09] |
I need a doctor, call me a doctor |
| [03:58.74] |
I need a doctor |
| [04:01.59] |
doctor to bring me back to life |
