Dr. Dre - I Need A Doctor

I'm about to lose my mind

You've been gone for so long

I'm running out of time

I need a doctor

Call me a doctor

I need a doctor, doctor

To bring me back to life

I told the world one day I would pay it back

Say it on tape, and lay it, record it

So that one day I could play it back

But I don't even know if I believe it when I'm saying that

Y'all starting to creep in, everyday its so gray and black

Hope, I just need a ray of that

Cause no one see's my vision when I play it for 'em

They just say its wack

But they don't know what dope is

And I don't know if I was awake or asleep

When I wrote this,

All I know is you came to me when I was at my lowest

You picked me up, breath new life in me

I owe my life to you

But for the life of me I don't see why you don't see like I do

But it just dawned on me you lost a son

Demons fighting you, it's dark

Let me turn on the lights and brighten me it'll enlighten you

I don't think you realize what you mean to me

Not the slightest clue

'Cause me and you were like a crew

I was like your sidekick

You gon' either wanna fight me when I get off this fucking mic

Or you gon' hug me

But I'm out of options there's nothing else I can do 'cause

I'm about to lose my mind

You've been gone for so long

I'm running out of time

I need a doctor

Call me a doctor

I need a doctor, doctor

To bring me back to life

It hurts when I see you struggle

You come to me with ideas

You say there just pieces so I'm puzzled

'Cause the shit I hear is crazy

But your either getting lazy or you don't believe in you no more

Seems like your own opinions, not one you can form

Can't make a decision you keep questioning yourself

Second guessing and its almost like your begging for my help

Like I'm your leader

Your supposed to fucking be my mentor

I can endure no more,

I demand you remember who you are

It was you, who believed in me

When everyone was telling you don't sign me

Everyone at the fucking label, lets tell the truth

You risked your career for me

I know it as well as you

Nobody wanted to fuck with the white boy

Dre, I'm crying in this booth

You saved my life, now maybe its my turn to save yours

But I can never repay you, what you did for me is way more

But I ain't giving up faith and you ain't giving up on me

Get up Dre, I'm dying, I need you, come back for fuck's sake

I'm about to lose my mind

You've been gone for so long

I'm running out of time

I need a doctor

Call me a doctor

I need a doctor, doctor

To bring me back to life

Bring me back to life

Bring me back to life

(I need a doctor, doctor

To bring me back to life)

It literally feels like a lifetime ago

But I still remember the shit like it was just yesterday though

You walked in, yellow jump suit

Whole room, cracked jokes

Once you got inside the booth, told you, like smoke

Went through friends, some of them I put on

But they just left, they said they was riding to the death

But where the fuck are they now

Now that I need them, I don't see none of them

All I see is Slim

Fuck all you fair-weather friends

All I need is him

Fucking backstabbers

When the chips were down you just laughed at us

Now you 'bout to feel the fucking wrath of aftermath, fagots

You gon' see us in our lab jackets and ask us where the fuck we been?

You can kiss my indecisive ass crack maggots and the crackers ass

Little crack a jack beat making wack ass backwards producers,

I'm back bastards

One more CD and then I'm packing up my bags and as I'm leaving

I'll guarantee they scream Dre don't leave us like that man 'cause

I'm about to lose my mind

You've been gone for so long

I'm running out of time

I need a doctor

Call me a doctor

I need a doctor, doctor

To bring me back to life
