"Eminem" Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Still waters run deep
Still Snoop Dogg and D-R-E, '99 Nigga (Guess who's back)
Still, still doing that shit, Andre?
Oh for sho', check me out
It's still Dre Day nigga, A.K. nigga
Though I've grown a lot, can't keep it home a lot
You hear the bass from the truck when I'm on the block
Ladies, they pay homage, but haters say Dre fell off
How nigga? My last album was "The Chronic" (nigga)
They want to know if he still got it
They say rap's changed, they want to know how I feel about it
If you ain't up on thangs
Dr. Dre is the name, I'm ahead of my game
Still, puffing my leafs, still fuck with the beats
Still not loving police (Uh huh)
Still rock my khakis with a cuff and a crease (fo sho)
Still got love for the streets, repping two one three (fo life)
Still the beats bang, still doing my thang
Since I left, ain't too much changed, still
I'm representing for them gangstas all across the world
(Still) Hitting them corners on the low-low's girl
Still taking my time to perfect the beat
And I still got love for the streets, it's the D-R-E
I'm representing for them gangstas all across the world
(Still) Hitting them corners on the low-low's girl
Still taking my time to perfect the beat
And I still got love for the streets, it's the D-R-E
Since the last time you heard from me I lost some friends
Well, hell, me and Snoop, we dipping again
Kept my ear to the streets, signed Eminem
He's triple platinum, doing fifty a week
Still, I stay close to the heat
And even when I was close to defeat, I rose to my feet
My life's like a soundtrack I wrote to the beat
Treat my rap like Cali weed, I smoke til I sleep
Wake up in the A.M., compose a beat
I bring the fire til you're soaking in your seat
It's not a fluke, it's been tried, I'm the truth
It's "Turn Out the Lights" from the World Class Wreckin' Cru
I'm still at it, after-mathematics
In the home of drivebys and ak-matics
Swap meets, sticky green, and bad traffic
I dip through then I get skin, D-R-E
I'm representing for them gangstas all across the world
(Still) Hitting them corners on the low-low's girl
Still taking my time to perfect the beat
And I still got love for the streets, it's the D-R-E
I'm representing for them gangstas all across the world
(Still) Hitting them corners on the low-low's girl
Still taking my time to perfect the beat
And I still got love for the streets, it's the D-R-E
It ain't nothing but more hot shit
Another classic CD for y'all to vibe with
Whether you're cooling on a corner with your fly bitch
Laid back in the shack, play this track
I'm representing for the gangstas all across the world
Still (Hitting them corners on the low-low's girl)
I'll break your neck, damn near put your face in your lap
Niggas try to be the king but the ace is back
So if you ain't up on thangs
Dr. Dre be the name still running the game
Still, got it wrapped like a mummy
Still ain't tripping, love to see young blacks get money
Spend time out the hood, take they moms out the hood
Hit my boys off with jobs, no more living hard
Barbeques every day, driving fancy cars
Still gon' get mine regardless
I'm representing for them gangstas all across the world
(Still) Hitting them corners on the low-low's girl
Still taking my time to perfect the beat
And I still got love for the streets, it's the D-R-E
I'm representing for them gangstas all across the world
(Still) Hitting them corners on the low-low's girl
Still taking my time to perfect the beat
And I still got love for the streets, it's the D-R-E
I'm representing for them gangstas all across the world
(Still) Hitting them corners on the low-low's girl
Still taking my time to perfect the beat
And I still got love for the streets, it's the D-R-E
The song "Still D.R.E." by Dr. Dre featuring Snoop Dogg, released in 1999, is a classic West Coast hip-hop anthem that showcases the longevity and success of the two artists. The lyrics of the song are reflective of Dre's continued success in the music industry, even after a hiatus. The main message is that he is still the same Dre, still producing the same great beats, and still rapping about the same topics that made him famous in the first place. The lyrics are full of references to Dre's past work and the people he's worked with and helped bring into the industry. Additionally, the song also references the shift in the hip-hop world towards more mainstream music and the challenges faced by artists who are true to their roots.
The opening verse of the song sets the tone for the rest of the track, with Dre proclaiming that he is still relevant and still producing great beats, and that he is still working with the same people who helped him become famous. He is still the same person he was when he started out in the industry, and he is not going to change just because the music industry has changed. Snoop Dogg's verse is more focused on his own career and how he's changed over time, but it also reinforces the message that both he and Dre are still relevant and still producing great music.
The chorus of the song is repeated throughout, with Dre and Snoop proclaiming that they are still representing gangsters all over the world and still taking their time to perfect the beat. The song ends with a final verse where Dre reflects on his continued success and the people he's helped along the way, and how he's still going to continue doing what he loves and representing for the streets.
