Lights go out
It's getting late, these people will not hear a sound

Said I'm married hoe

Fuck what I'm saying
Don't know what I mean
Do it for love and my damn team
People they come, people they leave
But they not ever fucking with me
I am the beast, I am a dog
Four years deep, still proving them wrong
One for the money, two for the show
If you got a problem you know who to call
I came from nothing, now I got something
They gassing these people up like ethanol

Crazy to think that I've barely begun
Ain't got to my best, wait till I'm done

Disappear till I blast up on the scene

Never stuck somewhere between
Know what I want
Working my way just to get to the top
Don't care about top ten
Put me in the conversation
When we talking bout people that be making a difference
Please keep your distance
I do shit that makes you question your entire existence
Tripping, I'm twisted
Back to the scheme
I know I'll never be mainstream
Cause I'm not doing the same thing
That everybody else is doing
They can't even get up on my team
I need a movie on widescreen
I need my wife in a big house
Cause she deserve it, she been down
Lotta years, can't keep count
Lotta y'all can't spit
Can't rhyme like this
Y'all could never commit
Best bet just quit
Faking all your raps
Say it's the truth, we know it's cap
Say you just do it cause you love it
But we all know it's the money yeah yeah

The lyrics to D.R.E.'s song "Code" address themes of perseverance, self-confidence, and ambition. The song's opening and closing lines contrast the spotlight of a performance with the secrecy of preparing for it - "curtains close" and "lights go out" at the start and end of the song - creating a sense of urgency and thrill. The chorus repeatedly warns the listener to yell "code red" when a dangerous man is approaching, perhaps as a metaphor for the obstacles and distractions that can derail one's success. D.R.E. also references his own past struggles and persistence to "make it," and confidently asserts his superiority over other rappers.
The lyrics offer glimpses into D.R.E.'s personality and perspective, as he focuses on the importance of hard work and ambition. His repeated declaration of "I'm married to the game" demonstrates his level of commitment and dedication to his craft. He also raps about his desire to stand out from the crowd and do something different, which is reflected not just in the song's lyrics but also in its atypical structure and sound (with a heavy brass section and a slower tempo).
Overall, "Code" is a powerful and confident track that showcases D.R.E.'s unique style and approach to rap music.
