Still
Dr.Dre Ft Snoop Dogg Lyrics

Yeah nigga
Acknowledging the audience's presence and commanding attention

I'm still fucking with ya
Still engaging with the audience, despite any ups and downs

Still waters run deep
Quiet people can have a lot going on beneath the surface

Still Snoop Dogg and D-R-E, '99 nigga
Both rappers are still here and continuing their careers

Guess who's back
Asking a rhetorical question, announcing their presence

Still doing that shit huh Dre?
Sarcastic, acknowledging Dre's consistent abilities and talent

(Oh for sho', check me out)
Affirming agreement and asking the audience to confirm their approval

It's still Dre Day nigga, AK nigga
Reinforcing the idea that Dre is still on top of his game

Though I've grown a lot, can't keep it home a lot
Despite personal growth, still active and present in their profession

'Cause when I frequent the spots that I'm known to rock
Going to familiar places where they are respected and appreciated

You hear the bass from the truck when I'm on the block
Acknowledging how their music is still influential and strong

Ladies they pay homage, but haters say Dre fell off
Receiving both praise and criticism

How nigga? my last album was The Chronic (Nigga)
Confidently stating that the last album released was undeniably successful

They want to know if he still got it
Curiosity and anticipation about their current work

They say rap's changed
Acknowledgement of the changing styles and sounds of rap music

They wanna know how I feel about it
Requesting Dr. Dre's thoughts and opinions on the changes

(If you ain't up on thangs)
Invitation to keep up with current trends and events

Dr. Dre is the name
Establishing and reinforcing their identity

I'm ahead of my game
Asserting dominance and relevance in their profession

Still puffing my leafs
Continuing to smoke marijuana

Still fuck with the beats, still not loving police
Staying loyal to what they love and what they don't

Still rock my khakis with a cuff and a crease
Maintaining a certain style and image

Still got love for the streets, reppin' 213 (For life)
Showing love and loyalty to their city and neighborhood

Still the beats bang, still doing my thang
Affirming the continuance of a successful music career

Since I left ain't too much changed, still
Acknowledging that not much has been altered since they last released music

I'm representing for them gangstas all across the world
Proudly and confidently representing a specific group of people

Still hitting them corners in them lo-lo's, girl
Maintaining the lifestyle of cruising in a lowrider car

(Still taking my time to perfect the beat
Acknowledging attention to detail and perfectionism in their work

And I still got love for the streets, it's the D-R-E)
Reinforcing the idea that they still care about their community and culture

Since the last time you heard from me I lost some friends
Highlighting that they have experienced loss since their last music release

Well, hell, me and Snoop, we dippin' again
Reunited with Snoop Dogg for collaboration

Kept my ear to the streets, signed Eminem
Maintaining an awareness of trends and popular culture, signing a new artist

He's triple platinum, doing 50 a week
Bringing attention to the success of Eminem's music

Still, I stay close to the heat
Remaining alert and prepared for any challenges or dangers

And even when I was close to defeat, I rose to my feet
Acknowledging resilience and determination in difficult situations

My life's like a soundtrack I wrote to the beat
Comparing their life story to the rhythm and lyrics of a musical track

Treat rap like Cali weed, I smoke 'til I sleep
Using the comparison of smoking weed to describe their enjoyment and continuous engagement in rap music

Wake up in the A.M., compose a beat
Working on music as soon as they wake up in the morning

I bring the fire til you're soaking in your seat
Creating music that is engaging and intense for the listener

It's not a fluke, it's been tried, I'm the truth
Stating that their success and skill in music is not a coincidence, but has been consistently proven

Since Turn Out the Lights from the World Class Wreckin Cru
Referencing a song they worked on earlier in their career

I'm still at it, after-mathematics
Maintaining success and engagement in the industry, suggesting that it is a result of careful planning and strategy

In the home of drive-bys and ak-matics
Referencing the dangerous and violent aspects of their hometown of Compton

Swap meets, sticky green, and bad traffic
Describing aspects of their community, including street markets and marijuana

I dip through then I get skin, D-R-E
Stating that they are still active and present in their community and culture

It ain't nothing but more hot shit
Declaring that their most recent music is high-quality and successful

Another classic CD for y'all to vibe with
Promoting their new music release as another incredible work of art

Whether you're cooling on the corner with your fly bitch
Addressing their audience directly and acknowledging that people from different walks of life can still appreciate their music

Laid back in the shack, play this track
Encouraging people to relax and listen to their music

I'm representing for the gangstas all across the world
Repeating their message of pride and loyalty to a specific audience

Still (Hitting them corners on the lo-lo's girl)
Maintaining their lifestyle and self-image

I'll break your neck, damn near put your face in your lap
Creating intense and potentially violent imagery in their lyrics

Niggas try to be the king but the ace is back (So if you ain't up on thangs)
Reasserting their dominance and challenging any competitors

Dr. Dre be the name still running the game
Still asserting that they are a powerful and successful presence in their industry

Still, got it wrapped like a mummy
Continuing to have strong skills and talent

Still ain't tripping, love to see young blacks get money
Staying grounded and not becoming arrogant, while also encouraging success and empowerment for black people

Spend time out the hood, take they moms out the hood
Encouraging young people to help their families and communities

Hit my boys off with jobs, no more living hard
Encouraging people to help their friends and create better lives for themselves

Barbeques every day, driving fancy cars
Descriping a luxurious lifestyle that they are happy to share with their loved ones

Still gon' get mine regardless
Reinforcing dedication and determination to success

Right back up in ya mothafuckin' ass, 9-5 plus four pennies!
A bold and assertive statement about their ability to stay in the game and consistently deliver high-quality work

Add that shit up, D-R-E right back up on top of thangs
Repeating the message that they are still dominant and successful

Smoke some with your dog, no stress, no seeds, no stems, no sticks!
Encouraging people to relax and enjoy life's simple pleasures

Some of that real sticky icky icky, ooh wee!
Referencing marijuana and its sensory effects

Put it in the air, oh, you's a fool DR
Encouraging people to experience life's pleasures with them
