Dr.Nexus Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Don't let me find out, the snitch in you
Fame and fortune
It's not your forte
Fuck the world now
I'm done with foreplay
Doctor's orders
Take two a day
Set them on an overdose
And kill yourself
Doctor's orders
Listen, this is my evaluation
This shit over saturated, y'all can get evacuated
Kids sipping Actavis and they ain't even activated
Married to the internet, stuck in place, salivating
Ain't nobody graduating
Don't nobody love this shit the way I love it
That's why I gotta hate it
Everybody out for fame, that ain't no exaggeration
Damn I'm getting aggravated, fuck, I'm getting agitated
Teachers so underpaid in these fucking schools
The police got our name in all they databases
Girls be thirteen acting twenty-two
Niggas be forty-four acting half they ages
Somebody tell me, what the fuck is going on?
These niggas in tight shit, I'm in the fucking Matrix
It's looking like a sign of the revelation
'Bout time of the return of the fuckin' greatest
I got all these patients man, how come they ain't patient with me?
They just think I want the money, why?
When I can't take it with me
Y'all don't do it for the love, for the love not
They gon' find out who you are, just admit 'fore you get admitted
Say, what you living about
Fuck you gon' tell me
Do you remember how you started out though
You looking lost now
(You want a pass, oh damn)
Fake it 'til you make it
Take your little paper book
When you look in the mirror your credibility's gone now
I'd rather be hated on for who I am
Than to be loved for who I'm not
That's word to doc
Fame and fortune
It's not your forte
Fuck the world now
I'm done with foreplay
Doctor's orders
Go fuck yourself
Take two a day
Set them on an overdose
And kill yourself
In the beginning a few of the people who had a problem
I was this good, scoffed, I just shook off
Probably reminded you of the first time you saw Tiger Woods golf
Never thought about how much my race and nationality meant
But based on how I ascended, see how plain it was now, they want me to jet
No one really gave a fuck about my descent, 'till I took off
Mistook me because I look soft
But I stood tall, I just follow the (Doctor's orders)
So I rose and grew balls, told these hoes to screw off
Decided opposing you is what I'm 'posed to do alls
I did was say what I'm feeling when the vocal booth calls
And had you on pins and needles when I spoke to you all
You felt my pain, it's almost like I poked voodoo dolls
And I hope my spirit haunts the studios when I'm gone
My picture jumps off a poster and just floats through the halls
And fucking goes through the walls like the ghost of Lou Rawls
Karma's headed for Armageddon, the drama setter
I'm going in, already got an arm and head
And whoever said word are just words
Can't hurt me more than I give a fuck
Even if my image ends up taking a personal hit
Whoever I hurt or whatever bridges I burned
In this bitch and whatever bitches feel like
They didn't deserve what they get
And whatever consequences come with every verse, it's worth it
So Doc turn the beat on, whose turn is it to get murdered on it?
And here's to all the years I spent toeing a line to overtime
As sure as I'm always lying, in my mind
I'm still underground as a groundhog and I'mma go for mine
Like a whole furrow just tryna dig up some gold and diamonds and coal to find
I'm starting to slow and these lines are my nines
I just load up the most rhymes and open fire with a closed mind
All I needed was someone to co-sign, been a (Doctor's)
Assault rifle with the sniper scope for this whole time
Day one, set with the blasters, give me the orders, I spray uh
Pain in the ass and get shot in the ass with a paint gun
Ain't no one safe from, non-believers there ain't none
I even make the bitches I rape cum
I'm waiting on someone to say something
Dre make the bass pump and let the tape run for old time's sake
I spit it straight through, this is take one
The moment you're waiting for has come but
Fame and fortune
It's not your forte
Fuck the world now
I'm done with foreplay
Doctor's orders
Go fuck yourself
Take two a day
Set them on an overdose
And kill yourself
Doctor's orders
The lyrics of Dr. Nexus's "Medicine" seem to have a central theme of rebellion and frustration with the current state of society, the music industry, and even the education system. The chorus is a clear message of defiance, with the singer saying "Don't let me find out, the bitch in you/ Don't let me find out, the snitch in you." Here, he's declaring that he doesn't want anyone to try and undermine his work or tattle on his rebellious tendencies. The first verse deals with these themes as well, with the singer expressing his discontent with the focus on fame and fortune, and the general state of the world. He encourages listeners to "Take two a day/ Set them on an overdose/ And kill yourself/ Doctor's orders," seemingly promoting self-destruction as a way to rebel against a world that promotes shallow values and rewards.
The second half of the song sees the singer addressing his critics and doubters, talking about his rise to fame and his various struggles along the way. He praises himself for staying true to his own values, and for speaking his mind even when it was difficult. He seems to take pleasure in defying expectations, saying "Ain't no one safe from/ Non-believers there ain't none/ I even make the bitches I rape cum." Though the lyrics are often confrontational and aggressive, there's still a sense of vulnerability and pain throughout the song. The chorus, with its repeated refrain of "Doctor's orders," could be seen as a plea for help, or a declaration of dependence on something (perhaps music) that makes life bearable.

Do you remember how you started out though You looking lost now
(You want a pass, oh damn)

Fake it 'til you make it
Take your little paper book
When you look in the mirror your credibility's gone now
Pretend to be successful until you actually achieve success. Carry your insignificant achievements with you, but when you examine yourself in the mirror, your credibility is nonexistent
I'd rather be hated on for who I am
Than to be loved for who I'm not
That's word to doc
I prefer to be disliked or criticized for my authentic self, rather than being loved or praised for pretending to be someone I'm not. This is a solemn declaration
In the beginning a few of the people who had a problem
I was this good, scoffed, I just shook off
Probably reminded you of the first time you saw Tiger Woods golf
Initially, a few individuals doubted or disapproved of me. However, I brushed off their negativity and perhaps my talent reminded them of the initial brilliance of Tiger Woods in golf
Never thought about how much my race and nationality meant
But based on how I ascended, see how plain it was now, they want me to jet
I never considered the significance of my race and nationality, but now it's evident how it influenced my rise or success. Now, they want me to leave or depart
No one really gave a fuck about my descent, 'till I took off
Mistook me because I look soft
But I stood tall, I just follow the (Doctor's orders)
People didn't care about my journey or background until I achieved great success. They misjudged me because of my appearance, assuming I was weak. However, I remained strong and obedient to the advice of authoritative figures
So I rose and grew balls, told these hoes to screw off
Decided opposing you is what I'm 'posed to do all
I gained confidence and stood up for myself, rejecting those who doubted me. I made a firm decision to oppose you, as that is my purpose
Alls I did was say what I'm feeling when the vocal booth calls
And had you on pins and needles when I spoke to you all
You felt my pain, it's almost like I poked voodoo dolls
All I did was express my true emotions and thoughts when I entered the recording booth. My words had a powerful impact on you, leaving you anxious or uneasy. It seemed as though I was manipulating and affecting you as if I had control over voodoo dolls
And I hope my spirit haunts the studios when I'm gone
My picture jumps off a poster and just floats through the halls
And fucking goes through the walls like the ghost of Lou Rawls
I desire for my presence to linger in the recording studios even after I'm no longer alive. I envision my image coming to life, detaching from a poster, and effortlessly moving through the corridors. This image passes through walls, resembling the ghostly presence of Lou Rawls
Karma's headed for Armageddon, the drama setter
I'm going in, already got an arm and head
And whoever said word are just words
Can't hurt me more than I give a fuck
Karma is approaching a catastrophic event, and I am at the center of the drama. I am fully invested and prepared for any challenges. Those who claim that words are merely words cannot inflict more harm on me than I already disregard or care about
Even if my image ends up taking a personal hit
Whoever I hurt or whatever bridges I burned
In this bitch and whatever bitches feel like
They didn't deserve what they get
Even if my public image suffers or is negatively impacted, I remain indifferent. Regardless of who I may have harmed or the relationships I have damaged, I consider myself superior within this industry. I believe that the women who claim they didn't deserve their treatment are incorrect
And whatever consequences come with every verse, it's worth it
So Doc turn the beat on, whose turn is it to get murdered on it?
I am willing to face any consequences that arise from my lyrics, as I consider it a worthy trade-off. So, Dr. Dre, start the instrumental, whose turn is it to face the wrath of my lyrical abilities?
And here's to all the years I spent toeing a line to overtime
As sure as I'm always lying, in my mind
I'm still underground as a groundhog and I'mma go for mine
Cheers to all the years I devoted myself to working beyond the standard hours, as certain as I am always being dishonest, in my mind I am still an underground artist like a groundhog, and I will strive for personal success
Like a whole furrow just tryna dig up some gold and diamonds and coal to find
I'm starting to slow and these lines are my nines
I just load up the most rhymes and open fire with a closed mind
Similar to a whole field dedicated to unearthing valuable minerals like gold, diamonds, and coal, I am diligently searching for my own treasures. However, I am becoming slower and my lines (lyrics) are my weapons. I prepare the most complex and abundant rhymes and deliver them with unwavering confidence and determination
All I needed was someone to co-sign, been a (Doctor's)
Assault rifle with the sniper scope for this whole time
All I required was someone to endorse or validate my talent and abilities. I have functioned as a powerful weapon, similar to an assault rifle equipped with a precision sight, throughout this entire journey
Day one, set with the blasters, give me the orders, I spray uh
Pain in the ass and get shot in the ass with a paint gun
Ain't no one safe from, non-believers there ain't none
I even make the bitches I rape cum
I'm waiting on someone to say something
From the beginning, I have been armed with powerful weapons, waiting for instructions to open fire. I am a troublesome nuisance, and those who oppose me will suffer consequences, including being shot with a paintball gun. Nobody is protected from my wrath, as there are no non-believers. I even possess the ability to elicit pleasure from the women I sexually assault. I am eagerly awaiting for anyone to dare to speak up or challenge me
Dre make the bass pump and let the tape run for old time's sake
I spit it straight through, this is take one
The moment you're waiting for has come but
Dr. Dre, increase the intensity of the bass, and allow the recording to commence for nostalgic reasons. I deliver my lyrics effortlessly and flawlessly, as this is the first take. The moment you have been eagerly anticipating has arrived, however,
Fame and fortune
It's not your forte
Becoming famous and wealthy is not your natural talent or skill
Fuck the world now
I'm done with foreplay
I have grown tired of playing games with the world, it's time to be straightforward and assertive
Doctor's orders
Go fuck yourself
As an authority figure, I am instructing you to engage in self-destructive behavior
Take two a day
Set them on an overdose
And kill yourself
Take two doses of medication daily with the intention of overdosing and ending your own life
Doctor's orders
These are the instructions or prescriptions provided by a doctor
