Here We Go Again
Dr. Dre feat. The Game Lyrics

Yo, Yo, Here we go
Starting off strong, let's get to it

Spitting these rhymes cuz its all I know
Rapping is my life, it's all I do

A little disjointed like my flow
My rapping style is unique and not the norm

Out of sync with the static snow
My rapping is like a TV signal with interference

Ten degrees south where the rabbit ears go
Trying to find a better signal or connection

I told my sister hold em so
Asking for help to get a better signal

Find the signal from years ago
Trying to reconnect with the past

Where we're headed I don't know
Uncertainty about the future

There's little to say cuz I'm not ok
I don't have much to say because I'm struggling

I feel like shit like every day
I'm not feeling good, every day is a struggle

Life is pain that don't go away
Suffering is a constant in life

Try to stay sane just one more day
Fighting to keep my sanity for a little longer

If the booze don't get me, the darkness will
The alcohol and feeling of darkness are overwhelming

Suicide thoughts like guns and pills
Thinking about suicide is like having a loaded weapon

Drunk in the bath giving all I got
Trying to escape the pain with alcohol in the bathtub

Slide under water with the toaster hot
Consideration of ending everything by electrocution

Get a nice shock that wake me up
Awareness of how dangerous that thought was

Then back to the bar to drain my cup
Going back to alcohol to numb the pain

Nothing to do at 2 am
Feeling lost in the middle of the night

The bottle there my only friend
Alcohol is the only companion during these times

Play this song until the end
Using music as a coping mechanism

The tape deck clicks then starts again
Repeating this song over and over as comfort

The tape is faded so play it slow
The song is worn out, but still holding onto its meaning

Wind the reel to make it tight
Trying to preserve something that's falling apart

But there's no switch to set things right
Struggling with how to fix things

Tape goes forward, Tape goes back
Life moves forward and backwards, repeating patterns

It seems sometimes it jumped its track
Frustration with life's unexpected deviations

Cut out the bad, Glue what's nice
Trying to remove the negativity and hold onto the positivity

The rots still there beneath the splice
The negativity still lingers despite efforts to remove it

Some have seen the end of life
Death is a reality for many

And then returned to do it twice
Some people come back from near death experiences

If you're lucky, you die first
Sometimes death is a better option than living through pain

Before your children meet the earth
Preventing your children from experiencing the same pain

But if your luck marks you cursed
If you're unlucky, you suffer even more

You see your children suffer worse
Watching loved ones suffer is unbearable

Signal noise turned up loud
Distractions and negativity are overwhelming

Too distorted to hear a sound
Can't focus on anything due to overwhelming distractions

Copper wire. Ohms per pound
Thoughts about electronics as a metaphor for life

To catch the charge under ground
Trying to find the root cause of the problems

Lean in close and listen hard
Trying to focus and understand despite the noise

Hear the screams of a dying god
Feeling like the world is ending, nothing is going right

It's not right that we suffer so
Feeling like life is unfair and full of pain

And all our friends are made to go
Feeling alone and isolated due to loss and suffering
