I'm My Own Doctor
Remo Drive Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've been self-diagnosing all of my problems
Carrying all my stress in the jaw
I've got all sorts of health products
Aspirin and robo, and my new skin care wash

It couldn't be excessive caffeine
Dehydration or lack of sleep
I need something real heavy
Woah

I've been banging my head to the beat of trauma
Cynic and bandage by natural law
I've got all sorts of beauty products
Face paint and polish, resistant to the wash

Now I don't trust my Tylenol
To save my ass when I mess up
Now I doubt my neti pot
Could even clear up all my snot
I need to fix myself
Woah

I've been self-diagnosing all of my problems
Carrying all my stress in the jaw
I've got all sorts of beauty products
Face paint and polish, resistant to the wash

Now I don't trust my Tylenol
To save my ass when I mess up
Now I doubt my neti pot
Could even clear up all my snot




I need to fix myself
Woah

Overall Meaning

In the song "I'm My Own Doctor" by Remo Drive, the singer acknowledges that he has been self-diagnosing all of his problems and carrying his stress in his jaw. The lyrics suggest that he has been using various health and beauty products to try to solve his problems, including aspirin, robo, skin care wash, face paint, and polish. Despite these efforts, he realizes that these products are not enough to help him fix his issues. He questions whether his problems could be caused by excessive caffeine, dehydration, or lack of sleep, but concludes that he needs something more substantial and heavy to solve his issues.


The second verse also reveals that the singer has been listening to music to cope with trauma and has been using cynical attitudes and bandages as a way to heal. He then confesses that he no longer trusts his Tylenol to save him when he messes up and doubts that his neti pot can even clear up his snot. He recognizes that he needs to fix himself, but it is unclear how he plans on doing so.


Overall, the song speaks to the idea that self-diagnosis and the use of various products may not always be enough to solve one's problems, and that larger, more meaningful efforts may be needed to truly heal.
