Eminem – I Need A Doctor lyrics
[Chorus]Skylar Grey
I'm about to lose my mind
You've been gone for so long
I'm running out of time
I need a doctor
Call me a doctor
I need a doctor, doctor
To bring me back to life

[Verse]Eminem
I told the World one day I would pay it back
Say it on tape, and lay, record it
So that one day I could play it back
But I don't even know if I believe it when I'm saying that
Doubt start to creep in, everyday it's just so grey and black
Hope I just need a ray of that
Cause no one sees my vision when I play it for em
They just say it's whack
They don't know what dope is
And I don't know if I was awake or asleep
When I wrote this
All I know is you come to when I was at my lowest
You picked me up, breathing life in me
I owe my life to you
But for the life of me, I don't see why you don't see like I do
But it just dawned on me you lost a son
See this light in you, it's dark
Let me turn on the lights and brighten me and enlighten you
I don't think you realize what you mean to
Not the slightest clue
Cause me and you were like a crew
I was like your sidekick
You gone either wanna fight me when I get off this fucking mic
Or you gone hug me
But I'm out of options, there's nothing else I can do coz...

[Chorus:] Skylar Grey
I'm about to lose my mind
You've been gone for so long
I'm running out of time
I need a doctor
Call me a doctor
I need a doctor, doctor,
To bring me back to life

[Verse] Eminem
It hurts when I see you struggle
You come to me with ideas
You say there pieces so I'm puzzled
Cause the shit I hear is crazy
But your either getting lazy or you don't believe in you no more
Seems like your own opinions not one you can form
Can't make a decision you keep questioning yourself
Second guessing and it's almost like you're begging for my help
Like I'm your leader
You're supposed to fucking be my mentor
I can endure no more,
I demand you remember who you are
It was you, who believed in me
When everyone was telling you don't sign me
Everyone at the fucking label, let's tell the truth
You risked your career for me
I know it as well as you
Nobody wanted to fuck with a white boy
Dre I'm crying in this booth
You saved my life now maybe it's my turn to save yours
But I can never repay you what you did for me is way more
But I ain't giving up faith
And you ain't giving up on me
Get up Dre, I'm dying, I need you, come back for fuck's sake

[Chorus:] Skylar Grey
I'm about to lose my mind
You've been gone for so long
I'm running out of time
I need a doctor
Call me a doctor
I need a doctor, doctor
To bring me back to life
Bring me back to life
Bring me back to life


(I need a doctor doctor
To bring me back to life)

[Verse] Dr. Dre
It literally feels like a lifetime ago
But I still remember this shit like it was yesterday though
You walked in, yellow jump suit
Whole room, cracked jokes
One you got inside the booth, told you, like smoke
Went through friends, some of them I put on
But they just left, they said they riding to the death
But where the fuck are they now
Now that I need them I don't see none of them
All I see is Slim
Fuck all you fair-weather friends
All I need is him
Fucking backstabbers
When the chips were down you just laughed at us
Now you bout to feel the fucking wrath of aftermath, faggots
You gon see us in our lab jackets and ask us where the fuck we been?
You can kiss my indecisive ass crack maggots and the crackers ass
Little crack a jack beat making whack math
Backwards producers, I'm back bastards
One more cd and then I'm packing up my bags and as I'm leaving again
I'll guarantee they scream Dre don't leave us like that man cause...

[Chorus:]
I'm about to lose my mind
You've been gone for so long
I'm running out of time
I need a doctor
Call me a doctor
I need a doctor, doctor
To bring me back to life
Bring me back to life
Bring me back to life

    It's about friends who left you. Without them, we're nothing. Like a empty paper. When I paper is full of numbers, letters, whatever, it tells something. When we're out of friends, our life doesn't tell anything. Second meaning is about somebody who we love so much, but they don't show that tehy love us too. Third meaning is the most simply meaning, about dre's life and his only real friends. Just my opinion. :)
