Dr. Dre - 12 Steps to Recovery

Copied!

{Intro}
Break out your fuckin' swishas
Light up your fuckin' weed
I'd like to introduce you all to The Chronic III
It's D R period Dre motherfucka
Back to set the record straight for motherfuckers

{Verse 1}
I gotta be the number one supplier
I keep you higher than Richard Pryor
I been the dope man since '86 ('86)
From a nigga with a attitude to a nigga that's fuckin' rich
I'm feeling better than I've ever been
A lot stronger, plus I got a bet I win (bet I win)
I'm takin' all bets, fuck it I'm all in
And when I'm finished with this business I will be number
(one, one, one)
Started out on the turn tables, but look how the tables turned
You can't imagine what my label earned
I gross more in a year than most niggas make in their whole career
I'm only here (two, two, two) make sure I shake up your rear view
And you niggas could not see me with a clear view
If I was you I'd probably hate me too
'Cause yeah you got a budget but you can't fit Dre in it
It's (three) album solo, the Aftermath logo
Platinum plus 'cause I don't go gold, you know
My stats, ain't got enough wall for all my plaques
Niggas actin' like I wasn't comin' back
(Four) more, I'm too in love with this shit, plus I came too far to quit
And it was in nine (five) I got sick of niggas trippin' and shit
So I started building my label, sometime in 9 (six)
Adjust the levels on my mic so it's loud and clear (testin')
This is something that I want the whole world to hear (world to hear)
(Seven) I'm tired of niggas blamin' sales on the industry
The music ain't shit, and personally it's offendin' me

{Chorus}
Twelve steps to recovery

{Verse 2}
Fuckin' with the D-R, find yourself an E-R
Need C-P-R, do you know who we are?
Love cognac and cigars, so high I don't see y'all
On a whole 'nother level, that's why I couldn't be y'all
(Eight) straight summers they've been patiently waitin'
And I-, I'd like to thank you all for being patient
I-, I'd like to shout out all the critics for hatin'
'Cause you've only been the fuel for my motivation
(Nine) you cat's lives is limited
While I got black cards for all of my businesses
And there's (ten) million reasons why you can't fuck with Detox
And I'm the biggest influence in hip-hop
(Eleven) I can't stop (can't stop), look what I started (thanks to hip-hop)
I get the most pay, because I work the hardest
(Twelve) "Should've been Number 1 to me"
It's hard work to you, but it's fun for me

{Chorus}
Twelve steps to recovery

edit bio

Born Andre Romelle Young in Compton, California on February 18, 1965, Dr. Dre is a legendary Grammy Award-winning rapper, producer, and mogul who has had a major impact on the hip-hop industry. He started his music career as a club and radio DJ before joining the group World Class Wreckin Cru in 1984. Dre then went on to form the pioneering gangsta rap group N.W.A with Ice Cube, Eazy-E, MC Ren, and Arabian Prince, releasing the influential album Straight Outta Compton in 1988.

After the breakup of N.W.A, Dre co-founded Death Row Records with The D.O.C. and Suge Knight, releasing his solo debut album The Chronic in 1992. The album helped popularize the G-Funk sound and solidified Dre's reputation as one of the greatest producers in hip-hop. In 1996, Dre left Death Row due to disagreements with Suge Knight and went on to establish Aftermath Entertainment.

Under Aftermath, Dre released his critically acclaimed album 2001 in 1999, which featured hits like "Still D.R.E." and "Forgot About Dre." He also helped launch the careers of artists like Eminem, 50 Cent, The Game, and Kendrick Lamar, producing hit albums for each of them. Dre's production work earned him a Grammy Award for Producer of the Year, Non-Classical in 2002.

In addition to his music career, Dre has also ventured into acting, appearing in films like Set It Off and Training Day. He also starred alongside Snoop Dogg in the movie The Wash. Dre's entrepreneurial spirit led him to establish his highly successful Beats by Dr. Dre brand of headphones in 2008. The brand was later purchased by Apple for $3 billion in 2014.

Dr. Dre continues to be a major figure in the music industry, hosting a show on Apple Music Beats 1 called The Pharmacy and releasing his third album Compton in 2015. That same year, the N.W.A biopic Straight Outta Compton was released, grossing over $200 million at the box office. In 2016, Dre was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame as a member of N.W.A, solidifying his legacy as one of the greatest hip-hop producers of all-time.
