  • Don't let me find out, the bitch in you
    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
    Go fuck yourself
    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
