Song lyrics

The long-awaited Detox, trick

'Cause maybe I don't wanna stop, maybe I don't wanna quit

Maybe I like hoes, maybe I don't want a wife, maybe I'm psycho

Maybe I'm crazy, maybe I'm strapped right now, just maybe

Maybe it's a relapse

Maybe I'm high right now; where the weed at?

Maybe this is ER

Maybe I'm a real doc' and this is CPR

Maybe we need to breathe some life in this shit

Maybe we are the life of this shit

Maybe I'm just crazy (Crazy)

What they say? (What they say?) Sak pase (Sak pase)

Nap boulé (nap boulé) Ayyy


Ugh, ah

Dre, I think I need my sponsor


I'm just outta contro-o-ol

Maybe I got hoes, every little city I go, like Paco

We tryna grow, but I just can't seen her

I'm having trouble cleaning up, I'm like FEMA

All these little haters got me back with the Nina

Got me bringing guns to work, Gilbert Arenas

Uh, I don't know if it's the Goose talking

But you know they say the liquor get your truth talking

Maybe I should be somewhere in the group talking

I'm addicted to coupes and taking roofs off 'em

I'm addicted to watches, Heckler and Koches

Them bow-legged girls from the projects

It's Bed-Stuy in this bitch (Bed-Stuy!)

Dre, what's up? (It's Westside over here)

I'm in this party, I'm up to no good

And I should be ducking these clubs, Tiger Woods


I smoke (I smoke), I drink (I drink)

I'm supposed to stop, but I can't

Nigga, don't ask why (Ask why), I get high (I get high)

I'm just living my mo'fucking life

So what? I'm drunk (I'm drunk)

And I'm a weed head (Weed head)

And I'ma treat every day like the weekend

Headfirst off the deep end

Yeah, you know what's happening

I'm just relapsing
