[Intro: Dr. Dre]
~#**************#~
Family problems, it aint easy handling those needs
~#**************#~
(Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do)
~#**************#~
Baby mama drama, I just need a little time to go to sleep
~#**************#~
(Damn, only if I had a little time for me)
~#**************#~
Record company motherfuckers asking me when Im gonna release
~#**************#~
(Im under pressure homie, so much pressure on me)
~#**************#~
And my homies on my back
~#**************#~
About me helping them get up off them streets
~#**************#~
(I mean what the fuck?)
~#**************#~
[Hook: Justus & (BJ The Chicago Kid)]
~#**************#~
And it all falls back on me
~#**************#~
(I said it all falls down)
~#**************#~
Sometimes, somehow, it all falls back on me
~#**************#~
(Somehow it always fall back on me)
~#**************#~
No matter where we are, no matter what we doing, its on me
~#**************#~
(No matter where we are its on me)
~#**************#~
If it was up to you thats just the way its always gon be
~#**************#~
(Listen to me)
~#**************#~
[Verse 1: Dr. Dre]
~#**************#~
Its kind of funny how they fall back on me
~#**************#~
I used to never get a call back, homie
~#**************#~
Before the money they didnt see me
~#**************#~
Like its dark and its all black, homie
~#**************#~
But now they switching cause the card black, homie
~#**************#~
It wasnt always that way, we was recording on the 4-track, homie
~#**************#~
New apartment, no fridge, no mattress, no table, no cable
~#**************#~
And all I hear is my girl in my ear
~#**************#~
And this nigga Eazy asking for his car back, homie
~#**************#~
I wouldve never saw this happening from that far back, homie
~#**************#~
What it came to be, would have never believed
~#**************#~
Living the life I lived in C-P-T
~#**************#~
A motherfucking dream to reality is what you call that, homie
~#**************#~
Yeah, it was something to me
~#**************#~
No eat, no sleep, wasnt nothing to me
~#**************#~
Cant always be how you want it to be
~#**************#~
And Im the one that they looking up to
~#**************#~
Fuck they expecting from me?
~#**************#~

[Verse 2: Dr. Dre]
~#**************#~
Thats just the way it is, and how it always was
~#**************#~
DJing parties in my neighborhood just for the love
~#**************#~
Dope dealers overtipping and bitches stripping
~#**************#~
And any minute niggasll start tripping and start shooting shit
~#**************#~
On any given day Im like “what the fuck?”
~#**************#~
Face down on the pavement with the billy clubs
~#**************#~
Took that feeling to the studio and cued it up
~#**************#~
And now its “Fuck the Police” all up in the club
~#**************#~
Now its 91 and Snoop Dogg came to visit and was like
~#**************#~
“What up cuz? Let me show you what this chronic like”
~#**************#~
Couldnt help myself, just had to dip into that chronic life
~#**************#~
And then that night came in when that nigga Knight came in
~#**************#~
(Woo!) This one of those dreams you dont wake up from
~#**************#~
Then again, you dont sleep if you come from where I come from
~#**************#~
Where the sun shines and they bust nines, no 9 plus 1-1
~#**************#~
When they run up on your school bus with a tool tucked
~#**************#~
You might learn something
~#**************#~
