[Intro – Upright bass walk, brush drums, piano hits] Oh yeah… Still smooth… still sharp… Still Dre and Snoop in the mix… Guess who’s back? Mmm… check it… 🎺 VERSE 1 (Cool, laid-back swing) It’s still Dre Day, baby, smooth like that, I’ve grown a lot, but I still bounce back. When I roll through the spots where they know my name, You hear that groove from the ride when I hit the lane. Ladies show respect, haters say I fell off, How so? My last joint was The Chronic—come on. They ask if I still got it, if the game done changed, If you don’t know by now, let me set it straight. Dr. Dre is the name, still ahead of the game, Still puffing on the leaf, still loving the flames. Still rockin’ my style with the cuff and the crease, Still got love for the streets—213. Still the beats swing, still doing my thing, Since I left, ain’t too much changed… still. 🎷 CHORUS (Big Band Hits / Soulful Hook) 🎶 I’m representing for the players all across the globe, (Still) cruising every corner in them low riders slow. Still taking my time when I’m crafting the beat, And I still got love for the streets—It's the D-R-E. 🎶 (Repeat with harmonies) 🎹 VERSE 2 (Jazz storytelling, smooth authority) Since the last time you heard from me, I lost some friends, But me and Snoop back ridin’ again. Kept my ear to the pavement, found Eminem, Triple platinum, fifty a week—let it begin. Still stay close to the heat when the nights get deep, Even when I fell down, still rose to my feet. My life’s like a soundtrack—written to the groove, Treat the game like Cali smoke, I play ‘til I snooze. Wake at dawn just to build that beat, Bring the fire ‘til you’re sunk in your seat. Not a fluke, I’m the truth, yeah I been that dude, Since the Wreckin’ Cru days—I paid my dues. Still at it… after-mathematics, In the land of drive-bys and automatics. Swap meets, palm trees, traffic jams and heat, I slide through and I give you… still D-R-E. 🎷 CHORUS (Bigger, with horns + backing vocals) 🥂 VERSE 3 (Elegant flex / Sinatra swagger) Ain’t nothin’ but another classic you can vibe with, On the porch, in the ride, let the track just hit. Play it laid back in the shack, we relax, I’m still representing real ones from front to back. Break your neck with the groove, put your soul in the lap, They try to take the crown, but the ace is back. If you still don’t know what Dre brings, Understand—I’m still running the swing. Still wrapped tight like a mummy, see, Still love to watch young kings get money. Take ‘em out the hood, help their moms get free, Give my boys some jobs—no more hustlin’ the streets. Barbecues every day, fancy cars in the driveway, Still gonna get mine… always. 🎷 CHORUS (Final – full band, soulful, triumphant) 🎶 I’m representing for the players all across the globe, (Still) cruising every corner in them low riders slow. Still taking my time when I’m crafting the beat, And I still got love for the streets—It's the D-R-E. 🎶 (Repeat, ad-libs, horn stabs, piano riff) 🎹 OUTRO (Fade with jazz improv + spoken swagger) Right back in your atmosphere… Nine-five plus four pennies… do the math… D.R.E. on top of things… Light one up… no stress, no seeds… Just that smooth sticky rhythm… Ooh wee… put it in the air… Ha-ha… still Dre.
