Dr. Ledge

YLG's Notes
This is a rap I started writing a year or 2 ago and so, I list the original, so I started from scratch and finished. This rap was inspiredly written based of Lil Wayne's song " Dr. Carter " from Tha Carter 3. The meaning if this poetic rap is a metaphorical rap about Hip Hop. How Hip Hop died and why it is Dead. I metaphorically wrote it as me a rapper being a doctor, and my patient being Hip Hop. This is about how I'll try to save the rap game and bring Hip Hop back.
Hope talk enjoyed !
( Intro ) :
( Nurse ): " Dr. Ledge ! Dr. Ledge !, we have an emergency "
( Dr. Ledge ): " excuse me, hold on... yes nurse "
( Nurse ): " Dr. ledge ! It's an emergency, we have a patient "
( Dr. Ledge ): " Alright, OK, please send the patient in "
( Nurse ): " Yes Dr., .........., here's the patient Dr. "
( Dr. Ledge ): " agh fuck, shit, ... Damn...."
( Nurse ): " Dr. ledge, are you alright, Dr. !
Dr. ledge! Dr. ledge ! "
( Dr. Ledge ): " huh, yeah "
( Nurse): " Dr., is there something wrong, Dr. "
( Dr. Ledge): " Oh sorry, yes, I know this patient, it's family,
nurse what happened, tell me what is wrong "
( Nurse): " Well Dr., the patient seems to be paralyzed from the waist down,
Our patient is very septic, the patient may die witching minutes "
( Dr. Ledge ): " Hurry nurse, bring the patient in the emergency room now, quick
I think I can save the patient "
( Nurse ): " Right away Dr., ...........ok, excuse me Dr., need any assistance "
( Dr. ledge ): No, thank you...excuse my nurse I need you to leave so I can work on the patient "
( Nurse ): " Yes Dr.,... Take your time.... "
( Dr.Ledge ): " Hey it's gonna be ok fam, I will do everything I can to save you fam,
I don't know if you can hear me, I need you stay with me fam, I'll save you "
( Verse 1 ) :
Hey I'm Dr. ledge, and I have just received a patient
Who happens to be family, my mind's rushing, heart's racing, I'm loosing my patience
On life support near death, I'm panicking and this is very frustrating
This is family, my emotions are running high and I am hesitating
My patient is very septic, I am praying while meditating
And I feel really skeptic, because this is fam, keeping me from concentrating
Possibly going into a coma, and is already unconscious
I can't stomach the thought if losing my fam to me, having that on my conscious
I'm being cautious while saying encouraging words to my patient, even tho unresponsive
I wouldn't get fired, I would just quit my job and become jobless
We gotta have hope, if my patient dies, I wouldn't know how to explain or know what to say,
To our family, in my heart, I'm gonna be the one whose life I'll save
But hope seems to be running out, you can foresight death on the face,
Of my patient, has been going through a lot in life, such a disgrace
Someone I've been close with, even before I was born, back to date
Someone who influenced and inspired me, someone I'm part of but I don't obligate,
My patient's condition, I'm just reminiscing my patient's life as of now,
While I'm letting the machines operate
( Verse 2 ) :
My patient is about to be 40, born in 79, who was normal like all ordinary babies
had all 5 senses, could talk, and could move around, in the 80s
could flex, jump, and was full filled with energy, but later things got crazy
suffered from a hard fall at one time, hurting the joints, and the previous docs were lazy
happened in the early 90s, but fortunately, would make a full recovery soon
the past docs knew how to wrap, and apply pressure to the wound
if those docs never wrapped and put pressure on the wound, my patient would've been in doom
can still get around, but it was only a matter of time before no longer being able to move
in the mid 90s, was in service, being involved in the middle of a coastal war fight
shots were taken through my patient, almost costed my patient's life
suffering from disabled hips, both the left as well as the right
lost 2 soldiers in 96 and 97, who died, along with my patient inside
since then, is suffering from permanent damage in the hips, joints, and waist
such a tragedy and shame, that so many lives had gone to waste
and so early, but my patient was the only survivor to make it out in those days
but the dead soldiers and vets still live within, just having to embrace
( Verse 3 ) :
What's happening now, my patient is holding on and still alive
miraculously still living, was not expected to live this long, yet survive
in the 2000s, docs helped long enough for my patient to recover after the revive
but in the 2010s my patient got trapped, and my patient's hip popped out
went from hopping to handicapped, since 2011, my patient was rocked out
my patient would officially shutdown, all movements would stop now
eyes closed shut and no longer functioning, half dead and knocked out
brought back to life in 2012, but still was not able
was asleep long before awakened, but in bad condition, still disabled
was on the plug in 2015 still, soon ready to be labeled
in 2016, the docs said only 2 years left to live, my patient was no longer able,
to make it out this time, man, life is really a bitch
now my patient is officially dying slowly, i can no longer hold in this shit
but i have or had the things to bring my patient back to life,
but i'm afraid i'm years too late, i would've gave up my life for his
( Verse 4 ) :
I'm awakened back to reality, as soon I hear the monitor beeping
I check my patience pulse, not breathing but the heart is beating
Out of now where, I can hear my patient start to utter
Then my patient starts shaking in the bed, making all this noisy clutter
Eyes are blinking out, then would start to stutter
I think he is back, man, oh brother
But it was just a seizure, my patient is now seconds away from dying
I couldn't revive so I pulled the plug, my patient died crying
His life had officially came to an end this time, over, I was just realizing
My patient left, but left a part of him in me, it was perfect timing
And then I started crying, my tears would fall and drip drop
Tired of all the suffering, at last, at least finally tis shit stopped
My my patient's time was up, the energy from his soul and mine would flip flop
Hip Hop is is officially dead, still within me , I am now Hip Hop
( Nurse ): " Dr. Ledge, how is our patient doing "
( Dr.Ledge ): " I lost em, .....my patient is gone, he is dead "
( Nurse ): " Oh my, I am so sorry Dr. "
( Dr. Ledge ): " Don't be sorry for me, feel sorry for the patient's family, our family "
( Nurse ): " It's not your fault Dr. ledge, you did everything you could do
I will make the phone call to the patient's family "
( Dr. ledge ): " thank you, nurse "
I'll now pull the sheet back, as my patient will R.I.P.
Our hearts torn apart as we'll mourn, everything now depends on me
Hip hop is officially dead, rest in peace, but it still lives within me
