Doctors Orders Lyrics by Erykah Officer

Ery’s Diary

2022

[Intro]
Ta-da-da, ta-da-la-da
Dum-da-da, dum-da-da
[Verse 1]
I'm not well
Got me up all through the night (Mm)
Feeling ill
I'm tossin', turnin' (Tossin', turnin', tossin', turnin')
Really didn't care 'bout the side effects
But it's catching up to me
I got so addicted to the high of you
I became numb to the downfall
I'm living for you (Living for you)
Now I'm not well (Not well, not well)
[Chorus]
Doctor's orders
Need to focus on me
On what's important
My prescriptions is
Working on my purpose
And the diagnosis
Is being sick of you
I'm sick of you, sick of you
[Verse 2]
Symptoms giving me chills
Like I need pills to wean off of you
Heartache and body pains
Driving me insane by the thought of losing you
You had me on lockdown
Trapped in your recycled spells
Need to reset and set myself free
Holistically
[Chorus]
Doctor's orders
Need to focus on mе
On what's important
My prescriptions is
Working on my purpose (Working on me)
And thе diagnosis (Woah, oh-oh)
Is being sick of you (Sick of you)
I'm sick of you, sick of you
[Outro]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, mm-mm
Doctor's orders
Gotta take my doctor's orders
'Cause it's time to let you go, let you go
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Said that I need you gone, I gotta let you go
Ooh
'Cause I'm not well
