The Lady Gaga 911 song is featured on her sixth album “Chromatica”. Gaga stated about the song, “It’s about an antipsychotic that I take. And it’s because I can’t always control things that my brain does. I know that. And I have to take medication to stop the process that occurs.” The song describes Lady Gaga’s relationship to her antipsychotic medication that she takes (olanzapine).
The music video was directed by Tarsem Singh, and features a surreal dreamscape and a twist ending. The video was inspired by Armenian film director Sergei Parajanov’s 1969 Soviet art film The Color of Pomegranates. The music video was filmed in White Sands national park in New Mexico.
Lady Gaga shared this message on Instagram with the release of the music video/short film.
Lady Gaga shared, “This short film is very personal to me, my experience with mental health and the way reality and dreams can interconnect to form heroes within us and all around us. I’d like to thank my director/filmmaker Tarsem for sharing a 25 year old idea he had with me because my life story spoke so much to him. I’d like to thank Haus of Gaga for being strong for me when I wasn’t, and the crew for making this short film safely during this pandemic without anyone getting sick. It’s been years since I felt so alive in my creativity to make together what we did with “911”. Thank you @Bloodpop for taking a leap of faith with me to produce a record that hides in nothing but the truth. Finally, thank you little monsters. I’m awake now, I can see you, I can feel you, thank you for believing in me when I was very afraid. Something that was once my real life everyday is now a film, a true story that is now the past and not the present. It’s the poetry of pain“.

The “911” lyrics were written by Gaga, Justin Tranter, BloodPop and Madeon.
Turning up emotional faders
Keep repeating self-hating phrases
I have heard enough of these voices
Almost like I have no choice
This is biological stasis
My mood’s shifting to manic places
Wish I loved, and kept the good friendships
Watch life, here I go again
I can’t see me cry
Can’t see me cry, ever again (ooh)
I can’t see me cry
Can’t see me cry this is the end (ooh)
My biggest enemy is me
Pop a 911
My biggest enemy is me
Pop a 911
My biggest enemy is me
Ever since day one
Pop a 911
Then pop another one
Keep my dolls inside diamond boxes
Save them till I know I’m gon’ drop this
Front I’ve built around me, oasis
Paradise is in my hand
Holding on so tight to this status
It’s not real but I’ll try to grab it
Keep myself in beautiful places
Paradise is in my hands
I can’t see me cry
Can’t see me cry ever again (ooh)
I can’t see me cry
Can’t see me cry this is the end (ooh)
My biggest enemy is me
Pop a 911
My biggest enemy is me
Pop a 911
My biggest enemy is me
Ever since day one
Pop a 911
Then pop another one
(Pop another one)
Pop a 911
Then pop another one
I can’t see me cry
Can’t see me cry ever again (ooh)
I can’t see me cry
Can’t see me cry this is the end (ooh)
My biggest enemy is me
Pop a 911
My biggest enemy is me
Pop a 911
My biggest enemy is me
Ever since day one
Pop a 911
Then pop another one

Need a 911, can you patch the line
