try something like this

package views;

import android.content.Context;
import android.content.res.Resources;
import android.graphics.Bitmap;
import android.graphics.BitmapFactory;
import android.graphics.Canvas;
import android.graphics.Paint;
import android.graphics.Rect;
import android.util.AttributeSet;
import android.widget.TextView;

import com.upsilon.docta.R;


public class MyTempView extends TextView {
    public MyTempView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
        super(context, attrs);
    }
public MyTempView(Context context) {
    super(context);
}

@Override
protected void onDraw(Canvas canvas) {
    //ContextCompat.getColor(mContext, R.color.back_text_color)
    Paint textPaint = getPaint();
    Rect bounds = new Rect();
    textPaint.getTextBounds(getText().toString(), 0, getText().length(), bounds);
    int textWidth = bounds.width();
    Resources res = getResources();
    Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(res, R.drawable.ic_close);
    canvas.drawBitmap(bitmap, 0, getHeight() / 2 - bitmap.getHeight() / 2, textPaint);
    canvas.translate(bitmap.getWidth(), 0);
    super.onDraw(canvas);
}
}
