Lose Yourself

Look, if you had, one shot, or one opportunity 
To seize everything you ever wanted. In one moment Would you 
capture it, or just let it slip? Yo His palms are sweaty, knees weak, 
arms are heavy There's vomit on his sweater already, Mom's Spaghetti He's 
nervous, but on the surface he looks calm and ready to drop bombs, But he keeps
on forgetting what he wrote down,The whole crowd goes so loud He opens his mouth
 but the words won't come out, He's choking how, everybody's joking now The clock's run out,
time's up, over, blaow! Snap back to reality. Oh, there goes gravity Oh, there goes Rabbit, he
choked He's so mad, but he won't give up that Easy, no He won't have it, he knows his whole
back's to these ropes It don't                                        matter, he's dope He knows
that but he's broke He's so                                           sad that he knows When he 
goes back to his mobile home,                                        that's when it's Back to 
the lab again, yo This whole                                        rhapsody He better go capture
this moment and hope it don't                                        pass him [Hook:]You better
lose yourself in the music,                                            the moment You own it, you
better never let it go (go)                                           You only get one shot,
 do not miss your chance to                                          blow This opportunity comes
once in a lifetime (yo)You                                           better lose yourself in
the music, the moment You                                            own it, you better never let
it go (go) You only get one shot,                                    do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in                                        a lifetime (yo)(You better)
The soul's escaping, through                                          this hole that is gaping 
This world is mine for the taking                                     Make me king, as we move
toward a new world order A normal                                     life is boring, but 
superstardom's close to postm It only grows harder, homie grows hotter He blows. It's all over.
These hoes is all on him Coast to coast shows, he's known as the globetrotter Lonely roads, 
God only knows He's grown farther from home, he's no father He goes home and
barely knows his own daughter But hold your nose 
'cause here goes the cold water
His hoes don't want him no more, he's cold product
They moved on to the next schmoe who flows He nose dove and sold nada
So the soap opera is told and unfoldsI suppose it's old partner, but the beat goes on
Da da dum da dum da da da da [Hook]No more games, I'mma change what you call rage Tear this motherfucking roof off like two dogs caged I was playing in the beginning, the mood all changed I've been chewed up and spit out and booed off stage But I kept rhyming and stepped right into the next cypher Best believe somebody's paying the Pied Piper All the pain inside amplified by the Fact that I can't get by with my 9 to 5 And I can't provide the right type of life for my family 'Cause man, these goddamn food stamps don't buy diapers And it's no movie, there's no Mekhi Phifer, this is my life And these times are so hard, and it's getting even harder Trying to feed and water my seed, plus Teeter totter caught up between being a father and a primadonna Baby, mama drama's screaming on her Too much for me to wanna Stay in one spot, another day of monotony's gotten me To the point, I'm like a snail I've got to formulate a plot or I end up in jail or shot Success is my only motherfucking option, failure's not Mom, I love you, but this trailer's got to go I cannot grow old in Salem's lot So here I go it's my shot. Feet, fail me notThis may be the only opportunity that I got [Hook] You can do anything you set your mind to, man
