Lose Yourself

[00:33.00] Look

[00:36.04] If you had

[00:38.15] One shot

[00:40.05] Or one opportunity

[00:42.43] To seize everything you ever wanted

[00:45.64] In one moment

[00:47.92] Would you capture it

[00:49.83] Or just let it slip?

[00:51.21] Yo

[00:52.57] His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy

[00:55.25] There's vomit on his sweater already, mom's spaghetti

[00:58.18] He's nervous, but on the surface he looks calm and ready

[01:01.10] To drop bombs, but he keeps on forgettin'

[01:04.02] What he wrote down, the whole crowd goes so loud

[01:06.66] He opens his mouth, but the words won't come out

[01:09.59] He's chokin', how, everybody's jokin' now

[01:12.24] The clocks run out, times up, over, blaow

[01:15.16] Snap back to reality, ope there goes gravity

[01:18.09] Ope, there goes Rabbit, he choked

[01:19.99] He's so mad, but he won't give up that easy? No

[01:22.64] He won't have it, he knows his whole back's to these ropes

[01:25.59] It don't matter, he's dope, he knows that, but he's broke

[01:28.52] He's so stagnant, he knows, when he goes back to this mobile home, that's when it's

[01:32.48] Back to the lab again, yo, this whole rhapsody

[01:35.07] Better go capture this moment and hope it don't pass him

[01:37.19] You better lose yourself in the music, the moment

[01:40.38] You own it, you better never let it go

[01:42.78] You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow

[01:45.96] This opportunity comes once in a lifetime

[01:48.36] You better lose yourself in the music, the moment

[01:51.55] You own it, you better never let it go

[01:53.97] You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow

[01:57.16] This opportunity comes once in a lifetime

[01:59.54] You better

[02:00.33] His soul's escaping, through this hole that is gaping

[02:03.00] This world is mine for the taking

[02:05.13] Make me king, as we move toward a New World Order

[02:08.59] A normal life is borin', but super stardom's close to post mortem

[02:12.57] It only grows harder, only grows hotter

[02:15.49] He blows, it's all over, these hoes is all on him

[02:18.14] Coast to coast shows, he's known as the Globetrotter

[02:21.07] Lonely roads, God only knows, he's grown farther from home, he's no father

[02:25.33] He goes home and barely knows his own daughter

[02:28.03] But hold your nose 'cause here goes the cold water

[02:30.99] These hoes don't want him no mo', he's cold product

[02:33.67] They moved on to the next schmo who flows, he nose dove and sold nada

[02:37.97] So the soap opera is told and unfolds, I suppose it's old partna, but the beat goes on

[02:43.30] Da-da-dum, da-dum, da-da

[02:44.55] You better lose yourself in the music, the moment

[02:47.40] You own it, you better never let it go

[02:49.80] You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow

[02:53.01] This opportunity comes once in a lifetime

[02:55.40] You better lose yourself in the music, the moment

[02:58.51] You own it, you better never let it go

[03:01.18] You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow

[03:04.11] This opportunity comes once in a lifetime

[03:06.77] You better

[03:07.30] No more games, I'ma change what you call rage

[03:09.96] Tear this motherfuckin' roof off like two dogs caged

[03:12.62] I was playin' in the beginnin', the mood all changed

[03:15.61] I been chewed up and spit out and booed off stage

[03:18.26] But I kept rhymin' and stepped right in the next cypher

[03:21.45] Best believe somebody's payin' the Pied Piper

[03:24.37] All the pain inside amplified by the

[03:27.02] Fact that I can't get by with my nine to

[03:29.68] Five and I can't provide the right type of

[03:32.65] Life for my family 'cause man, these goddamn food stamps don't buy diapers

[03:36.63] And its no movie, there's no Mekhi Phifer

[03:39.55] This is my life and these times are so hard

[03:42.20] And it's getting even harder tryna feed and water my seed, plus

[03:45.65] Teeter totter, caught up between bein' a father and a prima donna

[03:49.12] Baby mama drama, screamin' on her, too much

[03:51.50] For me to wanna stay in one spot, another day of monotony's

[03:54.90] Gotten me to the point, I'm like a snail I've got

[03:57.29] To formulate a plot or end up in jail or shot

[04:00.23] Success is my only motherfuckin' option, failure's not

[04:03.69] Mom, I love you, but this trailer's got to go, I cannot grow old in Salem's Lot

[04:08.47] So here I go, is my shot

[04:09.99] Feet, fail me not, this may be the only opportunity that I got

[04:13.72] You better lose yourself in the music, the moment

[04:16.93] You own it, you better never let it go

[04:19.58] You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow

[04:22.77] This opportunity comes once in a lifetime

[04:25.15] You better lose yourself in the music, the moment

[04:28.08] You own it, you better never let it go

[04:30.75] You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow

[04:33.92] This opportunity comes once in a lifetime

[04:36.33] You better

[04:38.72] You can do anything you set your mind to, man
