"Lose Yourself"
[00:34.29] Look, if you had one shot or one opportunity
[00:43.77] To seize everything you ever wanted in one moment
[00:49.03] Would you capture it, or just let it slip? Yo
[00:53.68] His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy
[00:56.55] There's vomit on his sweater already, mom's spaghetti
[00:59.30] He's nervous, but on the surface he looks calm and ready
[01:02.15] To drop bombs, but he keeps on forgetting
[01:04.77] What he wrote down, the whole crowd goes so loud
[01:07.78] He opens his mouth, but the words won't come out
[01:10.54] He's choking, how? Everybody's joking now
[01:13.18] The clock's run out, time's up, over-blaow!
[01:16.17] Snap back to reality, ope there goes gravity, ope
[01:19.54] There goes Rabbit, he choked, he's so mad but he won't
[01:22.29] Give up that easy, no, he won't have it, he knows
[01:25.17] His whole back's to these ropes, it don't matter, he's dope
[01:27.93] He knows that but he's broke, he's so stagnant, he knows
[01:30.82] When he goes back to this mobile home, that's when it's
[01:33.19] Back to the lab again yo, this old rap shit, he
[01:36.33] Better go capture this moment and hope it don't pass him, and
[01:38.19] You better lose yourself in the music
[01:40.56] The moment, you own it, you better never let it go (Go!)
[01:43.59] You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
[01:46.96] This opportunity comes once in a lifetime, yo
[01:49.34] You better lose yourself in the music
[01:51.86] The moment, you own it, you better never let it go (Go!)
[01:54.83] You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
[01:57.98] This opportunity comes once in a lifetime, yo
[02:00.99] You better…
[02:01.13] His soul's escaping through this hole that is gaping
[02:04.13] This world is mine for the taking, make me king
[02:07.17] As we move toward a New World Order
[02:09.67] A normal life is boring; but superstardom's
[02:12.36] Close to post-mortem, it only grows harder
[02:15.13] Homie grows hotter, he blows, it's all over
[02:17.77] These hoes is all on him, coast-to-coast shows
[02:20.55] He's known as the Globetrotter, lonely roads
[02:23.04] God only knows, he's grown farther from home, he's no father
[02:26.39] He goes home and barely knows his own daughter
[02:29.26] But hold your nose, 'cause here goes the cold water
[02:32.02] These hoes don't want him no mo', he's cold product
[02:34.78] They moved on to the next schmoe who flows
[02:37.08] He nose-dove and sold nada, and so the soap opera
[02:40.47] Is told, it unfolds, I suppose it's old, partner
[02:43.13] But the beat goes on: da-da-dom, da-dom, dah-dah, dah-dah
[02:45.43] You better lose yourself in the music
[02:47.80] The moment, you own it, you better never let it go (Go!)
[02:50.80] You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
[02:54.05] This opportunity comes once in a lifetime, yo
[02:56.55] You better lose yourself in the music
[02:58.79] The moment, you own it, you better never let it go (Go!)
[03:02.06] You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
[03:05.30] This opportunity comes once in a lifetime, yo
[03:07.78] You better…
[03:08.30] No more games, I'ma change what you call rage
[03:10.92] Tear this motherfuckin' roof off like two dogs caged
[03:13.49] I was playin' in the beginning, the mood all changed
[03:16.51] I've been chewed up and spit out and booed off stage
[03:19.39] But I kept rhymin' and stepped right in the next cypher
[03:22.39] Best believe somebody's payin' the Pied Piper
[03:25.44] All the pain inside amplified by the
[03:27.84] Fact that I can't get by with my nine-to-
[03:30.84] Five and I can't provide the right type of life for my family
[03:34.84] 'Cause man, these goddamn food stamps don't buy diapers
[03:37.70] And there's no movie, there's no Mekhi Phifer, this is my life
[03:41.74] And these times are so hard, and it's gettin' even harder
[03:44.72] Tryna feed and water my seed, plus teeter-totter
[03:47.34] Caught up between bein' a father and a prima donna
[03:50.11] Baby mama drama, screamin' on her, too much for me to wanna
[03:53.37] Stay in one spot, another day of monotony's
[03:55.80] Gotten me to the point I'm like a snail, I've got
[03:58.56] To formulate a plot or end up in jail or shot
[04:01.19] Success is my only motherfuckin' option-failure's not
[04:04.69] Mom, I love you, but this trailer's got
[04:06.95] To go; I cannot grow old in Salem's Lot
[04:09.43] So here I go, it's my shot: feet, fail me not
[04:12.43] This may be the only opportunity that I got
[04:15.12] You better lose yourself in the music
[04:17.25] The moment, you own it, you better never let it go (Go!)
[04:20.50] You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
[04:23.49] This opportunity comes once in a lifetime, yo
[04:26.49] You better lose yourself in the music
[04:28.36] The moment, you own it, you better never let it go (Go!)
[04:31.63] You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
[04:34.87] This opportunity comes once in a lifetime, yo
[04:37.64] You better…
