Lose Yourself
[00:03.35] Look
[00:05.87] If you had
[00:08.10] One shot
[00:10.11] Or one opportunity
[00:12.60] To seize everything you ever wanted
[00:15.38] In one moment
[00:17.35] Would you capture it
[00:19.85] Or just let it slip?
[00:21.38] Yo
[00:22.61] His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy
[00:25.36] There's vomit on his sweater already, mom's spaghetti
[00:28.10] He's nervous, but on the surface he looks calm and ready
[00:31.36] To drop bombs, but he keeps on forgettin'
[00:33.85] What he wrote down, the whole crowd goes so loud
[00:36.35] He opens his mouth, but the words won't come out
[00:39.35] He's chokin', how, everybody's jokin' now
[00:42.11] The clocks run out, times up, over, blaow
[00:44.85] Snap back to reality, ope there goes gravity
[00:48.11] Ope, there goes Rabbit, he choked
[00:49.85] He's so mad, but he won't give up that easy? No
[00:52.35] He won't have it, he knows his whole back's to these ropes
[00:55.37] It don't matter, he's dope, he knows that, but he's broke
[00:57.85] He's so stagnant, he knows, when he goes back to this mobile home, that's when it's
[01:02.10] Back to the lab again, yo, this whole rhapsody
[01:04.86] Better go capture this moment and hope it don't pass him
[01:07.36] You better lose yourself in the music, the moment
[01:10.10] You own it, you better never let it go
[01:12.88] You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
[01:15.61] This opportunity comes once in a lifetime
[01:18.10] You better lose yourself in the music, the moment
[01:21.36] You own it, you better never let it go
[01:23.85] You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
[01:26.85] This opportunity comes once in a lifetime
[01:29.36] You better
[01:30.10] His soul's escaping, through this hole that is gaping
[01:32.85] This world is mine for the taking
[01:35.10] Make me king, as we move toward a New World Order
[01:38.35] A normal life is borin', but super stardom's close to post mortem
[01:42.62] It only grows harder, only grows hotter
[01:45.36] He blows, it's all over, these hoes is all on him
[01:48.10] Coast to coast shows, he's known as the Globetrotter
[01:51.10] Lonely roads, God only knows, he's grown farther from home, he's no father
[01:55.11] He goes home and barely knows his own daughter
[01:57.86] But hold your nose 'cause here goes the cold water
[02:00.87] These hoes don't want him no mo', he's cold product
[02:03.60] They moved on to the next schmo who flows, he nose dove and sold nada
[02:07.86] So the soap opera is told and unfolds, I suppose it's old partna, but the beat goes on
[02:13.11] Da-da-dum, da-dum, da-da
[02:14.37] You better lose yourself in the music, the moment
[02:17.10] You own it, you better never let it go
[02:19.86] You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
[02:22.85] This opportunity comes once in a lifetime
[02:25.35] You better lose yourself in the music, the moment
[02:28.36] You own it, you better never let it go
[02:31.11] You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
[02:34.10] This opportunity comes once in a lifetime
[02:36.61] You better
[02:37.36] No more games, I'ma change what you call rage
[02:39.86] Tear this motherfuckin' roof off like two dogs caged
[02:42.61] I was playin' in the beginnin', the mood all changed
[02:45.36] I been chewed up and spit out and booed off stage
[02:47.86] But I kept rhymin' and stepped right in the next cypher
[02:51.35] Best believe somebody's payin' the Pied Piper
[02:54.11] All the pain inside amplified by the
[02:56.86] Fact that I can't get by with my nine to
[02:59.60] Five and I can't provide the right type of
[03:02.60] Life for my family 'cause man, these goddamn food stamps don't buy diapers
[03:06.60] And its no movie, there's no Mekhi Phifer
[03:09.36] This is my life and these times are so hard
[03:12.10] And it's getting even harder tryna feed and water my seed, plus
[03:15.36] Teeter totter, caught up between bein' a father and a prima donna
[03:19.12] Baby mama drama, screamin' on her, too much
[03:21.37] For me to wanna stay in one spot, another day of monotony's
[03:24.85] Gotten me to the point, I'm like a snail I've got
[03:27.10] To formulate a plot or end up in jail or shot
[03:30.12] Success is my only motherfuckin' option, failure's not
[03:33.35] Mom, I love you, but this trailer's got to go, I cannot grow old in Salem's Lot
[03:38.35] So here I go, is my shot
[03:40.12] Feet, fail me not, this may be the only opportunity that I got
[03:43.85] You better lose yourself in the music, the moment
[03:46.61] You own it, you better never let it go
[03:49.35] You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
[03:52.61] This opportunity comes once in a lifetime
[03:54.85] You better lose yourself in the music, the moment
[03:58.10] You own it, you better never let it go
[04:00.60] You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
[04:03.85] This opportunity comes once in a lifetime
[04:06.12] You better
[04:08.86] You can do anything you set your mind to, man
