Lyrics
LookIf you hadOne shotOr one opportunityTo seize everything you ever wantedIn one momentWould you capture itOr just let it slip?
YoHis palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavyThere's vomit on his sweater already, mom's spaghettiHe's nervous, but on the surface he looks calm and readyTo drop bombs, but he keeps on forgettin'What he wrote down, the whole crowd goes so loudHe opens his mouth, but the words won't come outHe's chokin', how, everybody's jokin' nowThe clocks run out, times up, over, blaowSnap back to reality, ope there goes gravityOpe, there goes Rabbit, he chokedHe's so mad, but he won't give up that easy? NoHe won't have it, he knows his whole back's to these ropesIt don't matter, he's dope, he knows that, but he's brokeHe's so stagnant, he knows, when he goes back to this mobile home, that's when it'sBack to the lab again, yo, this whole rhapsodyBetter go capture this moment and hope it don't pass him
You better lose yourself in the music, the momentYou own it, you better never let it goYou only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blowThis opportunity comes once in a lifetime
You better lose yourself in the music, the momentYou own it, you better never let it goYou only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blowThis opportunity comes once in a lifetime You better
His soul's escaping, through this hole that is gapingThis world is mine for the takingMake me king, as we move toward a New World OrderA normal life is borin', but super stardom's close to post mortemIt only grows harder, only grows hotterHe blows, it's all over, these hoes is all on himCoast to coast shows, he's known as the GlobetrotterLonely roads, God only knows, he's grown farther from home, he's no fatherHe goes home and barely knows his own daughterBut hold your nose 'cause here goes the cold waterThese hoes don't want him no mo', he's cold productThey moved on to the next schmo who flows, he nose dove and sold nadaSo the soap opera is told and unfolds, I suppose it's old partna, but the beat goes onDa-da-dum, da-dum, da-da
You better lose yourself in the music, the momentYou own it, you better never let it goYou only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blowThis opportunity comes once in a lifetime
You better lose yourself in the music, the momentYou own it, you better never let it goYou only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blowThis opportunity comes once in a lifetimeYou better
No more games, I'ma change what you call rageTear this motherfuckin' roof off like two dogs cagedI was playin' in the beginnin', the mood all changedI been chewed up and spit out and booed off stageBut I kept rhymin' and stepped right in the next cypherBest believe somebody's payin' the Pied PiperAll the pain inside amplified by theFact that I can't get by with my nine toFive and I can't provide the right type ofLife for my family 'cause man, these goddamn food stamps don't buy diapersAnd its no movie, there's no Mekhi PhiferThis is my life and these times are so hardAnd it's getting even harder tryna feed and water my seed, plusTeeter totter, caught up between bein' a father and a prima donnaBaby mama drama, screamin' on her, too muchFor me to wanna stay in one spot, another day of monotony'sGotten me to the point, I'm like a snail I've gotTo formulate a plot or end up in jail or shotSuccess is my only motherfuckin' option, failure's notMom, I love you, but this trailer's got to go, I cannot grow old in Salem's LotSo here I go, is my shotFeet, fail me not, this may be the only opportunity that I got
You better lose yourself in the music, the momentYou own it, you better never let it goYou only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blowThis opportunity comes once in a lifetime
You better lose yourself in the music, the momentYou own it, you better never let it goYou only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blowThis opportunity comes once in a lifetime You better
You can do anything you set your mind to, man
