Look
If you had one shot
One opportunity
To seize everything you ever wanted one moment
Would you capture it or just let it slip
His palms are sweaty
Knees weak
Arms are heavy
There's vomit on his sweater already
Mom's forgetting
He's nervous
But on the surface he looks calm and ready
To drop bombs
But he keeps on forgettin
What he wrote down
The whole crowd goes so loud
He opens his mouth
But the words won't come out
He's chokin
How everybody's jokin now
The clock's run out
Time's up over
Bloah
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 d**e
He knows that
But he's broke
He's so stacked that he knows
When he goes back to his mobile home
That's when it's
Back to the lab again yo
This whole rap s**t
He better go capture this moment and hope it don't pass him
You better lose yourself in the music
The moment
You own it
You better never let it 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
You only get one shot
Do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime yo
The soul's escaping
Through this hole that it's gaping
This world is mine for the taking
Make me king
As we move toward a
New world order
A normal life is borin
But superstardom's close to post mortem
It only grows harder
Homie grows hotter
He blows us all over
These h*es is all on him
Coast to coast shows
He's known as the globetrotter
Lonely roads got him
He knows he's grown farther from home
He's no father
He goes home and barely knows his own daughter
But hold ya nose cuz here goes the cold water
The h*es don't want him no more
He's cold prada
They moved on to the next shmo who flows
Who nose dove and sold nada
And so the so proper
His toll
It unfolds
And I suppose it's old
Partner
But the beat goes on
Da da dum da dum da da
You better lose yourself in the music
The moment
You own it
You better never let it 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
You only get one shot
Do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime yo
No more games
I'm change for due called rage
Tear this mothaf**kin roof off like 2 dogs caged
I was playin in the beginnin
The mood all changed
I been chewed up and spit out and booed off stage
But I kept rhymin and stepwritin the next cypher
Best believe somebody's payin the pied piper
All the pain inside amplified by the
Fact that I can't get by with my nine to
Five and I can't provide the right type
Of life for my family cuz man
These goddam 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
Tryin to feed and water my seed
Plus teeter totter
Caught up between being a father and a pre madonna
Baby momma drama screamin' on her
Too much for me to wanna stay in one spot
Another d**n or not has gotten me to the point
I'm like a snail
I've got
To formulate a plot or end up in jail or shot
Success is my only mothaf**kin 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 is my shot
Feet fail me not
Cuz maybe the only opportunity that I got
You better lose yourself in the music
The moment
You own it
You better never let it 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
You only get one shot
Do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime yo
You can do anything you set your mind to
Man
