Look, |
|
if you had one shot, |
|
one opportunity |
|
To seize everything you ever wanted |
|
In one moment |
|
Would you capture it or just let it slip |
|
|
|
His plams are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy |
|
There's vomit on his sweater already, mom's spaghetti |
|
He's nervous, but on the surface he looks calm and ready |
|
To drop bombs, but he keeps on forgetting |
|
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 clocks run out, times 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 dont matter, he's dope |
|
He knows that, but he's broke |
|
He's so stacked that he knows |
|
When he goes back to this mobile home, thats when it's |
|
Back to the lab again yo |
|
This whole rap city |
|
He better go capture this moment and hope it don't pass him |
|
|
|
You better lose yourself in the music, the moment |
|
You want 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 |
|
|
|
You better lose yourself in the music, the moment |
|
You want 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 |
|
|
|
The souls escaping, through this hole that is 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 superstardoms close to post mortem |
|
It only grows harder, only grows hotter |
|
He blows us all over these hoes is all on him |
|
Coast to coast shows, he's known as the globetrotter |
|
Lonely roads, God only knows |
|
He's grown farther from home, he's no father |
|
He goes home and barely knows his own daughter |
|
But hold your nose cause here goes the cold water |
|
His hoes don't want him no more, he's cold product |
|
They moved on to the next schmoe who flows |
|
He nose dove and sold nada |
|
So the soap opera is told and unfolds |
|
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 want 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 |
|
|
|
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 |
|
|
|
No more games, I'ma change what you call rage |
|
Tear this mothafuckin 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 9 to 5 |
|
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, theres 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 |
|
See dishonnor caught up between bein a father and a prima donna |
|
Baby mama drama screamin on and |
|
Too much for me to wanna |
|
Stay in one spot, another damn monotony's |
|
Gotten to me, to the point I'm like a snail |
|
I've got to formulate a plot or I end up in jail or shot |
|
Success is my only mothafuckin option, failure's not |
|
Mom, I love you, but this trailer's got to go |
|
I cannot grow old in Salems lot |
|
So here I go its 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, 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 |
|
|
|
You better lose yourself in the music, the moment |
|
You want 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 |
|
|
|
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 |
|
You better... |
|
|
You can do anything you set your mind to, man
