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 spaghetti
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
Is he No
He won't have it
he knows his whole back
city's ropes
It don't matter he's dope
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 shit
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 mortar
It only grows harder
only grows hotter
He blows us all over
these hoes is all on him
Coast to coast shows
he's know 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
cuz here goes the cold water
His bosses don't want him
no mo 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 potna
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'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
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
See dishonor caught up bein
a father and a prima donna
Baby mama drama's
screamin on and
Too much for me to wanna
Stay in one spot
another jam or not
Has gotten me to the point
I'm like a snail
I've got to formulate a plot
fore I end up in jail
or shot
Success is my only
mothafuckin option
failure's not
Mom I love you
but this trail has 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

once in a lifetime yo
