Look if you had one shot
Or one opportunity
To seize everything you ever wanted
In 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 forgetting
What he wrote down
The whole crowd goes so loud
He opens his mouth
But the words won't come out
He's choking how
Everybody's joking now
The clock's run out
Time's up over blaow
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 dope
He knows that but he's broke
He's so stagnant he knows
When he goes back to his mobile
Home that's when it's
Back to the lab again yo
This whole rhapsody
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 (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 (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 is gaping
This world is mine for the taking
Make me king as we move
Toward a new world order
A normal life is boring
But superstardom's
Close to postmortem
It only grows harder
Homie grows hotter
He blows It's 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 *** da *** da da da da
You better lose yourself
In the music the moment
You own it you better
Never let it go (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 (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'mma change
What you call rage
Tear this motherfucking
Roof off like two dogs caged
I was playing in the beginning
The mood all changed
I've been chewed up
And spit out and booed off stage
But I kept rhyming and stepped
Right into the next cypher
Best believe somebody's
Paying 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
'Cause man these goddamn 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
Trying to feed and water my seed plus
Teeter totter caught up between
Being a father and a primadonna
Baby mama drama's screaming on her
Too much for me to wanna
Stay in one spot another day
Of monotony's gotten 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 motherfucking
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 it's my shot
Feet fail me not
This may be the only
Opportunity that I got
You better lose yourself
In the music the moment
You own it you better
Never let it go (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 (go)
You only get one shot
Do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes
Once in a lifetime (yo)
