Look if you had one shot or one opportunity

To seize everything you ever wanted one moment

Would you capture it

Or just let it slip yo

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 choking how Everybody's joking now

The clock's run out times up over blaoh

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 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 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

His 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 post mortem

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

These 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 it unfolds

I suppose it's old partner but the beat goes on

Da da dum da dum da 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 motherf**king 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 writing 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 prima donna

Baby mama drama's screaming on and 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 end up in jail or shot

Success is my only motherf**king 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

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 better

You can do anything you set your mind to man
