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?
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 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
Times up, 
over blow!
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 of 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 its
Back to the lab again, yo, this old 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 (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 (go)
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime, you better
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 boring
But super-stardom’s close to postmortem
It only grows harder, homie grows hotter
He blows, its 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 schmo who flows, he nose-dove
And sold nada, so the soap opera’s
Told, it unfolds, I suppose it’s old, partner
But the beat goes on, da-da-dum, da-dum, dah-dah-dah
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
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, you better
No more games, I'm gonna change what you call rage
Tear this motharfuckin’ roof off like two dogs caged
I was playin’ 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 in 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 nine-to-five
And I can't provide the right type of life
For my family 'cause man, these goddamn food stamps don't buy diapers
And there’s no movie, there's no Mekhi Phifer
This is my life and these times are so hard
And it’s getting even harder tryna feed and water my seed, plus
Teeter-totter, caught up between being a father and a premadonna
Baby-mama drama, 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 end up in jail or shot
Success is my only motherfuckin' option, failure's not
Mom, I love you, but this trail has got to go, I can not 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 one 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 (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
