Eminem F/ - Lose Your Self Lyrics

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 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 chokin' 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 easy
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 city
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, you better

His 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 super stardom's close to postmortem

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 cause here goes the cold water
These ho's 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 partner, 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, you better

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
'Cause man, these goddamn food stamps don't buy diapers
And it's no movie, there's no Makai Pfeiffer, this is my life
And these times are so hard and it's getting even harder

Tryin' to feed and water my seed, plus
Teeter totter caught up between trying to be a father and a Prima Donna
Baby mama drama's screamin' on and too much for me to wanna
Stay in one spot, another day of monotony
Has 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 mothafuckin' 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 is my shot
Feet fail me not or 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, you better

You can do anything you set your mind to, man
