Look, if you had one shot, 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 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 

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 hoes 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

[Repeat *]

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 between 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

[Repeat *]
