Lose Yourself
7.3 Lyrics

Her palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy
There's vomit on her sweater already, mom's spaghetti
She's nervous, but on the surface she looks calm and ready
To drop bombs, but she keeps on forgettin'
What she wrote down, the whole crowd goes so loud
She opens his mouth, but the words won't come out
She's chokin', how, everybody's jokin' now
The clocks run out, times up, over, blaow Snap back to reality, ope there goes gravity
Ope, there goes Rabbit, she choked
She's so mad, but she won't give up that easy? No
She won't have it, she knows her whole back's to these ropes
It don't matter, she's dope, she knows that, but she's broke
She's so stagnant, she knows, when she goes back to this 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 her

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 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

Her soul's escaping, through this hole that is gaping
This world is mine for the taking
Make me queen, as we move toward a New World Order
c normal life is borin', but super stardom's close to post mortem
It only grows harder, only grows hotter
She blows, it's all over, these hoes is all on her
Coast to coast shows, she's known as the Globetrotter
Lonely roads, God only knows, she's grown farther from home, she's no mother
She goes home and barely knows her own daughter
But hold your nose 'cause here goes the cold water
These boys don't want her no mo', she's cold product
They moved on to the next schmo who flows, she 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
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

No more games, I'ma change what you call rage
Tear this motherfuckin' roof off like two 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 stepped right in the next cypher
Best believe somebody's payin' the Pied Piper
cll 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
cnd its no movie, there's no Mekhi Phifer
This is my life and these times are so hard
cnd it's getting even harder tryna feed and water my seed, plus
Teeter totter, caught up between bein' a mother and a prima donna
Baby fatha drama, screamin' on him, 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 trailer's got to go, I cannot grow old in Salem's Lot
So here I go, is my shot
Feet, fail me not, this may be the only opportunity 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
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
