Better Lose Yourself - Mr.Cali[00:00:00]
Look, if you had one shot, or one opportunity[00:00:49]
To seize everything you ever wanted, one moment[00:00:57]
Would you capture it, or just let it slip? Yo[00:01:02]
His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy[00:01:07]
There's vomit on his sweater already, mom's spaghetti[00:01:10]
He's nervous, but on the surface he looks calm and ready[00:01:13]
To drop bombs, but he keeps on forgettin'[00:01:15]
What he wrote down, the whole crowd goes so loud[00:01:18]
He opens his mouth, but the words won't come out[00:01:21]
He's chokin' how, everybody's chokin' now[00:01:24]
The clock's run out, time's up, over, bloah![00:01:26]
Snap back to reality, oh, there goes gravity[00:01:29]
Oh, there goes Rabbit, he choked, he's so mad[00:01:32]
But he won't give up that easy, no, he won't have it[00:01:35]
He knows his whole back's to these ropes[00:01:38]
It don't matter, he's dope[00:01:40]
He knows that, but he's broke, he's so stagnant, he knows[00:01:42]
When he goes back to his mobile home, that's when it's[00:01:44]
Back to the lab again, yo, this whole rhapsody[00:01:47]
He better go capture this moment and hope it don't pass him[00:01:49]
You better lose yourself in the music, the moment[00:01:52]
You own it, you better never let it go[00:01:54]
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow[00:01:57]
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime[00:02:00]
You better lose yourself in the music, the moment[00:02:03]
You own it, you better never let it go[00:02:06]
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow[00:02:08]
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime[00:02:11]
The soul's escaping through this hole that is gaping[00:02:14]
This world is mine for the taking, make me king[00:02:17]
As we move toward a new world order[00:02:21]
A normal life is boring, but superstardom's close to post-mortem[00:02:23]
It only grows harder, only grows hotter[00:02:26]
He blows us all over, these hoes is all on him[00:02:30]
Coast to coast shows, he's known as the globetrotter[00:02:33]
Lonely roads, God only knows he's grown farther from home[00:02:36]
He's no father, he goes home and barely knows his own daughter[00:02:38]
But hold your nose cuz here goes the cold water[00:02:42]
These hoes don't want him no mo', he's cold product[00:02:45]
They moved on to the next schmoe who flows[00:02:48]
He nose dove and sold nada[00:02:50]
So the soap opera is told and unfolds, I suppose it's old partner[00:02:52]
But the beat goes on da da dum da dum da da[00:02:56]
You better lose yourself in the music, the moment[00:02:59]
You own it, you better never let it go[00:03:01]
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow[00:03:04]
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime[00:03:07]
You better lose yourself in the music, the moment[00:03:10]
You own it, you better never let it go[00:03:13]
You only get one shot do not miss your chance to blow[00:03:15]
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime[00:03:18]
No more games, I'ma change what you call rage[00:03:20]
Tear this mothaf**kin' roof off like 2 dogs caged[00:03:24]
I was playin' in the beginnin, the mood all changed[00:03:27]
I been chewed up and spit out and booed off stage[00:03:30]
But I kept rhymin' and stepwritin' the next cypher[00:03:33]
Best believe somebody's payin' the pied piper[00:03:36]
All the pain inside amplified by the fact[00:03:38]
That I can't get by with my nine to five[00:03:41]
And I can't provide the right type of life for my family[00:03:44]
Cuz man, these goddam food stamps don't buy diapers[00:03:48]
And it's no movie, there's no Mekhi Phifer[00:03:51]
This is my life, and these times are so hard[00:03:54]
And it's getting even harder tryin' to feed and water my seed, plus[00:03:56]
Teetertotter caught up between bein a father and a prima donna[00:04:00]
Baby mama drama screamin on and too much for me to wanna[00:04:03]
Stay in one spot, another day of monotony[00:04:07]
Has gotten me to the point I'm like a snail[00:04:09]
I've got to formulate a plot or end up in jail or shot[00:04:12]
Success is my only mothaf**kin' option, failure's not[00:04:14]
Mom, I love you, but this trailer's got to go[00:04:18]
I cannot grow old in Salem's lot[00:04:21]
So here I go with my shot, feet fail me not[00:04:23]
This may be the only opportunity that I got[00:04:25]
You better lose yourself in the music, the moment[00:04:28]
You own it, you better never let it go[00:04:31]
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow[00:04:34]
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime[00:04:37]
You better lose yourself in the music, the moment[00:04:39]
You own it, you better never let it go[00:04:42]
You only get one shot do not miss your chance to blow[00:04:45]
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime[00:04:48]
This is just my start of the road man![00:04:54]
