El Himno de la Superación: «Lose Yourself»

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, 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's to 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 it's

Back to the lab again, yo

This whole 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

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)

The soul's 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 superstardom's close to post mortem

It only grows harder, homie grows hotter

He blows, it's 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 known 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 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 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 (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'm a change what you call rage

Tear this motherfucking roof off like two dogs caged

I was playing 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 into 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 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 trying to feed and water my seed plus

Teeter totter, caught up between being a father and a prima donna

Baby mama drama's screaming on her, 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 end up in jail or shot

Success is my only motherfucking 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 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 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, yo (you better)

You can do anything you set your mind to, man
