Lose Yourself Lyrics - Eminem

1 Look

2 If you had one shot, or one opportunity

3 To seize everything you ever wanted

4 One moment

5 Would you capture it or just let it slip?

6 Yo

7 His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy

8 There's vomit on his sweater already, mom's spaghetti

9 He's nervous, but on the surface he looks calm and ready to drop bombs

10 But he keeps on forgetting what he wrote down, the whole crowd goes so loud

11 He opens his mouth, but the words won't come out

12 He's choking how, everybody's joking now

13 The clock's run out, time's up, over, blaow!

14 Snap back to reality

15 Oh, there goes gravity

16 Oh, there goes Rabbit, he choked

17 He's so mad, but he won't give up that easy, no

18 He won't have it, he knows his whole back's to these ropes

19 It don't matter, he's dope

20 He knows that but he's broke

21 He's so stagnant, he knows when he goes back to his mobile home, that's when it's

22 Back to the lab again, yo

23 This whole rhapsody

24 He better go capture this moment and hope it don't pass him

25 You better lose yourself in the music, the moment

26 You own it, you better never let it go

27 You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow

28 This opportunity comes once in a lifetime

29 You better lose yourself in the music, the moment

30 You own it, you better never let it go

31 You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow

32 This opportunity comes once in a lifetime

33 You better

34 The soul's escaping, through this hole that is gaping

35 This world is mine for the taking

36 Make me king, as we move toward a new world order

37 A normal life is boring, but superstardom's close to post mortem

38 It only grows harder, homie grows hotter

39 He blows, it's all over

40 These hoes is all on him

41 Coast to coast shows, he's known as the globetrotter

42 Lonely roads, God only knows

43 He's knows is grown farther from home, he's no father

44 He goes home and barely knows his own daughter

45 But hold your nose 'cause here goes the cold water

46 His hoes don't want him no more, he's cold product

47 They moved on to the next schmoe who flows

48 He nose dove and sold nada

49 So the soap opera is told and unfolds

50 I suppose it's old partner but the beat goes on

51 Da da dum, da dum da da

52 You better lose yourself in the music, the moment

53 You own it, you better never let it go

54 You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow

55 This opportunity comes once in a lifetime

56 You better lose yourself in the music, the moment

57 You own it, you better never let it go

58 You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow

59 This opportunity comes once in a lifetime

60 You better

61 No more games, I'ma change what you call rage

62 Tear this motherfucking roof off like two dogs caged

63 I was playing in the beginning, the mood all changed

64 I've been chewed up and spit out and booed off stage

65 But I kept rhyming and stepped right into the next cypher

66 Best believe somebody's paying the pied piper

67 All the pain inside amplified by the fact

68 That I can't get by with my 9-to-5

69 And I can't provide the right type of life for my family

70 'Cause man, these goddamn food stamps don't buy diapers

71 And it's no movie, there's no Mekhi Phifer, this is my life

72 And these times are so hard, and it's getting even harder

73 Trying to feed and water my seed, plus

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

75 Baby mama drama's screaming on and

76 Too much for me to wanna stay in one spot, another day of monotony

77 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

78 Success is my only motherfucking option, failure's not

79 Mom, I love you, but this trailer's got to go

80 I cannot grow old in Salem's lot

81 So here I go it's my shot

82 Feet, fail me not, this may be the only opportunity that I got

83 You better

84 Lose yourself in the music, the moment

85 You own it, you better never let it go

86 You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow

87 This opportunity comes once in a lifetime

88 You better lose yourself in the music, the moment

89 You own it, you better never let it go

90 You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow

91 This opportunity comes once in a lifetime

92 You better

93 You can do anything you set your mind to, man
