AUTHOR: EMINEM
LETTER: Look, if you had one
shot, one opportunity
to seize everything you ever wanted
One moment
would you capture it or just let it slip?
His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy
there'ss 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 clocks run out, times up over, bloah!
snap back to reality, oh there goes gravity
oh, there goes rabbit, he choked
hes so mad, but he wont give up that
is he? no
he wont have it , he knows his whole back citys
ropes
it dont matter, hes dope
he knows that, but hes broke
hes so stacked that he knows
when he goes back to his mobile home, thats when
its
back to the lab again yo
this whole rap shit
he better go capture this moment and hope it
dont pass him
Hook:
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 souls escaping, through this hole that its
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 superstardoms 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, hes know as the
globetrotter
lonely roads, god only knows
hes grown farther from home, hes no father
he goes home and barely knows his own daughter
but hold your nose cuz here goes the cold water
His bosses dont want him no mo, hes 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 its old potna, but the beat goes on
da da dum da dum da da
Hook
No more games, ima 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 somebodys payin the pied piper
all the pain inside amplified by the fact
that i cant get by with my 9 to 5
and i cant provide the right type of life for my
family
cuz man, these goddam food stamps dont buy
diapers
and its no movie, theres 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 bein a father and a prima
donna
baby mama drama 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, failures
not
mom, i love you, but this trail has got to go
i cannot grow old in salems lot
so here i go is my shot.
feet fail me not cuz maybe the only opportunity
that i got
Hook
You can do anything you set your mind to, man
