[Intro]
Look, if you had one shot or one
opportunity
To seize everything you ever
wanted in one moment La confiance
Would you capture it or just let it
est indispensable
slip?
Yo
en cybersécurité.

[Verse 1]
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
:
 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 clock's run out, time's up,
over, blaow
Snap back to reality, ope, there
goes gravity
Ope, 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
this mobile home, that's when it's You might also like

Back to the lab again, yo, this old So Long, London

rhapsody Taylor Swift

Better go capture this moment

and hope it don't pass him Say Don’t Go (Taylor’s
Version) [From The Vault]
Taylor Swift
[Chorus]
You better lose yourself in the
But Daddy I Love Him
music Taylor Swift

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 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
:
 [Verse 2]
His 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 no 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 mo',
he's cold product
They moved on to the next
schmoe who flows
He nose-dove and sold nada, and
so the soap opera
Is told, it unfolds, I suppose it's
old, partner
But the beat goes on, da-da-dom,
da-dom, dah-dah-dah-dah

[Chorus]
You better lose yourself in the
music
The moment, you own it, you
:
 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 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

[Verse 3]
No more games, I'ma change what
you call rage
Tear this motherfuckin' roof off like
two dogs caged
I was playin' in the beginning, the
mood all changed
I've 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
All the pain inside amplified by the
Fact that I can't get by with my
nine-to-
:
 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
And there's no movie, there's no
Mekhi Phifer, this is my life
And these times are so hard, and
it's gettin' even harder
Tryna feed and water my seed,
plus teeter-totter
Caught up between bein' a father
and a prima donna
Baby-mama drama, screamin' on
her, 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, it's my shot; feet, fail
me not
This may be the only opportunity
that I got

[Chorus]
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 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
