Lyrics Lose yourself Eminem

Lose yourself

[Intro - Eminem]
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?

[Verso 1 - Eminem]
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 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 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
Is he? No
He won't have it,
he knows his whole back city's ropes
It don't matter, he's dope
He knows that, but he's broke
He's so stacked that he knows
When he goes back to his mobile home,
that's when it's
Back to the lab again yo
This whole rap shit
He better go capture
this moment
and hope it don't pass him

[Ritornello x 2 - Eminem]
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

[Verso 2 - Eminem]
The soul's escaping,
through this hole that it's 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 mortar
It only grows harder,
only grows hotter
He blows us all over
these hoes is all on him
Coast to coast shows,
he's know 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 cuz
here goes the cold water
His bosses 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

[Ritornello x 2 - Eminem]

[Verso 3 - Eminem]
No more games,
I'ma 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 somebody's
payin the pied piper
All the pain inside
amplified by the fact
That I can't get by
with my 9 to 5
And I can't provide the right type
of life for my family
Cuz 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
Tryin to feed and
water my seed, plus
See dishonor caught up bein
a father and a prima donna
Baby mama drama's
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,
failure's not
Mom, I love you,
but this trail has got to go
I cannot grow old in Salem's lot
So here I go, is my shot.
Feet fail me not cuz maybe
the only opportunity that I got

[Ritornello x 2 - Eminem]

[Outro - Eminem]
You can do anything
you set your mind to, man
