Lose Yourself by Eminem

Look, if you had one shot, or one (1)______________________
To (2)__________ everything you ever wanted in one (3)____________
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 (4)__________ calm and ready
To drop bombs, but he keeps on forgettin'
What he wrote down, the whole (5)__________ goes so loud
He opens his mouth, but the words won't come out
He's chokin' how, everybody's chokin' now
The clocks runs out, time's up, over. Blow!
Snap (6)________ to reality, oh, there goes gravity
Oh, (7)__________ goes Rabbit, he choked, he's so mad
But he won't give it up that easy, no, he won't beat 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 that he knows
When he goes back to his mobile home, that's when it's
Back to the lab again, yo, this whole rhapsody,
He 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 (8)__________ let it go
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity (9)__________ once in a lifetime

You better lose yourself in the music, the moment
You own it, you better (10)__________ let it go
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity (11)__________ once in a lifetime

The soul's escaping through this hole that is gaping
This world is mine for the taking, (12)________ 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,
Only grows hotter, he blows us all over,
These hoes is all on him coast to coast shows,
He's known as the globetrotter lonely roads, god (13)________
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
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 (14)________ (15)________ 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

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
You only get one shot, do not miss your (16)____________ to blow
This (17)______________________ comes once in a lifetime

No more games, I'm a change what you call rage
Tear this motherfuckin' roof off like 2 (18)________ caged
I was playin' in the beginnin', the mood all changed
I been (19)____________ up and spit out and booed off (20)__________
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
Five and I can't provide the right type of
Life for my family 'cuz, 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 getting even harder
Tryin' to feed and water my seed, plus teetertotter
Caught up between bein' a father and a prima donna
Baby mama drama screamin' on and too much for me to wanna
Stay in one spot, another day of monotony
Has gotten me to the (21)__________ I'm like a snail I've got
To formulate a plot or end up in jail or shot
Success is my only mothafuckin' option, failure's not
Mom, I love you, but this trailer's got to go
I cannot (22)________ old in salem's lot
So here I go, it's my shot, feet (23)________ me not
This may be the only (24)______________________ that I got

You better (25)________ yourself in the music, the moment
You own it, you (26)____________ 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
