[00:03.320]Look, if you had one shot, one opportunity
[00:12.630]To seize everything you ever wanted…One moment

[00:22.400]His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy
[00:25.200]There's vomit on his sweater already, mom's spaghetti
[00:28.020]He's nervous, but on the surface he looks calm and ready
[00:30.780]To drop bombs, but he keeps on forgettin
[00:33.570]What he wrote down, the whole crowd goes so loud
[00:36.310]He opens his mouth, but the words won't come out
[00:39.070]He's chokin, how everybody's jokin now
[00:41.820]The clock's run out, time's up over, bloah!

[00:52.250]He won't have it , he knows his whole back city's ropes
[00:55.030]It don't matter, he's ****
[00:56.480]He knows that, but he's broke
[00:57.830]He's so stacked that he knows
[00:59.150]When he goes back to his mobile home, that's when it's
[01:01.520]Back to the lab again yo
[01:03.310]This whole rap ****
[01:04.520]He better go capture this moment and hope it don't pass him

[01:32.220]This world is mine for the taking
[01:34.290]Make me king, as we move toward a, new world order
[01:37.540]A normal life is borin, but superstardom's close to post mortar
[01:41.670]It only grows harder, only grows hotter
[01:44.350]He blows us all over these hoes is all on him
[01:47.250]Coast to coast shows, he's know as the globetrotter
[01:50.020]Lonely roads, God only knows
[01:51.710]He's grown farther from home, he's no father
[01:54.210]He goes home and barely knows his own daughter
[01:56.890]But hold your nose cuz here goes the cold water
[01:59.720]His bosses don't want him no mo, he's cold product
[02:02.540]They moved on to the next schmoe who flows
[02:04.790]He nose dove and sold nada
[02:06.660]So the soap opera is told and unfolds

[02:46.800]But I kept rhymin and stepwritin the next cypher
[02:49.590]Best believe somebody's payin the pied piper
[02:52.400]All the pain inside amplified by the fact
[02:55.550]That I can't get by with my 9 to 5
[02:58.230]And I can't provide the right type of life for my family
[03:01.860]Cuz man, these goddam food stamps don't buy diapers
