  			      Dm                                                  
His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy  
              Bb                        C                 
There's vomit on his sweater already, mom's spaghetti  
             Dm                                                  
He's nervous, but on the surface he looks calm and ready  
          Bb                  C                            
To drop bombs, but he keeps on forgetting  
          Dm                                              
What he wrote down, the whole crowd goes so loud  
      Bb                            C                      
He opens his mouth, but the words won't come out  
        Dm                                                
He's choking, how? Everybody's joking now  
             Bb                   C                        
The clock's run out, times up, over, blaoh!  

       Dm                                                 
Snap back to reality, oh, there goes gravity  
Bb                           C                         Dm         
Oh, there goes Rabbit. He choked, he's so mad but he won't  
                                             Bb                
Give up that easy, no, he won't have it he knows  
                            C                         Dm        
His whole back's to these ropes, it don't matter he's dope  
                                                    Bb           
He knows that but he's broke, he's so stagnant he knows  
                                 C                            
When he goes back to his mobile home, that's when it's  
Dm                                                             
Back to the lab again, yo  
                       Bb                                      
This whole rhapsody better go capture this moment  
      C                                                       
And hope it don't pass him  
                                                             
                                                            
 
            Dm                                                 
You better lose yourself in the music  
                     Bb                           C             
The moment, you own it, you better never let it go  
            Dm                                              
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow  
           Bb                         C                         
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime, yo  
             Dm

                    Bb                            C

              Dm                                               
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow  
           Bb                         C

      Dm                                                  
His soul's escaping, through this hole that is gaping  
              Bb                        C                 
This world is mine for the taking, make me king  
      Dm                                                  
As we move toward a new world order, a normal life is boring  
              Bb                        C                 
But superstardom's close to post mortem  
      Dm                                                  
It only grows harder, homie grows hotter  
              Bb                        C                 
He blows. It's all over, these hoes is all on him  
      Dm                                                  
Coast to coast shows, he's known as the Globetrotter lonely roads  
              Bb                        C                 
God only knows he's grown farther from home, he's no father  
      Dm                                                  
He goes home and barely knows his own daughter  
              Bb                        C                 
But hold your nose cuz here goes the cold water  
      Dm                                                  
These hoes don't want him no more, he's cold product  
              Bb                        C                 
They moved on to the next schmoe who flows  
      Dm                                                  
He nose dove and sold nada, so the soap opera is told it unfolds  
              Bb                        C                 
I suppose it's old partner, but the beat goes on  
      Dm                                                  
Da da dum, da dum da da da

You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow

      Dm                                                  
No more games, I'ma change what you call rage  
                     Bb                           C

      Dm                                                  
I was playing in the beginning, the mood all changed  
                     Bb                           C             
I've been chewed up and spit out and booed off stage  
      Dm                                                  
But I kept rhyming and stepped, writing the next cypher  
                     Bb                           C             
Best believe somebody's paying the pied piper  
      Dm                                                  
All the pain inside amplified by the fact  
                     Bb                           C             
That I can't get by with my 9 to 5  
      Dm                                                  
And I can't provide the right type of life for my family  
                     Bb                           C             
Cause man, these goddamn food stamps don't buy diapers  
      Dm                                                  
And it's no movie, there's no Mekhi Phifer, this is my life  
                     Bb                           C             
And these times are so hard and it's getting even harder  
      Dm                                                  
Trying to feed and water my seed, plus teeter-totter

Caught up between being a father and a prima donna

                     Bb                           C             
Stay in one spot, another day of monotony's  
      Dm                                                  
Gotten me to the point I'm like a snail

Success is my only motherfucking option, failure's not
