LOSE YOURSLF EMINEM.

I chose to speak about the legendary raper Eminem, more precisly about his song "lose yourself"



Eminem. //Lose yourself.//

(Intro) Look, if you had one shot, or one opportunity To seize everything you ever wanted in one moment Would you capture it? Or just let it slip?

(Verse 1) Yeah, 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 crowd goes so loud He opens his mouth, but the words won't come out He's choking how, everybody's joking 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 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 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

(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

(Verse 2) This 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, homey grows hotter He blows it's 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 '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 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

(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

(Verse 3) No more games, I'ma change what you call rage Tear this motherfucking roof off like two dogs caged I was playing in the beginning, the mood all changed I been chewed up, and spit out, and booed off stage But I kept rhyming and stepwritin' the next cypher Best believe somebody's paying 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 'Cause man, these Goddamn 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 Trying to feed and water my seed, plus Teeter totter caught up between being a father and a prima donna Baby mama drama's screaming on and Too much for me to wanna Stay in one spot, another day of monotony Has 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 motherfucking 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 is my shot. Feet fail me not 'cause maybe 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

(Outro) You can do anything you set your mind to, man

 * Introduction:**


 * What does the song mean?**

This son means the clear meaning of having one shot, one opportunity in your lige anf taking it, in the film Eminem has one but he fails, he is so lucky that he has another one but now he has to demostrate all he knows beacuse he dosen´t has another one. Yes, the song refers to the film and so having one opportunity and to don´t screw it all up. The chance of having one opportunyty and do all what is in your hands to do it what you want to do without letting anyone stop you from your dreams. Alsow having to create a better life with one child and that, witout any opportunityes so iif you had one you´ld have to be ready to take it.

I like this song beacuse it was one of my first hip hop song I´ve ever heard and one of the better ones. The begging i´ts the most good part I think, when it starts the base and the piano and Eminem does the intro, one of his speaches. Alsow beacuse eminem in his songs he sings angry, like feed up with life but he dosen´t stops trying it. He expresses very good the sense of the song, Apart from that I like this song beacuse I can catch most of the lyrics, in the hip hop or american music I don´t understand anything, but all the songs of Eminem I like it beacuse of that, I understand it.
