Eminem writes about what he knows. Growing up in the inner city and struggling like everyone else does. The yearning to be more, to have more. And not giving up the fight to escape the cycle. This is one reason he is so successful. The best writer's write about what they know. Rap is all about that, just like any other poetry. Eminem Rocks!!
to be honest, it isnt true! if you want money there is always a way but if you want to be a bezos oh well..that one takes time or a few years ...with and incredible idea.
This specific song of Eminem's gives me goosebumps every time. I think it shows the diversity not only in his rap but the very feelings we go through in life when we want to succeed but are confronted by our own insecurities.
i was in high school when this came out, it inspired me to chase my dreams no matter the cost. as long as i put my mind to it, i could get anything i wanted. not quite there yet but i'm not stoppin' for nothing. thanks em, for inspiring a generation of disgruntled and frustrated teens to work hard for their dreams.
It's a week from the end of college semester 1. Whenever I'm doing college assignments I listen to Eminem, it's gets me through every assignment. At the present moment I'm just finishing off a 5000 word assignment which I left to the last minute. When I graduate I must thank Eminem!
Young teen i was rocking with Eminem back then i know he all has become... Yes he keep written... No Myki Phiffer😂 ... the only opportunity I got to go.... Love you Em for back then to present
i have to admit i was never an eminem fan, but i LOVE this song!! the one thing i like about eminem, unlike other rappers, he actually writes about something, about issues, about life. other rappers have three topics, money, women, and sex. heads up to eminem for going back to the early days of rap and speaking about true issues!

LOVE HIM !
i have to admit i was never an eminem fan, but i LOVE this song!!
the one thing i like about eminem, unlike other rappers, he actually writes about something, about issues, about life.
other rappers have three topics, money, women, and sex.
heads up to eminem for going back to the early days of rap and speaking about true issues!

( sorry for spelling mistakes I am Dutch)
you have no spelling mistakes no worries
Honestly you have better grammar than 95% of the US😬
8 mile was such a fucking good film
In my opinion the best about a rapper trying to get to the top.
Agreed
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?
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 clocks run out, times up, over, blaow
Snap back to reality, ope there goes gravity
Ope, 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, he knows, when he goes back to this mobile home, that's when it's
Back to the lab again, yo, this whole rhapsody
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 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 chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime
You better
His 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 borin', but super stardom's close to post mortem
It only grows harder, only grows hotter
He blows, it's all over, these hoes is all on him
Coast to coast shows, he's known 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 schmo who flows, he nose dove and sold nada
So the soap opera is told and unfolds, I suppose it's old partna, 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 chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime
You better
No more games, I'ma change what you call rage
Tear this motherfuckin' roof off like two 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 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 'cause man, these goddamn food stamps don't buy diapers
And its no movie, there's no Mekhi Phifer
This is my life and these times are so hard
And it's getting even harder tryna feed and water my seed, plus
Teeter totter, caught up between bein' a father and a prima donna
Baby mama drama, screamin' on her, too much
For me to wanna stay in one spot, another day of monotony's
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 motherfuckin' 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, this may be the only opportunity that I got
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 chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime
You better
You can do anything you set your mind to, man
Thank you I love to sing it while listening and you know it's hard even with the lyrics here haha
