Lyrics
Look, if you had one shot or one opportunity
– Vide, si unum iactum vel unam occasionem habuisti
To seize everything you ever wanted in one moment
– Carpe omnia quae umquam uno momento voluisti
Would you capture it or just let it slip?
– Vis eam capere vel iustus labi?
Yo
– Io
His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy
– Palmae eius aestuosi sunt, genua debilia, bracchia gravia
There’s vomit on his sweater already, mom’s spaghetti
– Illic ‘ iam thoracem laneum suum vomitum, mom scriptor spaghetti
He’s nervous, but on the surface, he looks calm and ready
– Timidus est, sed in superficie placidus et paratus spectat
To drop bombs, but he keeps on forgetting
– Bombas stillare, sed oblitus servat
What he wrote down, the whole crowd goes so loud
– Quod scripsit, tota turba tam magna accedit
He opens his mouth, but the words won’t come out
– Os suum aperit, sed verba non exibunt
He’s chokin’, how? Everybody’s jokin’ now
– Chokin est’, quomodo? Omnes iocin ‘ nunc
The clock’s run out, time’s up, over, blaow
– Horologium currit, tempus sursum, super, flare
Snap back to reality, ope, there goes gravity
– Snap ad rem, ope, ibi gravitas accedit
Ope, there goes Rabbit, he choked, he’s so mad
– Ope, ibi lepus accedit, suffocavit, tam insanus est
But he won’t give up that easy, no, he won’t have it
– Sed non dabit illud facile, nullum, non habebit
He knows his whole back’s to these ropes, it don’t matter
– Totam dorsum his funibus novit, non refert
He’s dope, he knows that, but he’s broke, he’s so stagnant
– Ipse est dope, qui scit, sed suus ‘ fregit, et ipse est stagnans
He knows when he goes back to this mobile home, that’s when it’s
– Scit cum ad hanc domum mobilem revertitur, id est cum suus
Back to the lab again, yo, this old rhapsody
– Voluptas ad lab repellat, esse repellat rhamnusium se
Better go capture this moment and hope it don’t pass him
– Melius est hoc momentum capere et sperare eum non praeterire
You better lose yourself in the music
– Es increíble que él pierda el tren
The moment, you own it, you better never let it go (Go)
– Et nunc, vos possidebunt eam: tu melius numquam dimittet eam (Ire)
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
– Vos tantum adepto unum iaculat, non fallunt casu tuo ut succendam
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime, yo
– Haec occasio semel in vita venit, io
You better lose yourself in the music
– Es increíble que él pierda el tren
The moment, you own it, you better never let it go (Go)
– Et nunc, vos possidebunt eam: tu melius numquam dimittet eam (Ire)

– Tu melius
His soul’s escaping through this hole that is gaping
– In his est et illud de perseverantia, de qua disputamus.
This world is mine for the taking, make me king
– Hic est mons meus ad captivitatem, fac me regem
As we move toward a new world order
– Sicut ad novum mundum ordinem movemur
A normal life is boring, but superstardom’s
– A normalis vitae sit amet, sed superstardom scriptor
Close to post-mortem, it only grows harder
– Proxima post mortem, solum durius crescit
Homie grows hotter, he blows, it’s all over
– Homie adolescit calidior, et spirat, suus ‘ super omnes
These hoes is all on him, coast-to-coast shows
– Haec omnia in eo sunt, oram-ad-litus ostendit
He’s known as the Globetrotter, lonely roads
– Ipse Suus ut Notum Globetrotter, sola viae
God only knows he’s grown farther from home, he’s no father
– Solus deus scit se longius a domo crevisse, non est pater
He goes home and barely knows his own daughter
– Domum it et vix filiam suam novit
But hold your nose ’cause here goes the cold water
– Sed nasum tene causam hic accedit aqua frigida
These hoes don’t want him no mo’, he’s cold product
– Haec hoes nolo eum non mo’, ipse est frigus productum
They moved on to the next schmoe who flows
– Fugiat eos qui voluptas
He nose-dove and sold nada, and so the soap opera
– Nasum columba et nada vendidit, et sic saponem opera
Is told, it unfolds, I suppose it’s old, partner
– Et dixit: si in aliquo dubitaveritis, senex est, particeps
But the beat goes on, da-da-dom, da-dom, dah-dah-dah-dah
– Sed pulsu sequitur da-dom, dah-dah-dah-dah
You better lose yourself in the music

No more games, I’ma change what you call rage
– Non magis ludos, im ‘ ira mutare quod vocant
Tear this motherfuckin’ roof off like two dogs caged
– Deserunt esse debitis’ tectum off sicut duo canes inclusi
I was playin’ in the beginning, the mood all changed
– Ego fui ludens ‘ in principio, modus omnes mutatur
I’ve been chewed up and spit out and booed off stage
– Ego iam defecerat hujuscemodi cibus et exspue et off scaena boed
But I kept rhymin’ and stepped right in the next cypher
– Sed rhyminum servavi et in proximo cyphro iit rectum
Best believe somebody’s payin’ the Pied Piper
– Quis est scriptor optimus credere payin ‘ vitium Piperis
All the pain inside amplified by the

Baby-mama drama, screamin’ on her, too much for me to wanna

Stay in one spot, another day of monotony’s gotten me
