Lose Yourself

Edited (Clean) Version of Lose Yourself By Eminem

Author’s Note: This piece explains the meaning of the song: Lose Yourself (edited) By Eminem

Look, if you had, one shot, or one opportunity                         
To seize everything you ever wanted-One moment
Would you capture it, or just let it slip?

Eminem always says his message or point of singing this song in the beginning of it. Right now he asks you if you have the preparation, and focus to achieve greatness in one opportunity. He tells you that in order for you to own  it, you must  lose all sense of the surrounding world in and literally lose yourself in this one moment……

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 forgetting
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 clock's run out, time's up, over bloah

Eminem talks about what it is like to “Choke” or forget your lyrics, and now he goes on to tell you how important it is that you lose yourself in the moment and focus, so you don’t miss your only chance at success.

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 city ropes
It don't matter, he's dope
He knows that, but he's broke
He's so stacked that he knows
When he goes back to his mobile home, that's when it's
Back to the lab again yo
This whole rhapsodyBetter go capture this moment and hope it don't pass him

Eminem now says that if you don’t capture the moment and fail, that you must not give up, and just start fighting again. He also strives AGAIN to drive the point that you can’t let the moment end.

[Chorus:]
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,

He now strives yet AGAIN!!!! To tell you that this opportunity comes only once in a lifetime, and that you must lose yourself in the moment…….
