Lose Yourself (My Personal Fave!)

Look, if you had one shot, one opportunity
To seize everything you ever wanted…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 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!
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
Is he? No
He won’t have it, he knows his whole back city’s 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 rap shit
He better go capture this moment and hope it don’t pass him

Chorus X2

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 yo

The soul’s escaping, through this hole that it’s 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 superstardom’s close to post mortar
It only grows harder, only grows hotter
He blows its 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 cuz here goes the cold water
These ho's 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 potna, but the beat goes on
Da da dum da dum da da

Chorus X2

No more games, I’ma change what you call rage
Tear this mothafuckin roof off like 2 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 stepwritin 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 9 to 5
And I can’t provide the right type of life for my family
Cuz man, these goddam 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
Tryin to feed and water my seed, plus
Teeter totter, caught up between bein a father and a prima donna
Baby mama drama’s screamin 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 fore I end up in jail or shot
Success is my only mothafuckin option, failure’s not
Mom, I love you, but this trailer has got to go
I cannot grow old in Salem’s lot
So here I go is my shot.
Feet fail me not cuz maybe the only opportunity that I got

Chorus X2

You can do anything you set your mind to, man

-Eminem

Someday We'll Know

Ninety miles outside Chicago
I can't stop driving I don't know why
So many questions, I need an answer
Two years later, you're still on my mind

Whatever happened to Amelia Earhart
Who holds the stars up in the sky
Is true love is just once in a lifetime?
Did the captain of the Titanic cry?

Someday we'll know
If love can move a mountain
Someday we'll know
Why the sky is blue
Someday we'll know why I wasn't meant for you

Does anybody know the way to Atlantis?
What the wind says when she comes
I'm speeding by the place that I met you
For the ninety-seventh time, tonight

Someday we'll know
If love can move a mountain
Someday we'll know
Why the sky is blue
Someday we'll know
Why I wasn't meant for you
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Someday we'll know
Why Samson loved Delilah
One day I'll go
Dancing on the moon
Someday you'll know that I was the one for you

I'll by a ticket to the end of the rainbow
Watch the stars crash in the sea
If I could ask God just one question
Why aren't you here with me, tonight?

Someday we'll know
If love can move a mountain
Someday we'll know
Why the sky is blue
Someday we'll know why I wasn't meant for you
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

-Mandy Moore and Jonathan Foreman

Dirty

Dirty
Filthy
Nasty
Too dirty to clean my act up
If you ain't dirty... you ain't here to party!

Ladies move, gentlemen move
Somebody ring the alarm
A fire on the roof
Ring the alarm (And I'm throwin elbows)
I said ring the alarm (And I'm throwin elbows)
Ring the alarm (And I'm throwin elbows)

Ooh, I'm overdue
Gimme some room, I'm comin' through
Paid my dues, I'm in the mood
Me and my girls gonna shake the room
DJ's spinnin (show your hands)
And let's get dirty (that's my jam)
I need that ... to get me off
Sweatin' till my clothes come off

It's explosive, speakers are thumpin'
Still jumpin', 6 in the morning
Table dancin', glasses are crashin'
No question, time for some action!

Temperature's up (Can you feel it?)
'Bout to erupt (so get)
Gonna get my girls
Get your boys
Gonna make some noise...

Gonna get rowdy
Gonna get a little unruly
Get it fired up in a hurry
Wanna get dirty
It's about time that I came to start the party
Sweat drippin' over my body
Dancin' gettin' just a little naughty
Wanna get dirty
It's about time for my arrival

Ahh, heat is up
So ladies, fellas, drop your cups
Body's hot from front to back
Move your ass, I like that

Tight hip huggers (low fo' sho')
Shake a little somethin' (On the floor)
I need that ... to get me off
Sweatin' till my clothes come off

Let's get open, cause a commotion
We're still goin', 8 in the morning
There's no stoppin', we keep it poppin'
Hard rockin', everyone's talkin'

Be all you got (give it to me)
Just hit the spot
Gonna get my girls
Get your boys
Gonna make some noise...

Rowdy
Gonna get a little unruly
Get it fired up in a hurry
Wanna get dirty
It's about time that I came to start the party
Sweat drippin' over my body
Dancin' gettin' just a little naughty
Wanna get dirty
It's about time for my arrival

Here it comes
It's the one you been waitin' on
Get up, get it up
Yo, that's what's up
Givin' just what you want to the maximum
Uh oh
Here we go

You can tell when the music starts to drop
That's when we take it to the parking lot
And I betcha somebody's gonna call the cops
Uh oh's, here we go's
Ohh... yeahh...

Gonna get rowdy
Gonna get a little unruly
Get it fired up in a hurry
Wanna get dirty
It's about time that I came to start the party
Sweat drippin' over my body
Dancin' gettin' just a little naughty
Wanna get dirty
It's about time for my arrival

Gonna get rowdy
Gonna get a little unruly
Get it fired up in a hurry
Wanna get dirty
It's about time that I came to start the party
Sweat drippin' over my body
Dancin' gettin' just a little naughty
Wanna get dirty
It's about time for my arrival

Wanna get rowdy
Let's get a little unruly
Wanna get dressed in a hurry
Let's get dirty
It's about time that I came to start the party
Let's get a little unruly
Wanna get dressed in a hurry
Let's get dirty
It's about time for my arrival

-Christina Agulaira and Redman

Gollum's Song

Where once was light,

Now darkness falls,

Where once was love, Love is no more,

Don't say goodbye, Don't say I didn't try,

Theses tears we cry are falling rain,

For all the lies you told us the hurt, the pain,

And we will weap to be so alone, 

We are lost, We can never go home,

So in the end I wil be what I will be,

No loyal friend was ever there for me,

Now we say goodbye, We say you didn't try,

These tears you cry, Have come to late,

Take back the lies, the hurt, the pain,

And you will weap when you face the end alone,

You are lost, you can never go home,

You are lost you can never go home.

Concrete Angel

She goes to school with the lunch she packed,

Nobody knows what she's holding back,

Wearing the same dress she wore yesterday,

She hides the bruises with her linen and lace,

Though the wind and the rain she stands hard as a stone,

In a world that she can rise above,

But her dreams give her wings and she flies to a place where she's loved,

Concrete angel.

The teacher wonders but she doesn't ask,

It's hard to see the pain behind the mask,

Wearing the burden of a secret stone,

Sometimes she wishes she was never born,

Though the wind and the rain she stands hard as a stone,

In a world that she can rise above,

But her dreams give her wings and she flies to a place where she's loved,

Concrete angel.

A lonely cry falls through the cold, dark night,

The neighbors hear but just turn out the light,

A precious soul caught in the hands of fate,

When morning comes it will be too late,

Though the wind and the rain she stands hard as a stone,

In a world that she can rise above,

But her dreams give her wings and she flies to a place where she's loved,

Concrete angel.

A statue stands in a shaded place,

An angel girl with an upturned face,

Her name is written on a polished rock,

A broken heart that the world forgot,

Though the wind and the rain she stands hard as a stone,

In a world that she can rise above,

But her dreams give her wings and she flies to a place where she's loved,

Concrete angel.

TRAVELIN' SOLDIER 

Two days past eighteen, he was waiting for the bus in his army greens,

Sat down in a booth at the cafe there, gave his order to a girl with a bow in her hair,

He's a little shy so she gives him a smile, said would you mind sitten' down for a while and talkin' to me,

I'm feeling a little low,

She said I am off in an hour and I know where we can go,

They sat by the peer he said I bet you got a boyfriend but I don't care,

I got no one to send a letter to.

would you mind if I sent one back here to you,

I-I-I cry, never gonna hold the hand of another guy,

To young and they told her, waiting for the love of a traveling soldier,

My love will never end, waiting for the soldier to some back again,

Never gonna be alone when the letter says, the soldiers coming home,

Well the letters came from a camp in California then Vietnam,

And he told her of his heart and of this place,

He said when its getting' a little rough over here, I think of that day on the peer,

Just close my eyes and see your pretty smile,

Don't worry, I won't be able to write for a while,

I-I-I cry, never gonna hold the hand of another guy,

To young and they told her, waiting for the love of a traveling soldier,

My love will never end, waitin' for the soldier to come back again,

Won't ever be alone when the letter says, the soldiers coming home,

One night at Football game the lords prayer and the anthem played, 

People bow your heads for the list of local, Vietnam dead,

Crying all alone under the stands was a piccolo player from a marching band,

And some guy named Red, But nobody really cares,

Except a pretty little girl with a bow in her hair,

I-I-I cry, never gonna hold the hand of another guy,

To young and they told her, waiting for the love of a traveling soldier,

My love will never end, waitin' for the soldier to come back again,

Won't ever be alone when the letter says, the soldiers coming home.
