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?

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 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 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 [censored]
He better go capture this moment and hope it don't pass him

[Hook!Oo=
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 mortem
It only grows harder, only grows hotter
He blows us 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
His 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 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 yo

No more games, I'ma change what you call rage
Tear this mutha*BLEEP*in 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
See dishonor caught up between being 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 motha*REPRESSION* 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 cuz maybe 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 yo

You can do anything you set your mind to, man [PC EDIT] or woman [/PCE]

This discussion has been on the forum before.

My own opinion is that the phrase was a result of the Japanese instructors coming over to the West without being able to speak enough English to convey their thoughts properly.

I believe what they meant was, to put everything you have into an attack.

lol...wow and the lyrics made it past the censors. wait a sec...I *AM* the censor.

Ed, I think you need to go back on your medication...

One lunch, one pill.

Have you heard the one about the two hunters 'way back of a farmer's field? One has a heart attack. The other drops him across the farmer's electric fence and the shock gets his heart beating again.

Probably an urban legend.

Yes.

Okay... This is my first post so I may mess this up... Anyway, I would like to say that I agree with the "one punch, one kill" theory. Though it would need to be applied through pressure points with power and accuracy.

First off boxers and UFC guys shouldn't count. They are not fighting for survival, they are fighting for a paycheck or because they just like to. So the seriousness is gone. Also, they wear gloves which will take away from the force to the pressure points.

Which brings me to my theory. If pressure points are 1 AU by 1 AU (which is the thickness of your index finger) then power to them would be diffused by hitting them with a larger object, i.e. a fist in a boxing glove. If you punch someone with, say, 40 lbs of force to a pressure point with your knuckle (or eye of the phoenix, both appox. 1 AU) it would do 40 lbs of pressure. Now take the same force with a boxing glove. Just say, for the sake of argument, that a boxing gloves area could fit 10 AU. Now you 40 lbs punch just decreased to 4 lbs to that pressure point! This is why I believe that there are no common, everyday death cases in boxing and UFC.

Lay down on the ground and have someone drop a bowling ball from 2ft on the center of your chest... it hurts... bad. But take a .22 cal bullet and shoot it to the same point and it will kill you. Speed, power and accuracy in a strike to the right pressure point will kill in one punch.

There are pressure points that if struck the person can be knocked out and die unless they get a revival technique. Also, points that once activated could kill in days. "One Punch, One Kill" never said anything about a time limit

Not easy, but who said it should be.
