"Lose Yourself" is a song by American rapper Eminem, released on October 28, 2002, and featured on the soundtrack of the 2002 motion picture 8 Mile. "Lose Yourself" was written by Eminem and was composed and produced by Eminem, Jeff Bass, one half of the production duo Bass Brothers, and Luis Resto. The lyrics of "Lose Yourself" clearly outline the background of Eminem's character in 8 Mile, B-Rabbit, with the first verse summing up much of the plot of the movie. "Lose Yourself" was a great success both commercially and critically, reaching the top of many charts. Source

Eminem - Lose Yourself

Lose Yourself Lyrics

[Intro]
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

[Verse 1]
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, 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 old rhapsody
Better go capture this moment and hope it don't pass him

[Chorus]
You better lose yourself in the music
The moment, you own it, you better never let it go (Go)
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime, yo
You better lose yourself in the music
The moment, you own it, you better never let it go (Go)
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime, yo
You better

[Verse 2]
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 boring, but superstardom's
Close to post-mortem, it only grows harder
Homie 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 schmoe who flows
He nose-dove and sold nada, and so the soap opera
Is told, it unfolds, I suppose it's old, partner
But the beat goes on, da-da-dom, da-dom, dah-dah-dah-dah

[Chorus]
You better lose yourself in the music
The moment, you own it, you better never let it go (Go)
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime, yo
You better lose yourself in the music
The moment, you own it, you better never let it go (Go)
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime, yo
You better

[Verse 3]
No more games, I'ma change what you call rage
Tear this motherfuckin' roof off like two dogs caged
I was playin' in the beginning, the mood all changed
I've 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 there's no movie, there's no Mekhi Phifer, this is my life
And these times are so hard, and it's gettin' 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, it's my shot; feet, fail me not
This may be the only opportunity that I got

[Chorus]
You better lose yourself in the music
The moment, you own it, you better never let it go (Go)
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime, yo
You better lose yourself in the music
The moment, you own it, you better never let it go (Go)
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime, yo
You better

[Outro]
You can do anything you set your mind to, man

It's been a long time since I watched the movie 8 Mile and I can say that I liked both the movie and the album. The album wastes no time and my favorite song on the album is "Lose Yourself". Especially the last lyric of the song is inspiring: "You can do anything you set your mind to, man". Absolutely, as long as you want it and struggle, you will eventually do anything you set your mind to.

Also, the opening lines are genius and the song is inspirational and its aggressive themes are pretty good. In short, Eminem's rapping ability, the lyrics and production are truly amazing. "Lose Yourself" is one of Eminem's best songs and also one of the greatest hip hop songs of all time. Even though it was released 22 years ago, I still listen to it and hear it in some places, and it still remains one of the works that will never get old. It has also been covered by some artists, including Taylor Swift. Eminem has performed "Lose Yourself" at some award ceremonies, most recently at the 92nd Academy Awards on February 9, 2020, and at the Super Bowl LVI halftime show on February 13, 2022. It's amazing that "Lose Yourself" is still sung at award ceremonies.

@henruc

It's a true masterclass in hip-hop songwriting and performance, and in my opinion, one of the defining rap songs of the 21st century.

Congratulations @imfarhad! Count me in for another round, please! Thank you so very much!

Honestly I'm really not into Eminim's vibe or music, but I can still certainly appreciate his notable skill. *Lose Yourself" does have a great beat sound, and I appreciate it more than most of his music. 😁🙏💚✨🤙
