Moments

(Intro)

Look

Everyone has their moments

Where you can win it all

Be the king of 'em all

So when your moment comes, You gonna give it your all?

Or just let it slip

 

(Verse 1)

Her heads heavy, filled the bars she wrote

She picks up the mic', she looks ready, but she's not

She gets up on the stage, tryna stay steady, no

She ain't ready, She ain't steady, the beat starts

The crowd goes loud, her opponents armed now

She tries to speak, but shit won't come out

It's over now, she's blown it, how?

 

(Verse 2)

Start back at the beginning, but she can't

But she won't give up, not yet, nope

'Cause she's got hope for something to change in her life

Hoping to be something more than another side hoe

'Cause she knows, she's got bars that are gold

If only she could get a hold, ain't gonna grow old

Knowing she coulda put on a show, but lost the moment, oh

 

(Chorus)x2

You gotta grasp the moment, you gotta take the chance and own it

'Cause when the moment comes, it ain't gonna come again

So you better make sure that you ain't gonna blow it

And if you do, you're gonna know it

 

(Verse 3)

Man, I gotta keep on writing bars, 'cause it's what keeps my mind

Off of the life that I do not want, man, I cannot keep on missing

Out on these chances, to blow up, to show what I've got

Man, for sure, I cannot, go home without some dough

 

(Chorus)x2

You gotta grasp the moment, you gotta take the chance and own it

'Cause when the moment comes, it ain't gonna come again

So you better make sure that you ain't gonna blow it

And if you do, you're gonna know it

 

(Verse 4)

She's desperate, she's got so many emotions, and bars

That's the only way that she express her self, man she ain't got no wealth

Got a daughter who's twelve, she's just tryna survive, bein' herself

She knows she's got the stuff, but so much of it is still on the shelf

But now she's loaded, the poet's got shells in the twelve gauge

She's so heated from the life she's living, she's full of rage

And now, she's out of the cage, she's just a teenage spitter

So when she goes home, she writes, and repeats her lesson sayin'

 

(Chorus)x2

You gotta grasp the moment, you gotta take the chance and own it

'Cause when the moment comes, it ain't gonna come again

So you better make sure that you ain't gonna blow it

And if you do, you're gonna know it

 

(Verse 5)

She's livin' in a world that's gone crazy, but maybe she can be

The next shady, but her sights so hazy, the weathers so rainy

She's not gonna stay inside for safety, 'cause lately

She's been going crazy, all those bars cooped up on a page

But she keeps on writing, ain't now way that she's gonna disengage

Who she once was is gone, like Doctor Strange, after the wreck

It's time to change, so she writes so much, while workin 9-5

And night she goes to the club, and takes the mic, all those bars

They came from her heart, and now she's got a chance to take a shot

So she does, and the bars come out so hot, failure is not what she wants

So she gives it all she's got and spits sayin'

 

(Chorus)x4

You gotta grasp the moment, you gotta take the chance and own it

'Cause when the moment comes, it ain't gonna come again

So you better make sure that you ain't gonna blow it

And if you do, you're gonna know it

 

(Outro)

When those moments come, you better give them all you've got

'Cause if you really want it, you'll do what it takes
