The End

Look, if you had one shot or one opportunity to seize everything you ever wanted in one moment that you captured,
3
just let it slip.
4
Yo.
5
He's calm and ready to drop bombs
6
But he keeps on forgetting what he wrote down The whole crowd goes
7
so loud He opens his mouth but the words won't come out He's choking how?
8
Everybody's choking now The clocks run out, time's up, over, plow!
9
Snap back to reality, oh, there goes gravity, oh, there goes rabbit, he choke!
10
He's so mad but he won't give up that, he's he know he won't have it, he knows his whole backs of these ropes, it don't matter, he's dope, he knows that but he's broke,
11
he's so stagnant he knows when he goes down, he's 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 choking how?
12
Everybody's choking now, everybody's choking now, the clocks run out, the clocks run out, time's up, over, plow!
13
Snap back to reality, oh, there goes gravity, oh, there goes gravity, oh, there goes gravity, oh, there goes rabbit, he choke, he's so mad but he choke, he's so mad but he won't give up that, he's he know, he won't have it, he knows his whole backs of these ropes, he knows his whole backs of these ropes, it don't matter, he's dope, he knows that but he's broke, he knows that but he's broke, he's so stagnant, he knows that but 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 me Use yourself in the music,
14
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,
15
you're in a room Use yourself in the music, the moment you own it, you better never let it go You only get one shot,
16
do not miss your chance to blow Reserves escaping,
17
through this hole that is taping This world is mine for the taking, make me king!
18
As we move toward her, new world order Our normal life is boring, but superstardom's close to post -mortem It only grows harder,
19
homie grows hotter He blows us all over, these hoses all on him Coast to coast shows he's known
20
as the Globetrotter Lonely roads God only knows he's grown farther From home he's no father He goes home
21
and barely knows his own daughter But hold your nose cause here goes the coast of the world
22
These hoes don't want him no more, he's co -product They moved on to the next move who flows, he knows dove and sold nada And sold the soap operas, told it unfolds, I suppose it's old partner But the beat goes on, da da da, don't let em ride You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow This opportunity comes once in a lifetime, do it!
23
No more games, I'ma change what you call rage Tear this motherfuckin' roof off like two dogs caged I was playing in the beginning, the mood all changed I've been chewed up and spit out
24
and booed off stage But I kept rhyming
25
and stepped right in the next cypher Best believe somebody's paying
26
the pod piper All the pain inside amplified by the fact that I can't get by with my ninder
27
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,
28
there's no Mekhi Pfeiffer This is my life, and these times are so hard
29
And it's getting even harder tryna feed the water my seed
30
plus See the thought I caught up between being a father
31
and a prima donna Baby mama drama streaming on it Too
32
much for me to wanna stand one spot Another damn monotonny's
33
gotten me to the point I'm like a snail I've got to formulate a plot
34
Or end up in jail or shot Success is my only motherfucking option, failure's not Mama love you but this trail has got to go I cannot grow old
35
and Salem's lot So here I go, it's my shot, feet fail me not This may be the only opportunity
36
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,
37
do not miss your chance to blow This opportunity comes once in a lifetime You better lose yourself in the music
38
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow This opportunity comes once in a lifetime, you better!
39
Bye.
40
you

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?

Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
