[Chorus]

It's once... in a lifetime

Chance for the right time

Stands still for no man

It's once... in a blue moon

Plans for the heights soon

We about to be there fam

It's once... in a while

That you hear a new style

That can make the people say goddamn

It's just once, once, once, once, once, once...

It's once... in a lifetime

Chance for the right time

Stands still for no man

It's once... in a blue moon

Plans for the heights soon

We about to be there fam

It's once... in a while

That you hear a new style

That can make the people say goddamn

It's just once, once, once, once, once, once...


[Verse 1: Mojo]

Violence closes eyelids

While I choose to widen the pupils in the places where I live

July's give reasons for the works of fire

Shit'll be getting taxed like it's work for hire

Now why you grabbing for the live wire?

It's still sizzling

Champagne filling your glass

You're still fizzling out

You're dissonant

There's a lot of niggas get in the game that listen in

But they're playing pretend

I'm sensing it, they're sensitive

And something seems a little familiar about their sentences

Consensus is they sent to give the motivation

To the real niggas trying to live through frustration

Stations have to play this loud and often

Impatient listeners get amped and call in


[Chorus]

It's once... in a lifetime

Chance for the right time

Stands still for no man

It's once... in a blue moon

Plans for the heights soon

We about to be there fam

It's once... in a while

That you hear a new style

That can make the people say goddamn

It's just once, once, once, once, once, once...


[Verse 2: Mas D]

See I could still act irrational

Somewhere between bullshittin' and being bashful

When I'm an asshole with no cash flow

Don't worry I won't ask your permission

With one word you change your position

Bitch rappers, you're switch hittin'

I'm holdin the coals

As I stroll in the cold with no mittens

You're bold with your bitchin'

Niggas want to step free

I already let your bitch in

See some like it hot

And so I cool in the kitchen

You like a fool fishing

I'm a mule on a mission

Trying to high dive but you in the pool pissin

You hungry for subtraction (Cool)

I'm cheffin' a dishin'


[Chorus]

It's once... in a lifetime

Chance for the right time

Stands still for no man

It's once... in a blue moon

Plans for the heights soon

We about to be there fam

It's once... in a while

That you hear a new style

That can make the people say goddamn

It's just once, once, once, once, once, once...


[Verse 3: Rheturik]

A simple singularity

You couldn't measure the heat in calories

A rarity for words

To be heard with cleaner clarity

Hip-hop's decayed to the point that MCing's almost embarrassing

(We don't settle)

We mine for the metal to fill your cavity

And have it be worth

More than a skirt and plate of surf & turf

We unearth verse that shocks your spirit like a curse in church

It hurts the worst if you front on or turn your back to it

So don't do it

Fuck, drink your drinks, or count your stacks to it

Pound the keys on your Mac to it

Or smoke your sack to it

It's versatile

We conceal ill terms up in the rap fluid

No lack of prudence performing them tough stunts

Staying focused even when we puff blunts

You dumb dunce


[Chorus]

It's once... in a lifetime

Chance for the right time

Stands still for no man

It's once... in a blue moon

Plans for the heights soon

We about to be there fam

It's once... in a while

That you hear a new style

That can make the people say goddamn

It's just once, once, once, once, once, once...

It's once... in a lifetime

Chance for the right time

Stands still for no man

It's once... in a blue moon

Plans for the heights soon

We about to be there fam

It's once... in a while

That you hear a new style

That can make the people say goddamn

It's just once, once, once, once, once, once...
