based on 'Loose Yourself' by Eminem 
———

Look, if you had one tachlis, one opportunity,
To learn any tosfos you ever wanted, one sugia
Would you capture it, or just let it slip?…
——–

Yo.. His payis are sweaty, vision weak, shtender is heavy
he learned this tosfos so many times already,
Daf Yud in the Bavli —
He's nervous but on the surface he looks shtark and ready
For the Bechina, but he just keeps on forgetting.
The vort he wrote down, the whole shiur goes so loud
He's opens his mouth, but the words wont come out, he's chazering now,
everybody in shiur is bataling now,
The clocks run out, time's up, shiur's over – blough!                                     

Chazer back to reality oh! oh there goes Shana-B
Oh there goes Dovid, he choked, He's so sad,
but he wont give up to the Yezter Hara that easy,
no he wont have any,
he knows his whole back's sweating to his tzitzit ropes
It don't matter, he's hopes, he knows that
but he's a frum dope,
He's so stacked that he knows when he goes home its back to
The gemora again, its time to go grab your pen, 
back to the shatnez lab again         
This whole tefiilin wrapsody, better go capture this moment
And hope his shtender don't collapse on him……..

[Chorus]       
You better lose yourself in the Gemora
the Tosfos the Rashi you better never let it go, Nu!
You only got p'shat do not miss your chance to blow
this opportunity for Daf yomi comes once a lifetime      

The shiur is escaping, through my head that is gaping,
Briska rav and the Marsha is so complicating.     
Make me shtark, 
as we move toward a, new square order,                 
A non-torah life is boring, but being "chashuv" is close to post-mortem,              
it only grows harder, if you really wanna,               
If he fails, its all over, talmidim are all on him,               
Yeshiva to Yeshiva he's known as Harav Davis Golana,               
Lonely roads of faith, hashem only knows he's grown towards torah,       
his old friends don't know him no more.
But hold ya nose cuz here goes the cold nagel-vaser water
These shmoes don't want him no mo', he's called brainwased
They moved on to the next shmo who flows
Who nose dove into shiur and knew nada
And so the so proper
His toll, it unfolds and I suppose it's old, partner
But the daf goes on
Duh duh doe, duh doe, dah dah dah dah

[Chorus]
You better lose yourself in the Gemora
the Tosfos the Rashi you better never let it go, Nu!
You only got p'shat do not miss your chance to blow
this opportunity for Daf yomi comes once a lifetime

No more games, I'ma change for miselas yisharim says
Tear this mother-goyish mindset off like two dogs caged
I was playin' in the beginnin', the mood all changed
I've been chewed up and spit out and baal teshuva named

But I kept learning' and stepped writin' the next sefer
Best believe somebody's payin' the Aymishter
All the guilt inside amplified by the
Fact that I can't get by with my nine to five then night seder
And I can't provide the right type of life for my family
Cuz, man, these Goldman Saks jobs can't buy gan edens
And there's no movie, there's no Paul Pfieffer
This is my life and these times in golus are so hard
And it's gettin' even harder tryin' to be an eved hashem
Caught up between bein' a bochur and a pre-marrried baal ha-buster
Baby momma drama, screamin' on her
Too much for me to wanna stay in one spot
Another yeshiva or not has gotten me to the point
I'm like an Israeli general, I've got, to formulate a plot
Or end up in Teaneck or Passiac
Success is my only Derech Hashem option, failure's not
Momma love you but this Cable TV's got to go
I cannot grow old in the Yetzer Hora's Lot
So here I go, it's my p'shat
Hashem fail me not
This may be the only opportunity that I got

You better lose yourself in the Gemora
the Tosfos the Rashi you better never let it go, Nu!
You only got p'shat do not miss your chance to blow
this opportunity for Daf yomi comes once a lifetime
