Más te vale ensimismarte en la música, el momento


Explanation:
Lose oneself quiere decir exactamente "ensimismarse en algo", sin embargo, creo que suena un poco forzado "ensimismarte en la música". Ahora que ya comprendemos el sentido del original, podemos utilizar expresiones que suenen más idiomáticas, como, por ejemplo, "sumérgete en la música". Espero que te sirva de ayuda. JOse.

It's an Eminem song.
In order to translate it you need to know what the lyrics are talking about.
He is talking about his one shot at proving he is just as good as the rest and his struggle to get to the top.
He felt like he only had one chance in a lifetime to prove what he could do. He's talking about the nervous feeling before going out on stage to perform. do it right the first time. there's no room for mistakes but just relax and do what comes naturally.
He's talking to himself

Déjate llevar por la música, y el momento.
es tuyo.
nunca lo debes dejar ir
La oportunidad sólo se presenta una vez en la vida para demostrar lo que puedes hacer.

IT's a cool song.

Es mejor perderse en la música, en el momento,


Explanation:
Here is an alternate reading and punctuation:

Es Mejor perderse en la música,
En el momento que sea tuya,
no la dejes ir!
No hay mañana, solo tienes una oportunidad de tocar (asumiendo que el blow aqui es el blow de los musicos que tocan instrumentos de viento)
Esta oportunidad es única en la vida!
