Não jogue fora as oportunidades
Para ser mais idiomático
I don't know the music you cite but the phrase might be okay. When the Supreme Being (God) or Kismet (fate) deals you a hand you have to play the cards to the best of your ability. Don't blow your hand, or hands, means to not ruin the chances you have...to make the right decisions
