JAY-Z Run This Town Lyrics (feat. Rihanna & Kanye West)
Feel it comin’ in the air
Hear the screams from everywhere
I’m addicted to the thrill
It’s a dangerous love affair
Can’t be scared when it goes down
Got a problem, tell me now
Only thing that’s on my mind
Is, who’s gonna run this town tonight?
Is, who’s gonna run this town tonight?
We gonna run this town
We are, yeah I said it, we are
This is Roc Nation, pledge your allegiance
Get y’all fatigues on
All black everything, black cards, black cars
All black everything, and our girls are blackbirds
Ridin’ with they Dillingers
I’d get more in depth if you boys really real enough
This is La Familia, I’ll explain later
But for now let me get back to this paper
I’ma couple bands down and I’m trying to get back
I gave Doug a grip, I lost a flip for five stacks
Yeah, I’m talkin’ five commas, six zeros, dot zero, here Doug
Back to runnin’ circles ’round n*****
Now we squared up, hold up
Life’s a game, but it’s not fair
I break the rules so I don’t care
So I keep doin’ my own thing
Walkin’ tall against the rain
Victory’s within the mile
Almost there, don’t give up now
Only thing that’s on my mind
Is who’s gonna run this town tonight?
Hey-ey-ey-ey-ey-ey
Hey, hey
Hey-ey-ey-ey-ey-ey
Who’s gonna run this town tonight? (Hey-ey-ey-ey)
We are, yeah I said it, we are
You can call me Caesar, in a dark C-zar
Please follow the leader, so Eric B, we are
Microphone fiend, it’s the return of the God, peace God
And ain’t nobody fresher, I’m in Maison, uh, Martin Margiela
On the table screamin’ fuck the other side, they jealous
We got a banquette full of broads, they gotta table full of fellas
Yeah, and they ain’t spendin’ no cake
They should throw they hand in ’cause they ain’t got no spades
Yeah, my whole team got dough
So my banquette is lookin’ like Millionaire’s Row, yeah
Life’s a game, but it’s not fair
I break the rules so I don’t care
So I keep doin’ my own thing
Walkin’ tall against the rain
Victory’s within the mile
Almost there, don’t give up now
Only thing that’s on my mind
Is, who’s gonna run this town tonight?
Hey-ey-ey-ey-ey-ey
Hey, hey
Hey-ey-ey-ey-ey-ey
Who’s gonna run this town tonight?
It’s crazy how you can go from bein’ Joe Blow
To everybody on your dick, no homo
I bought my whole family whips, no Volvos
Next time I’m in church, please no photos
Police escorts, everybody passports
This the life that everybody ask for
This a fast life, we are on a crash course
What you think I rap for, to push a fuckin’ RAV4
But I know that if I stay stunting
All these girls only gonna want one thing
I could spend my whole life, Good Will Hunting
Only good gon’ come is as good when I’m coming
She got an ass that’ll swallow up a g-string
And up top, uh, two bee stings
And I’m beasting, off the Riesling
And my n**** just made it out the precinct
We give a damn about the drama that you do bring
I’m just tryin’ to change the color on your mood ring
Reebok, baby, you need to try some new things
Have you ever had shoes without shoestrings?
What’s that Ye?
Baby, these heels, is that a May, what
Baby, these wheels
You trippin’ when you ain’t sippin’, have a refill
You feelin’ like you runnin’, huh
Now you know how we feel
Hey-ey-ey-ey-ey-ey
Hey, hey
Hey-ey-ey-ey-ey-ey
Hey-ey-ey, hey
Hey-ey-ey-ey-ey-yeah
Hey-ey-ey-yeah
Hey-ey-ey-ey-ey-ey
We gonna run this town tonight
What’s up?
