Run This Town Lyrics - The Blueprint 3 - Jay-z

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, ya I said it, we are 

This is Roc Nation, pledge your allegiance 

Get your 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'm a couple bands down, and I'm tryin' to get back 

I gave the other grip, I lost a flip for five stacks 

Yeah I'm talkin' five comma, six zeros, dot zeros, here it go 

Back to runnin' circles 'round niggas, 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, hey 

Hey, hey 

(Is who's gonna run this town tonight) 

We are, ya, I said it, we are 

You can call me Caesar in a dark CSAR 

Please follow the leader, so Eric B. we are 

Microphone fiend, it's the return of the god, peace god 

Uh, uh, and ain't nobody fresher 

I'm in Mason, uh, Martin Margiela 

On the table screamin' fuck the other side, they jealous 

We got a banquet full of broads, they got a table full of fellas 

And they ain't spending no cake 

They should throw they hand in, 'cause they ain't got no spades 

My whole team got dough 

So my Bankhead is lookin' like millionaires' 'fro 

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, hey 

Hey, hey 

(Is who's gonna run this town tonight) 

It's crazy how you can go from being 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 fucking Rav-4? 

But I know that if I stay stunting 

All these girls only gon' 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 a ass that'll swallow up a g-string 

And up top, uh, two bee stings 

And I'm beasting off the riesling 

And my nigga 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 drop some new things 

Have you ever had shoes without shoe strings? 

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 

Wassup! 

Hey, hey, hey, hey 

Wassup! 

Hey, hey, hey 

We gonna run this town tonight 

Wassup!
