Run This Town

[Intro: Rihanna & Jay Z]

Feel it comin' in the air (Yeah)

Hear the screams from everywhere (Yeah)

I'm addicted to the thrill (I'm ready)

It's a dangerous love affair (What's up? Come on)

Can't be scared when it goes down

Got a problem, tell me now (What's up?)

Only thing that's on my mind (What's up?)

Is who's gon' run this town tonight (Ah, what's up?)

Is who's gon' run this town tonight (Yeah, what's up? Yeah)

We gon' run this town

[Verse 1: Jay Z]

We are, yeah, 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 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 Doug a grip and lost a flip for five stacks

Yeah, I'm talkin' 5 comma, 6 zeros, dot zero, here Doug

Back to runnin' circles round niggas, now we squared up

[Chorus: Rihanna & Jay Z]

Life's a game, but it's not fair (Yeah)

I break the rules, so I don't care (Uh-huh)

So I keep doin' my own thang

Walkin' tall against the rain (What's up?)

Victory's within the mile

Almost there, don't give up now (What's up?)

Only thing that's on my mind (What's up?)

Is who's gon' run this town tonight (Uh, yeah)

Hey, hey, hey, hey (What's up?)

Who's gon' run this town tonight?

[Verse 2: Jay Z]

We are, yeah, I said it: we are

You can call me Caesar in a dark Caesar

Please follow the leader, so Eric B we are

Microphone fiend, this the return of the god

Peace, God, ah ah, it ain't no nobody fresher

I'm in Maison, ah, Martin Margiela

On the table, screamin', "Fuck the other side, they jealous"

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

Yeah, and they ain't spendin' no cake

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

Yeah, my whole team got dough

So my banquette is lookin' like Millionaires' Row

[Chorus: Rihanna]

Life's a game, but it's not fair

I break the rules, so I don't care

So I keep doin' my own thang

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 gon' run this town tonight

Hey, hey, hey, hey

Who's gon' run this town tonight?

[Verse 3: Kanye West & Jay-Z]

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 the 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 gon' want one thing

I can spend my whole life Good Will Hunting

Only good gon' come is this good when I'm cumming

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 your dude 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 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 (What’s up?)

[Outro: Jay Z & Rihanna]

Hey, hey (Yeah, yeah)

Hey, hey (What’s up?)

Hey, hey

Hey, we gon' run this town tonight

What’s up?
