Capo 3


                    
 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'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 zero here it go
                             
Back to runnin' circles 'round niggas now we squared up

Hold up


Chorus:
                          
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
                      
Heeeey hey hey hey hey hey
               
Hey hey hey hey hey
                      
Heeeey hey hey hey hey hey
                              
Is who's gonna run this town tonight (Hey hey hey hey)


                    
We are yeah I said it we are
                              
You can call me Cesar in a dark Czar
                                  
Please follow the leader so Eric B. we are
                                  
Microphone fiend it's the return of thee God peace God
         
 Ah ah and ain't nobody fresher
              
I'm in mason ah Martin Margiela
                                         
On the tape we're screamin' fuck the other side, they jealous
                                          
We got a bankhead 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 millionaire's 'fro (yeah)


Chorus


                      
 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 gonna want one thing
                          
I could spend my whole life good will hunting
                        
Only good gon' come is as good when I'm cumming
                    
She got a ass that'll swallow up a g-string
               
And up top, unh,   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 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)
