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
The only thing that's on my mind
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 your fatigues on, all black everything
Black cards, black cars, all black everything

And our girls are blackbirds ridin' with they Dillinger
I'd get more in depth if you boys really real enough
This is La Familia, I'll explain later
But for now I'ma get back to this paper

I'm a couple Ben's down and I'm tryin' to get back
I'ma give y'all a 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 *****es 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
The only thing that's on my mind
Is who gonna run this town tonight

Oh, hey, hey, hey, hey
Who's gonna run this town tonight?

We are, yeah, I said it, we are
You can call me Cesar, in a dark CSAR
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 Mason
Martin Margiela on the tape we're screamin'
***k the other side, they jealous
We got a banquette full the 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's got dough
My banquette is lookin' like Millionaire's Row

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
The only thing that's on my mind
Is who's gonna run this town tonight

Hey, hey, hey, hey
Who gonna run this town tonight?

It's crazy how you can go from being Joe Blow
To everybody trying to get it, no ****
This is my salute to 'Ye, I'll be runnin' this town tonight
'Cause I slept all day

This the life that everybody ask for
Welcome to the fast lane, forward for a crash course

We give a damn about the drama that you do bring
On the grind, all the time, be like T-Pain
Who's gonna run this town tonight?
(Who's gonna run this town tonight?)
It's just who asked without me

Hey, hey, hey, hey
We gonna run this town tonight
We gonna run this town tonight
We gonna run this town tonight
