Jay-Z ft Kanye West, Rihanna – Run This Town Lyrics
(Rihanna)
Feeling it coming in the air,
hear the screams from everywhere,
I’m addicted to thrill,
Its a dangerous love affair,
Can’t be scared when it goes down,
got a problem tell me now,
Only thing thats on my mind is who gon run this town tonight,
who gon run this town tonite,
We gon run this town!
Wassup
Wassup
(Jay-Z)
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, blacks cars,
all black everything,
and that girls a blackbirds riding with their dillingers,
i get more in depp
if you boys really real enough
This is la Familia, I’ll explain later,
but for now let me get back to this paper,
[lyrics courtesy of killerhiphop.com]
I’m a couple bands down,
and im tryin get back,
I gave doug a grip and lost a flip for five stacks,
me im talking 5 comma, 6 zero’s, dot zero’s, jigga
back to running circles round n-ggas
now we squared up, Hold uuuup
(Rihanna – Chorus)
Life’s a game and but its not fair,
I break the rules so I don’t care,
So i keep doing my own thing,
walking tall against the rain,
victory’s within the mile,
almost there don’t give up now,
only thing thats on my mind is who’s gon run this town tonight,
heeeeey, heeeey, heeeey
who’s gon run this town tonite,
[Jay-Z]
We are,
Yeah I said it we are,
you can call me Ceasar,
in a dark ceasar,
please follow the leader,
So Eric B we are,
Microphone fiend, this the return of The God,
Peace God,
ah ah,
it aint no nobody fresher,
Im in Maison
ah, Martin Margiela
on the table screaming f-ck the other side they jealous,
we got a banquet full of broads,
they got a table full of fella’s,
yeaaaahh, and they aint spending no cake,
they should throw they hand in cos they aint got no spades,
yeah, my whole team got dough,
so my banquet is looking like millionaires row.
yeaaaaah.
[Chorus]
[Kanye West]
Its crazy how you can go from being Joe Blow,
to everybody on your d-ck, no homo,
i bought my whole family whips, no volvo’s
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 f-cking Rav 4,
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 its good when Im cumming,
she got an ass that will swallow up a G-string,
and up top ahh, 2 bee stings,
and im beasting off the Riesling,
and my n-gga just made it out the precinct,
we give a damn bout the drama that your dude bring,
im just tryin change the color on your mood ring,
[lyrics courtesy of killerhiphop.com]
Reebok baby, you need to try some new things,
have you ever had shoes without shoe strings?
whats that Ye? baby these heels,
is that a May… whaaat?
baby these wheels,
you trippin when you aint sippin, have a refill
you feel like you running huh, now you know how we feel,
Wassup (Jay-Z)
[Rihanna]
Heeeeey, heeeey, heeeeey,
we gon run this town tonight,
Wassup (Jay-Z)

Wow, this is one of the best tunes I’ve heard all year. The lyrics from Jay and Kanye are on point and Jay’s flow is crazy.
I think Roc Nation run everything right now. This is going to be a hot single. Jay-Z knows how to sell records!
Please feel free to correct the lyrics. I’m writing them real quick before I jump on a plane. I want these lyrics 100% so hit me up quick.

”Life a game and but its not fair,”
Life’s a game but its not fair , Guess you could see this as a typing error.
”but i know that if stay keep stunting”
But I know that if I stay stunting.
This tune is sick, I’m going to be listening to this a lot.

Here are some corrections—
and that girls a black birds riding with their Dillingers,
i get more than Depp,
it’s a Public Enemies reference
you can call me Caesar,
in a dark caesar,
Pretty sure he isn’t saying caesar twice, but I don’t know what he’s saying in the second line
it aint no nobody fresher,
Im in Maison Martin Margiela
Martin Margiela’s a fashion designer,
and up top ahh, 2 bee stings,
and im beasting off the Riesling,
wine reference
whats that Ye? baby these heels,
is that a May… whaaat?
baby these wheels,
He’s talking about his Maybach.

The line is You Can Call Me Czar (meaning Emperor)
in a dark Caesar (I think he is referring to his haircut)

nahh ja-z killed it………they should put their hands down cuz they dont have no spades woowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
[Reply]
This fucking song is the shit…..i can’t stop playing it
[Reply]
correction its not get your fatigues on.
Its “get your batiste on, all black everything, black cards, black cars, all blck everything”.
in case your wondering what batiste is, it is a fine lightweight OPAQUE fabric made from cotton or polyester, hence “all black everything” fatigues are not black
[Reply]
love this song
i love this port ,,,,,,,,,,,,We are,
yeah I said it we are,
this is Roc Nation,
Pledge your allegiance,
get your fatigues on,
all black everything,
black cards, blacks cars,
all black everything,
and that girls a blackbirds riding with their dillingers

[Reply]
that shit its gon be hit
[Reply]
yeah nigel was rite, it sounds like batiste not fatigues to me, moreover,the word batiste is more suitable too.
[Reply]
This song is fly. Jay always knows how to make a sick beat, he’s a legend. Rihanna has a voice like no other. Kanye’s lyrics are dope but he can’t come up with that shit on freestyle. He’s sick with a pad and pen but Jay is original off the top his head. Jay definitely killed it.
[Reply]
Hmm is it me or the lyric ‘I’m in Maison’ a bit worrying? I guess the illuminati is surely and quickly taking over..the video says it all. But I don’t deny its a tune lol
[Reply]
Life’s a game and but its not fair,
I break the rules so I don’t care,
So i keep doing my own thing,
great
[Reply]
Thanks for the lyrics.
I really like Rihanna’s part. Her lyrics are more interesting than the rappers’ and she succed to put the drama and the mood of the whole song.
[Reply]
this song is the shit who wooden like this songand if you dnt wow thatz sum sheeeeeee ot :}
[Reply]
This track is sick. I liked Kanye better then Jay in this one/ Jay’s was also good though, just think Kanye killed it.
[Reply]
well well…. if u were a famous celebrity u would like to write some shit in the mirror that show two meanings… on the other hand the free masons and Illuminati don’t let everybody in! so a big fuck to all the shit brains…. but as for the song its dope mind blowing tune. i think it will ROCK NATIONS
[Reply]

Barak Obama is a Freemason too…if you search deeper…you will see Barak Obama is also a member of the “Bilderberg Club”

[Reply]
When I first heard this song on the radio, kanye’s opening line was different; it said “it’s crazy how you can go from being Joe Blow to everybody on your dick wanna Blow Jow”
Am I going crazy or were the lyrics changed up at some point? (I don’t have the album yet)
[Reply]

THIS IS JUST AMAZING
[Reply]
Personally, I don’t think the song is tight musically-I can’t stand Rihanna’s irritating vocals. But symbolically, its really interesting. Jay is not even hiding his Illuminati affiliations in this song but the majority of his fans (as the above comments attest to) are blind to this. Jigga is basically saluting his satanic connections and y’all are all on his d***! CRAZY! Read the lyrics carefully and tell me WHAT EXACTLY IS JAY-Z ON ABOUT? CRAZY!!!!
[Reply]
wonderin wat bee thinks bout dis illuminati sh*t
[Reply]
i love this song i wish if rihanna can come to my birthday party to sing n also i can sing like rihanna and i am soooooo happy she is an guyanese and barbadian at the same time omg also i love jay-z my favouriate guy n kanye west nuff luv

“you can call me Ceasar,
in a dark ceasar”
it was said earlier that he probably doesn’t say Ceasar 2x.
To me it sounds like “You can call me Ceasar, In a dark season” ?
[Reply]

Do you recall a time when “great art” questioned the foundation or direction of our culture, the course of humanity, the nature of people and their values, the call for a higher purpose? “Can you IMAGINE? It’s easy if you try.” The lyrics of artists like Jay Z, Beyonce, Rihanna are barren and completely devoid of meaning and utterly soul less in their relative insignificance. The Hip Hop Movement in America was hijacked by thugs posing as artists more consumed with gaining control of the music industry diluting the strength of the voices of empowerment, equality and dignity and churning out distraction for the delusional masses. Jay Z is simply the Black Madonna and Beyonce is a convenient BEARD who is getting more rich off her business alliance with Jay Z. Jay Z & Beyonce are the black answer to Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes, only Jay did not jump up and down on Oprah’s couch.

I would suggest you fools google illuminati and the masons or find it on youtube, you would very quickly see the affiliations with the secret societies. Our youth has been blinded…it’s time to take them back. Check out Tupac’s killuminati cd…he knew about this shit. Wisen up young folks before their New World Order takes effect; it’s closer than you think. Run this town…hmmmm. What could that mean…

it is tonight 2x in the first paragraph
thnx 4 the lyrics

Rihanna sings amazing in this song (as always)
