Run This Town

Midwest whatup

Let me get my theme music, Kells

Some say, you can only judge a man by what he has

And I got a whole city behind me..

(Whatup, yeah)

Let it run

(Whatup)

I like this

(Whatup, yeah, whatup)

And you know what they say

With great power comes great responsibility (yeah)

And let it be known

I got this

We are, the best motherfuckers in this spot

They can't see who's in it cause the windows all tinted

This is, more than the business, the fame and the image

This is natural, no gimmicks, rappers actin' like Gwyneth

Lumps in my denim they swear I done shitted'

I don't give a flyin' fuck that's why they call me "lieutenant"

Try to play me like a kitten, homie you kiddin?

You rappers are nothing serious, I call you a scrimmage

Breathe, bring it back to the map

We just grinding here first, we just happened to rap

Lost a friend to the night, still battlin' that

There wasn't any type of show, they just happened to clap

Promised him, if you music's a race, I'd be running the track

And if I come out the winner, I ain't runnin' it back

Wasted my whole entire life runnin' from Jack

Once in a lifetime's now and I ain't runnin' from that, yeah

We own the night, all black Chucks on

The new generation, no black tux on

Rather fitted jeans, no inches to cut on

And the talent that you willin' to bet a million bucks on

This is my story, so this is real shit

Everything I want, this is what the real get

Dream big, the Empire State feelin'

Money taller than the Empire State building

Don't get it twisted, I ain't rich yet, but I'm straight

Whoever thought I'd make that killin' of my wordplay

I did, I've been knowing since the first day

Revenge can be many things, success is the worst way

I see they faces now, but I'm way too real to care

My night is coming soon, I feel it in the air

Somebody's gotta run the town before the smoke clears

This kingdom is now without a king, look people I'm here

Life’s a game but it's 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 that's on my mind is who’s gonna run this town tonight

Hey (etc.)

Who’s gonna run this town tonight

This is what greatness sounds like, y'all

So beautiful, don't you agree?

You know who it is
