Ladies and gentlemen, I am so genuine, I ain't embellishin' (woo!)
I got that medicine, I'm what you never been, and I ain't just settlin' (woo!)
Ugh, I want another win, I am the evidence we could be better than this
You could try to lie, my city know the truth (woo!)
And you won't make it out unless you know the rules (woo!)
Real recognize real here (yeah), hot summers, but it's chill here (woo!)
Hope livin', and it's still here, but they still heavy with the steel here, yeah
We're gonna run this town

You're lookin' at the new empire, we're gonna take it up higher
(Hey) run this town
Yeah, another day, another dollar, block is getting hotter, and you know it (woo!)
Only make it if you gotta lay up, or you hustle on the corner (woo!)
It's a struggle but they willing even though they feel the pressure on 'em (woo!)
They don't know, just like an Otis Redding song, you know the change is comin' (woo!)
Pipe dreams like ice cream, they get the cake, so they might be
On the top like icing, tryna figure out the right thing (woo!)
Spike Lee's on the block, we on the rise, this will not be televised (woo!)
This one's for me, you and I, we won't believe in the lies
We're gonna run this town
(Hey) run this town
You're lookin' at the new empire, we're gonna take it up higher

Thunderbolt, struck you, Samurai, we cut through
This is our house, we got you, right where we want you, yeah
We're gonna run this town
(Hey) we're gonna run this town
