Yeah
Check me out, look
(I run this bitch) and I'ma keep runnin
I'ma keep runnin', but I'm never runnin' out of money
I'm a dog, I'ma stunt, if I don't do nothin (yeah, to the ceiling with it, nigga)
And my car so pretty, all these hoes wanna fuck it (high with it, talkin' money, nigga)
Soft-ass seats and my trunk go boom (to the ceiling with it)
Got a black-ass gun and a bad yellow bitch (in the wall with it, nigga)
And it looks like I'ma die like this (let's go, homie)
'Cause we be stuntin' on these bitches, get money on these bitches
Two-fifty on the wrist, nigga, we be the illest
We be the realest, CMB niggas
Uptown soldier with the money to the ceiling
Shinin' like a diamond from a eagle to a pigeon
Birds on the wire, hundred deep and we chillin
Finger on the trigger, that's that uptown livin'
High to the sky, no divin' for fishes
Hustlin', doin' donuts in the Lamb'
Candy on the slab, fifty on the ave
Hundred at the crib, get it how you live
Stuntin' on these bitches, red diamonds how I feel
(I run this bitch) and I'ma keep runnin
I'ma keep runnin', but I'm never runnin' out of money
I'm a dog, I'ma stunt, if I don't do nothin
And my car so pretty, all these hoes wanna fuck it
I got pussy wet paint (paint), big boy shoes (shoes)
Soft-ass seats and my trunk go boom
Got a black-ass gun and a bad yellow bitch (burn one, nigga)
And it looks like I'ma die like this
I'm a uptown soldier, known high roller
Money go getter, M.O.B. all over
Hustlin' with the birds, known to take it off your shoulder
Grindin' with the homies, got the game out the 'Nola
Hundred G's wrapped, hood with a strap
Blowin' on the doja, nigga, stuntin' in a 'Llac
Chicken in the oven, wall safe for the stacks
Bought a brand new Range, and a brand new 'Bach
Old school Caddy, fifth wheel, slab back
A brand new truck, a brand new bike
A brand new house, a brand new psych
A brand new bitch live a hood rich life
(I run this bitch) and I'ma keep runnin
I'ma keep runnin, but I'm never runnin' out of money
I'm a dog, I'ma stunt, if I don't do nothin
And my car so pretty, all these hoes wanna fuck it
I got pussy wet paint (paint), big boy shoes (shoes)
Soft-ass seats and my trunk go boom
Got a black-ass gun and a bad yellow bitch
And it looks like I'ma die like this
I run this shit and I'ma keep runnin
I'ma keep runnin, but I'm never runnin' out of money
I'm a dog, I'ma stunt, if I don't do nothin'
All these hoes wanna fuck it
I got pussy wet paint (paint), big boy shoes (shoes)
Soft-ass seats and my trunk go boom
Got a black-ass gun and a bad yellow bitch
And it looks like I'ma die like this
Another Cash Money classic, ya heard me?

Niggas Birdman and Lil Wayne, gangsters for life, nigga
The lyrics of Birdman Ft. Lil Wayne's song I Run This speak about the two rappers' success, using their achievements to establish their power and influence. They boast about their wealth, with Birdman declaring that he will keep running because he won't ever run out of money. He boasts about his car and its attractive appearance, which causes women to want him. Furthermore, he stunts all the time and doesn't care if he doesn't do anything. He also boasts that he's got a bad yellow bitch by his side, and he's got a black-ass gun, which he may use to defend himself if need be. Lil Wayne also boasts about his money-making abilities, showing off his expensive watch and proclaiming them to be "the illest." He is also a soldier from uptown, who's always in control and hustling to get money. Lil Wayne also boasts about his material possessions, which include a Lamborghini and a Range Rover. He lives a lavish life, and this is evident in his descriptions of his new house, truck, bike, and his "hood rich" lifestyle.
The song reflects the luxurious, ostentatious life of rappers and talks about the everyday, stereotypical "gangsta" attitude they carry around with them. The two rappers align themselves in the song with success, wealth, and power, idealizing their dangerous, street-smart personas. It highlights their strong personalities and flashy lifestyles, which they say define them, and their outspoken attitudes that represent their hip-hop roots.
Overall, the song I Run This shows the materialistic lifestyle of Birdman and Lil Wayne, their sense of power and invincibility, and their love for the streets that made them famous.
