This Town
I-Rocc Lyrics

Feel it comin' in the air
Sensing excitement and anticipation

Hear the screams from everywhere
Overwhelmed by the enthusiastic response

I'm addicted to the thrill
Addicted to the excitement and adrenaline rush

It's a dangerous love affair
Engaging in a risky and thrilling relationship

Can't be scared when it goes down
Not allowing fear to hold back

Got a problem, tell me now
Open to addressing any issues or concerns

The only thing that's on my mind
Focused solely on one thing

Is who's gonna run this town tonight
Determining the leader or dominant force tonight

We are
Asserting our identity and unity

Yeah I said it
Reiterating the statement with confidence

This is Roc Nation
Affirming affiliation with Roc Nation

Pledge your allegiance
Requesting loyalty and commitment

Get y'all black tees on
Put on black t-shirts as a symbol of unity

All black everything
Embracing a total black aesthetic

Black cards, black cars
Symbolizing wealth and success

And our girls are blackbirds
Referring to our women as beautiful and empowered

Ridin' with they dillingers
Accompanied by strong and determined women

I'd get more in depth
Willing to provide further details

If you boys really real enough
If you are truly authentic and genuine

This is la familia
Emphasizing the bond and unity of our group

I'll explain later
Postponing the explanation for now

But for now let me get back to this paper
Returning focus to business and making money

I'm a couple bands down and I'm tryin' to get back
Lost some money and striving to recover

I gave Doug a grip, I lost a flip for five stacks
Gave money to Doug, lost a coin flip for a significant sum

Yeah I'm talkin' five comma
Referring to a large amount with five digits before the decimal point

Six zeros
Having a total of six zeros

Dot zero
Emphasizing the precision of the decimal

Here it go
Stating that this is the situation

Back to runnin' circles 'round bitches
Returning to outperforming and surpassing others

Now we squared up
Now we are on equal footing

Hold up
Wait a moment

Life's a game but it's not fair
Acknowledging life's unevenness and unpredictability

I break the rules so I don't care
Choosing to disregard rules and consequences

So I keep doin' my own thing
Continuing to pursue individuality and independence

Walkin' tall against the rain
Facing challenges with confidence and strength

Victory's within the mile
Success is close and attainable

Almost there, don't give up now
Encouragement to persevere until the end

Hey-e-e-e-e-e-y
Expressing a vocalization of excitement or anticipation

(Who's gonna run this town tonight)
Repeating the question of who will dominate tonight

You can call me Cesar
Claiming a position of authority and power

In a dark Czar
In an influential and mysterious role

Please follow the leader
Requesting others to follow and emulate

So Eric B. we are
Asserting that we are like Eric B., iconic and respected

Microphone fiend
Skilled and passionate about rapping

It's the return of the god
Highlighting the powerful comeback and presence

Peace god...
Offering greetings and respect

(Auh! Auh!)
Exclaiming sounds of excitement or affirmation

And ain't nobody fresher
Asserting superiority and excellence over others

I'm in Mason
Referring to wearing clothing by the designer brand Mason

(Ah!)
Expressing a sound of satisfaction or pleasure

Martin Margiela
Referring to wearing clothing by the designer Martin Margiela

On the tape we're screamin'
In the music, we passionately express ourselves

Fuck the other side, they jealous
Disregarding and dismissing the envy from others

We got a banquette full of broads
Surrounded by attractive women

They got a table full of fellas
Others have a group of men with them

And they ain't spending no cake
They are not financially generous

They should throw they hand in
They should give up and admit defeat

'Cause they ain't got no spades
They lack resources and power

My whole team got dough
My entire group has money

So my banquette is lookin' like Millionaire's Row
My seating area resembles the VIP section of wealthy individuals

It's crazy how you can go from being Joe Blow
It's astonishing how someone can change their status

To everybody trying to get a no homo
From being unknown to receiving romantic advances

? cause I slept all day
Reflecting on laziness or lack of productivity

This the life that everybody ask for
This is the lifestyle that people desire

Welcome to the fast life
Entering a high-paced and glamorous existence

? a crash course
Learning quickly and intensely

We give a damn about the drama that you do bring
We don't care about the unnecessary conflict you bring

?
Disregarding or ignoring a negative situation

Who's gonna run this town tonight
Determining who will control and dominate the city tonight

(Who's gonna run this town tonight)
Repeating the question of who will lead this town

Hey-e-e-e-e-e-y
Expressing a vocalization of excitement or anticipation

Hey-e-e-e-y
Expressing a vocalization of excitement or anticipation

Hey-e-e-e-e-e-y
Expressing a vocalization of excitement or anticipation

Hey-e-e-e-y
Expressing a vocalization of excitement or anticipation

(Who's gonna run this town tonight)
Repeating the question of who will control and dominate the city tonight
