Run This City Lyrics by SJ the Artisan

The Revolution

2015

Yo, a lot of times
People are always about talk
They’re never about the walkin’
See when you walk
There’s always an action that comes behind it
And for every action, there’s a reaction
See let me tell what I’m talkin’ about
I’m spittin’ raps and settin’ traps for these katz beginning
Fool’s mate, the game of chess, check! Homie it’s time to end this
Driven by the Smithen that’s locked within my soul
And now I’m ‘bouta let it unleash, trigger flow on you haters
No one’s here to save ya
You ain’t fuckin’ with the Irate Gamer who’s afraid of these players
See me when I set it in the slot, play you lames like Sega
I made a way to raise this capital, take it and dish it out in abundance
Sorry, not use to huffin’ and puffin’
Cuffin’ my feelings around a blade to do some snuffing’
“Blue Magic” is a gift to you, but then these haters try to dilute it
Then I make them look stupid when they losin’ out on the dough‘cause people know it’s pollution
So tune in to the station that’s the brightest and fluent, the mic with the truest
Pen’s stepped on the scene with the twine, it’s asinine
You bein’ taken down and you don’t understand why?
Mics blaze when we rhyme, this grind
We do it for the town when we ride - when we ride
Come near the ring, watch we set it on fire ‘cause
You know that we Run This City now
Til I collapse and fall, ain’t nobody gettin’ top dawg
So strap up ya lyrics and flatten out ya britches ‘cause
You know that we Run This City now
The limelight’s approachin’, I feel it’s gonna be potent
Revolution hits the streets? Can’t wait for the open
You spittin’ ya hottest verses and people feelin’ ya shit
No quittin’ the plot is thickenin’ ya first flame has been lit
Since 07 I watched it presence come to fruition
Waitin’, anticipatin’ my music’s acquisition
Climbing this steep side, almost fell from the wire
Can’t wait for this year, signs tell me by this time, I’ll have a
3.0, DA, Marching Pride, I got an album release and I’m still on the grind
Keep the ties with all of my peoples connected
All of this’ll be true, and I can’t see you?
Boy get ya mothafuckin’ eyes checked, fuck ballin’
I’m tryna put checks in wallets of baller’s pockets
Prepare for weak’s end, I’m shatter-day, nice to meet ya
Today I’m ‘bouta defeat ya, tomorrow, you’ll be a picture
Mics blaze when we rhyme, this grind
We do it for the town when we ride - when we ride
Come near the ring, watch we set it on fire ‘cause
You know that we Run This City now
Til I collapse and fall, ain’t nobody gettin’ top dawg
So strap up ya lyrics and flatten out ya britches ‘cause
You know that we Run This City now
Ay remember the sayin’ “I ain’t a killer, but don’t push me”?
Guess I’m a dick, ‘cause all I do is kill pussies
Funny you get offended for simply being offensive
Subjected to do the bidding of haters, man I detest it
Chirpin’ goin’ on, guess I’m hearin’ some birds
You think I’m a nerd? You’re jealous that I’m clever with words
And I took yo spotlight, so what? You gon cry?
I EARNED this top spot, all I, did was fight
To get this recognition for the lyrics I’m spittin’
Wishin’ someone can hear me makin beats with precision
Now I’m makin’ a killin’, so you can feel it or fear it
It don’t matter, long as you know that we in this
We run this shit, redundant bitch
You pissed ‘cause you had all this time, it’s over kid
And all the music awards won’t come to mean shit
If 1093 ain’t comin’ the sickest, we run this bitch!
Mics blaze when we rhyme, this grind
We do it for the town when we ride - when we ride
Come near the ring, watch we set it on fire ‘cause
You know that we Run This City now
Til I collapse and fall, ain’t nobody gettin’ top dawg
So strap up ya lyrics and flatten out ya britches ‘cause
You know that we Run This City now
Mics blaze when we rhyme, this grind
We do it for the town when we ride - when we ride
Come near the ring, watch we set it on fire ‘cause
You know that we Run This City now
Til I collapse and fall, ain’t nobody gettin’ top dawg
So strap up ya lyrics and flatten out ya britches ‘cause
You know that we Run This City now
