Because I Run This Songtext
von Nada UV

I′ve been punching through ceilings
Just for the thrill of it
Flirt with the line, make it blush
Say my name, let it stick (so legit)
Counting up scores in my head
While I'm crossing my legs
Success is finger-licking
I′m prepared to break some eggs
I take my meetings in silk because
Business is a show
Too sharp for your comfort
It bites when the numbers don't flow
That scoundrel tried to one-up
Never saw my next move
Every elevator's a holding cell
See him staring at Bloomberg News


Shove comes to push, I′ll play it close
Don′t need a reason
Eyes on the ball, pay in cash for it all
Riding that sweet freedom
Double down daisy
Every dare gets me high
Think you can touch me
It gets me wet to see you try

Because I run this
Smile with a sideways glance
Twist, turn, lean in, rules bend
This is how I dance
If you want a piece
You've gotta raise the stakes
I′m climbing up, hijacking the game
Make no mistake
I crave it—spotlights
Want to savor every win
Flames in my palms
Let that power run smooth over my skin


Retake control every hour
See who's game to play
With the cosmos on my side
I might gank five or six a day
Crystal blue persuasion
Double-shot, leave ′em hazy
They call me ruthless
Baby, but they're scared to call me crazy

Because I run this
Smile with a sideways glance
Twist, turn, lean in, rules bend
This is how I dance
If you want a piece
You′ve gotta raise the stakes
I'm climbing up, hijacking the game
Make no mistake
I crave it
Spotlights, want to savor every win
Flames in my palms
Let that power run smooth over my skin
