[Intro: DJ Khaled, T-Pain & Jay-Z]
Ayy, we go by The Runners
DJ Khaled! We the best!
I'm going in! Remix! (Go Hard!)
LA-D-S! I can show 'em more then I can tell 'em
Go Go Go Young!
Lights out, n***as!

[Verse 1: JAY-Z]
I'm up out M-a-r-c-y P-r-o-j-e-c-t
Ain't no other motherfucker in the rap game harder than me
I go hard and get it in like a porn star
Follow my moves you wanna make it to the top
I'm OnStar for new born stars
Even when the camera stop
I'm a hundred-million-dollar movie, hand on my cock
Big Homie from the back block
When you first learned how to slap box
Then you even learned how to dribble the pill
Or to hand the pot, bring it back, rock
Number one rule: If your ass get popped
Don't chatterbox to the Matlocks
Death before dishonor, I'ma honor the code they created
Number two rule and it might sound rude, but—yup!
Fuck you, pay me!
I drown my pain in Porsches, I lost my partner to the bullshit
Still tryna hold on to my religion so
I put a couple diamonds in the crosses
Close your eyes, see the darkness
That's what it's like where I'm from
No lawyers, no doctors
So either I go the hardest or I could just call this a night
On dark nights, it's like I see better
On Dark Knights—I'm like Heath Ledger
Even if I overdose on drugs, motherfuckers can't kill my buzz
Wait, I ain't done—I'ma freestyle this, Khaled let it run
What's the hardest county in the Yayo?
'Cause I'ma go harder then they go
I'ma go harder than Baltimore
Philly gon' say they can't touch the boy
Where you at, Duval? I'ma go harder than you all
Harder than New York, turn the Pro Tools in the booth off
I'ma go harder than 'Ye go, and Ye go hard—
That's baby bro
(Put some more beat on that joint!)
[Chorus: T-Pain]
If you could you would get rid of me
What you gonna do when a n***a got to go hard
But I won't let you get to me
You should already figure I'mma go hard
If you were as real as me
You would never let another n***a step in your yard
Makin money ain't shit to me
This in my veins and it gets to my heart
So I am, I will, I gots to go
You got another way to live you gots to go on
I am gettin it in until the end I got to go, go, go, go hard

[Verse 2: Kanye West]
I ain't ever been scurred
Never been a type to bite my words
When I came up ya'll gave me shit
Now I'm gunna make ya'll eat them terds
Always said what the fuck I felt
Gon head spit that murder I wrote
Man I dont care what what you felt
Fuck you n***a I know I'm dope
Felt like I'm comin ready get my all
Felt like I had to play the fly on the wall
Felt like n***as was stuntin on me
Funny how I'm flyer then them all
Now I'm at the top ain't know where to go now
Instead of me, she gon go down
Maybe I would've slowed down
If I knew what I know now
I'm stupid, yeah I know I'm dumb
It could get fuckin old but its good I'm young
But my heart get cold as the hood I'm from
Tell me what it take to be numba one
I guess its gon be what its gon be
But heres one thing ya'll got to hear
I'mma tell you like George Bush told me
Fuck ya'll n***as I'm out of here
[Chorus: T-Pain & Twista]
If you could you would get rid of me
What you gonna do when a n***a got to go hard
But I won't let you get to me
You should already figure I'mma go hard
If you were as real as me
You would never let another n***a step in yo yard
Makin money ain't shit to me
This in my veins and it gets to my heart
So I am, I will, I gots to go
You got another way to live you gots to go on
I am gettin it in until the end I got to go, go, go, go hard (Y’all ain’t ready)

[Verse 3: Twista]
These cover rapping motherfuckers don’t really know the Definition of what it mean when you go hard
Scarface, Tupac, D-O-C, M.O.B, me
That’s when you go hard
I could lyrically, vocally, physically, horribly
Rapidly, easily, murderously knock a n***a off
I could diabolically, maliciously
Viciously, ruggedly, perfectly
Violently, stop a n***a talk
Finna tear this motherfucker off
I’m outstanding but they can’t stand it
I’m a phantom, you are not alone
Tony Stark ain’t no killa me, feel the trilogy
I’m about to slaughter, I go higher than a shot of ‘Tron
I’m a natural disaster, show the enemy thunder, lightning
Planets shaking from earthquakes
From a territory with killers and murderers
Terrorists in the hood, Chi-Town is the birthplace
When it be comin’ to battles, I devour the wack
That’s why I pull out my garage in a tank
I am under the Dwight Howard act (Why?)
‘Cause I go hard in the paint
Get your money or get the blues
Don’t do it if you fit the shoes
Get with your cliques and crews
Try to catch a blessing ‘cause it’s a recession
Motherfuckers ain’t got shit to lose, so n***a go hard
[Chorus: T-Pain]
If you could you would get rid of me
What you gonna do when a n***a got to go hard
But I won't let you get to me
You should already figure I'mma go hard
If you were as real as me
You would never let another n***a step in yo yard
Makin money ain't shit to me
This in my veins and it gets to my heart
So I am, I will, I gots to go
You got another way to live you gots to go on
I am gettin it in until the end I got to go, go, go, go hard
