"Part II (On the Run)" is a song recorded by American rapper Jay-Z from his twelfth studio album Magna Carta Holy Grail (2013) featuring American singer-songwriter Beyoncé. The song was written by Jay-Z, James Fauntleroy, Timbaland, and J-Roc while the production was handled by the latter two. It is viewed as a sequel to Beyoncé and Jay-Z's 2002 collaboration "'03 Bonnie & Clyde", a song which was rumored to be about their relationship. "Part II (On the Run)" is a slow-tempo Electro-R&B ballad instrumentally complete with synths and drums, and its lyrics refer to a rebellious couple in love and describe their dangerous relationship.
The song charted at numbers 93 and 81 on the UK Singles Chart and US Billboard Hot 100, respectively, based on downloads alone, following the release of Magna Carta Holy Grail. It was sent to U.S. contemporary hit radio stations as the third single to be released from the album on February 18, 2014.
Background
"Part II (On the Run)" was written by Jay-Z, James Fauntleroy, Timbaland and J-Roc, while the production was handled by the latter two. It contains a sample of "Believe in Me" by American band One Way and Jay-Z uses Juvenile's "Back That Azz Up" flow when he rhymes "Push your ma'fucka wig back, I did that/I been wilding since a Juve."{{cite AV media notes |title=Magna Carta...

Jon Pareles, a writer of The New York Times noted that it was the closest song to pop music on Magna Carta Holy Grail.{{cite news |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2013/07/05/arts/music/jay-z-frets-on-magna-carta-holy-grail.html |title=Jay-Z Frets on 'Magna Carta Holy Grail' |last=Pareles |first=Jon |date=July 5, 2013 |work=The New York Times |access-date=July 16, 2013 }} Pareles further noted that Timbaland's production sets aside his usual brittle tones to hint at the keyboard confections of 1980's Lionel Richie and Don Henley. Lyrically, the song speaks about a rebellious couple that is desperately in love. The song opens with an airy prelude during which Beyoncé sings the lines, "Who wants that perfect love story anyway anyway / Cliché cliché cliché. Who wants that hero love that saves the day anyway, cliché cliché cliché" in dreamy lead vocals along with breathy harmonies.{{cite news|url=https://www.theglobeandmail.com/arts/music/album-reviews/jay-zs-magna-carta-holy-grail-hubris-as-outrageous-as-alis-but-without-the-charisma/article13016393/|title=Jay-Z's latest album: Hubris as outrageous as Ali's, but without the charisma|work=The Globe and Mail|publisher=The Globe and Mail Inc.|first=Brad|last=Wheeler|date=July 5, 2013|access-date=July 16, 2013}} Jay-Z and Beyoncé further trade verses about fugitives finding romance, with Beyoncé singing, "I hear sirens while we make love" and slowly exhaling in the song, singing in her lower register, swearing that she can still hold her lover's heart and gun.{{cite web|url=http://idolator.com/7468746/jay-z-magna-carta-holy-grail-part-ii-on-the-run-beyonce|archive-url=https://archive.today/20130717084924/http://idolator.com/7468746/jay-z-magna-carta-holy-grail-part-ii-on-the-run-beyonce|url-status=dead|archive-date=July 17, 2013|title=Jay-Z's 'Magna Carta Holy Grail': Hear Beyonce Collaboration "Part II (On The Run)"|publisher=Idolator.

Critical reception
Josh Grossberg of E! Online labelled the song as a "worthy and sultry sequel." Glenn Gamboa from Newsday wrote that "Part II (On the Run)" was one of the songs that created a new standard for R&B, showing how "strong grooves can coexist with strong lyrical concepts", noting that it contained a twist to the expected R&B love song.
