Additional personnel
The Circle is the eleventh studio album by American rock band Bon Jovi. Produced by John Shanks, the album was released November 10, 2009. The album debuted at #1 in several countries, including the U.S., where it sold 163,000 copies in its first week debuting at #1 on the Billboard 200.
The Circle takes the band back to the rock roots after their prior Nashville country music influenced album Lost Highway. The Circle was inspired by the economic meltdown and political turmoil around the world.
In an interview given to Rolling Stone Magazine, guitarist Richie Sambora says the album is a return to "rock and roll" and said "There’s going to be some big choruses on there. It sounds like Bon Jovi, but it sounds fresh. We experimented with a lot of new sounds and had a really good time working with John Shanks, who is also a really good guitar player, so he and I did a lot of ‘weaseling’ with the guitar sounds. There are a lot of really good guitar sounds and new kind atmospheres on the new Bon Jovi record, that I think makes it really modern. I think people are going to dig it, man. And it rocks hard."

[Guy]:
Yeah uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, yeah
Yes! G-U-Y and I
Gotta get a piece of this pie
Gonna take you on a high
Do or die
Are you with it?
Cause you can be the one who can get it
And if I get money we can split it
If I gave you my life would you live it
Would you fit it?
Now who wanna be the freeloader
Who wanna be the shareholder
Who's gonna be the downloaders
When I download the **** on the block
All consumers just be ready to cop
Cause I'm ready to drop, **** be fifty a pop
You better let me know if you want it or not
Yo it's gonna be gone by the end of the day
Cause **** from Y2K
1 - We're talking 'bout the best
Take it to the wild, wild West
Talking about the dirty south
That's what I'm all about, no doubt
Take it to the East
You gotta go fast in the streets
Cause I'm living in the belly of the beast
I'm just trying to live in peace, roll out
Now we're rolling on the South side
With my true playas this is from the East side
Got my shorties in the back
Got my niggaz in the front
And my fifteen inch rims on my hoo ride
Now who rides, rolling through the ATL so don't trip
Plus you're about to get yourself in some ****
And you know we got your back
All the clubs are pack from front to back, the girls are phat
Booty banging like a budha sack
And when you're living in the ghetto
You gotta know when to let go
How to hold every dice roll
Or your platinum from your white gold
Plus the price is on your soul
And everyday's in vain
Shooting you're luck like a monopoly game
And everybody's looking for the fortune and fame
That's the name of this thang
Repeat 1
[1 Life 2 Live]:
Only the best like pushing black Bentley coupes
You ain't the best so that just can't be you
Only the best like coppin' a platinum piece
You ain't the best nigga **** cheap
Me, toxic, I split vintage
Everything you talk you know we been did
You kick one rap and you all winded
Your career real quick started and ended
We the elite means we the top of the line
Means we go straight in while you stopping in the line
Means I don't give a **** what you got in your rhymes
Means y'all get to going when I'm cocking my nine
When Teddy told me the cost, **** hit me hard
Pay me how many thousands for sixteen bars?
You wiling, you gon' regret that you started this mess
Got two g but will never be part of the best
Repeat 1
Just trying to live in peace yeah, yeah
