[Chorus]
Climb on top, feels like we’re on drugs
You say it’s that dope, I just call it loving
Then I climb on top, fuck you like you need
Me on top is cool but I really want you on top of me

[Verse 1]
We fuck and we fight but not in that order
I love you tonight, I hate you by morning
These drugs on the table got me talking too much
You getting offended, not giving two fucks
Dirty hotel, you call it ‘The Trap’
I’m not gonna front, I’m still coming back
Short tempers, long distance, so we fuck through the phone like it’s prison (so we fuck through the phone like it’s prison)

[Chorus]
Climb on top, feels like we’re on drugs
You say it’s that dope, I just call it loving
Then I climb on top, fuck you like you need
Me on top is cool but I really want you on top of me

[Verse 2]
We living in hell, I was showing you heaven
You are far from an angel and close to a blessing
You went up to Michigan sucking some dick again
Swimmin' in bottles and blunts and lies
Your life jacket was my sympathy, my naivety
And now you dying drowning, you try to bring me down, too
You were barely floating when I found you
Paddle quick, paddle quick, paddle quick
I be grabbing billions you be grabbing dicks
What’s up, you were lying, your looks like a hoe
And you ain’t gonna ever, ever, ever again

[Chorus]
Climb on top, feels like we’re on drugs
You say it’s that dope, I just call it loving
Then I climb on top, fuck you like you need
Me on top is cool but I really want you on top of me

[Bridge]
And you might be thinking that you might have got me
Oh, but don’t you ever, for a second, think I didn’t see
I just knew that you couldn’t hurt me
Maybe I was a little too color blind, fuck it

Russell Vitale is a rapper from Atlanta, Georgia, by way of New Jersey. A lifelong fan of rap, Russ began writing raps in his notebook at the age of 7. At 14, he began making beats, producing for his friend Bugus who had dreams of making it as a rapper. In high school, Russ made the decision to also pursue a career as a rapper himself.

Between 2011 and 2014, Russ released 11 mixtapes. These received minimal attention, and Russ decided to wait to release his debut album until he had enough of an audience. What followed was 96 consecutive weekly singles released to his SoundCloud page. Two notables among the slew of singles were “What They Want” and “Losin Control,” both of which ended up being certified 2x Platinum by the RIAA.

On May 5, 2017, Russ released his debut album There’s Really A Wolf, which spawned 7 singles with Gold certification or higher and was certified Platinum within a year of its release. A year later, his sophomore project ZOO came to be on September 7, 2018, this time opting to enlist external producers and featured artists. Then, at the end of January 2020, he dropped his long-awaited SHAKE THE SNOW GLOBE album, where he talks about love, haters and his wealth.
