[Intro]
And this gon' probably ruin it
And I should just be through with it
But I wanna see the story end
Yeah, I wanna see the story end
And this gon' probably ruin it
And I should just be through with it
But I wanna see the story end
Yeah, I wanna see the story end
Got accustomed to the fast life (got accustomed to the fast life)
That slow lane’s too slow (that slow lane’s too slow)
So know that you don’t act right (so know that you don’t act right)
That novocaine’s no joke (that novocaine’s no joke)
Oooh (oooh)

[Verse]
Prob'ly gonna be on probation soon
Should’ve listened to my mom, she said
These girls wanna lay with you
But you catch fleas when you lay with dogs, I said
Throw me a bone
Walked out the house without a leash on
I just wanna roam
Jumped in my Nissan, checked my phone
“Come pick us up, we don’t wanna be alone
Ain’t no catch, we just trynna get thrown”
So I pull up and the tears start flowin'
Both black eyes and a broken soul
One miscarriage and a broken home
“So where you wanna go?”
They say, “we don’t care”
Shoulda turned around right there
They just wanna get the fuck away from here
I shoulda turned around right there
I hope this isn’t

[Outro]
Drunk love (damn)
It’s over when it’s sober
Drunk love
Your memory is gone
Drunk love
It’s over when it’s sober
Drunk love
Remember me tomorrow

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.
