[Intro]
!llmind put the loop on

[Chorus]
No one told me that these shots start addin' up (No)
No one told me I should stop, that I've had enough
Now I'm a little fucked up, but I think I'll be okay
Either way, I'll be back, tomorrow's another day (Yeah, yeah), yeah

[Verse 1]
Yeah, I'm nicked up and I'm bruised from the shit pumped through the news
Need my dick sucked before noon, need a twist up around two
If I give up then I lose, so I sit up, make a move
Need a drink up, make a tune, what I think of comes true
So let me focus
You talkin' way too much, it's midnight, let me roll this
Unless you tryna fuck, don't hit me up, you know this
I know it's harsh, but life is different now
You view me as a picture now, this isn't how I pictured now
Sun is shinin' in the studio and I don't got no windows
Those are just my angels, I'm surrounded, they just tip-toe
They might be subtle, but they're there
So I don't think it's fair to say that life is unfair, yeah

[Chorus]
No one told me that these shots start addin' up (No)
No one told me I should stop, that I've had enough
Now I'm a little fucked up, but I think I'll be okay
Either way, I'll be back, tomorrow's another day (Yeah, yeah)

[Verse 2]
Somewhere eatin' pasta, countin' lot of dollars
Movin' like a politician, don't approach me
I'm at the Kahala, smokin', eatin' guava
This is what you call the life, if you know me
Then you're right here smokin', eatin' guava, laughin' with me too (It's true, yeah)
I thought I was gonna die around the time that I made Zoo (It's true, yeah)
Yeah, yeah, I kept a smile plastered
Let's switch shoes, me and you, we gon' see who runs a mile faster
I bet it's me
You would think I'm sellin' dog food how they jealous of my pedigree
They shot me, I ain't rest in peace, I'm still standin', yeah

[Chorus]
No one told me that these shots start addin' up (No)
No one told me I should stop, that I've had enough
Now I'm a little fucked up, but I think I'll be okay
Either way, I'll be back, tomorrow's another day (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

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.
