[Verse 1: Russ]
Yeah, tryna get this Nas feature
Bugus rollin' up a lot of reefer
I hit it once, record my voice
But these are God speakers (God speakers)
Take over the game, this is our Ether
Too many bitches, it's a blur so I called neither
I call Aretha, tell her Franklin needs to hit my bank
And make me call Katrina so I make it rain
Turn this world into some ballerinas
The fallacy is I'm a freshman and been a senior, lapped ya
Got more beats and more stars than your favorite rapper
I'm passed the zenith
This is what it sounds like to be dreamin'
In reality, believin' and achievin'
Those far-fetched omens turning into moments
Turning into memories, I swear I'm out here floatin'

[Chorus: Chioma]
Let me take a shot of me
Let me take a hit of me
I'm doing drugs
Let me take a dab of me
Let me put me in my gums
I'm doing drugs

[Verse 2: Russ]
Yeah, mmm
Two tabs of the Lucy
Three shots of the gin
Four pulls on the weed
Five hoes on my-
Mmm, yeah
Let me tell y'all, mmm

[Chorus: Chioma]
Let me take a shot of me
Let me take a hit of me
I'm doing drugs
Let me take a dab of me
Let me put me in my gums
I'm doing drugs

[Outro: Russ & Chioma]
Let me take a shot of me
Let me take a hit of me
I'm doing drugs
Let me take a dab of me
Let me put me in my gums
I'm doing drugs

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.
