[Verse 1]
All I can do is hope that I don't have to go through what I already went through, again
You know my gut is full
You know my cup is full
And it's spilling, for you
Don't you turn out the same
This ain't no game to me
This ain't no game to me

[Bridge]
Are you moving back?
Don't ask me if I'm cool with that
Cause you know I need the whole thing
Yeah, you know I need the whole thing, from you

[Chorus]
Baby I, maybe I
Should wait until I see you naked
Not your body
I'm talking 'bout your soul
Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah

[Verse 2]
Believe in me, like I believe in you
I'm screaming fuck it if you trust that it's just me and you
Don't act for me, don't lie to me
Just keep it super super super super super fucking real
Just keep it super super super super super fucking real
Just keep it super fucking real
Just keep it super fucking real

[Bridge]
Are you moving back?
Don't ask me if I'm cool with that
Cause you know I need the whole thing
Yeah, you know I need the whole thing, from you

[Chorus]
Baby I, maybe I
Should wait until I see you naked
Not your body
I'm talking 'bout your soul
Yeah, 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.
