[Intro]
We're living in a place where it’s okay to have no worth
But is that shit okay and does it really work?
I guess I've got some news for ya
I guess I've got some news for ya
And it may not be new for ya
But here’s some news for ya
They'd rather hear you talking 'bout the

[Chorus: Russ]
Bouncing, swerving, the rims is glistening
They gotta see the wood 'cause the top is missing
The bouncing, the swerving, the rims is glistening
They gotta see the wood 'cause the top is missing

[Verse 2: Bugus]
Uh, my bottle's top is off
My f**king roof is missing
I sit and write like twice a night until I improve conditions
I give it my life, this f**king mic is like my proof of living
Shoot, what isn't true? What isn't you? Is just a euphemism
I make the Muslims listen
I’ve got the Jews and Christians (What else?)
I’m meditating like a Buddhist having Bugus visions
That's too deep, you probably shouldn’t f**k with me
It's all good 'cause luckily your nigga's still

[Chorus: Russ]
Bouncing, swerving, the rims is glistening
They gotta see the wood ’cause the top is missing
The bouncing, the swerving, the rims is glistening
They gotta see the wood 'cause the top is missing

[Verse 3: Bugus]
Uh, yeah
I'll be remembered for a million years
It's DIEMON and we're more than just millionaires
I'm lighting tour mind, you've had it up to here
Disaster time, I'm mine and I'm about to smash this year
F**k, I've got tour girlfriends lining up
And I'm 'bout to grind them up, you didn't shine enough
You're stones are rhine enough so I could say "Your time is up"
'Bout to go DIEMON
It's all about the time and not about the time just

[Chorus: Russ]
Bouncing, swerving, the rims is glistening
They gotta see the wood 'cause the top is missing
The bouncing, the swerving, the rims is glistening
They gotta see the wood 'cause the top is missing

[Verse 4: Russ]
I'm looking at the world through my glass of scotch
Like "Hello Johnny Walker, where's your cash?
Where's your watch?"
Show your past, what you got?
Oh, you ain't got that new shit?
Man what the f**k, you ain't even gonna do shit
You need to cop a blue whip, redbone
If you ain't got that head home
You might feel alright living life but you're dead wrong
No Jesus piece, where's your candy chocolate painted car
They all call Reese's piece
You ain't saying shit unless you speak to me like this:

[Chorus: Russ]
Bouncing, swerving, the rims is glistening
They gotta see the wood 'cause the top is missing
The bouncing, the swerving, the rims is glistening
They gotta see the wood 'cause the top is missing

[Outro: Russ]
We're living in a place where it's okay to have no worth
But is that shit okay and does it really work?
I guess I've got some news for ya
I guess I've got some news for ya
And it may not be new for ya
But here's some news for ya
They'd rather hear you talking 'bout the

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.
