[Verse 1: Bugus]
Uh, it's been a long ass journey on this road
It's me and my nigga Russ we came to let you bitches know
Russ got the bounce like six four
I'm at the store buying blunts, the citgo's closed
The studio is crushed with some new flows
Tough like a group home
My style mean, my sweet sixteens are full of glucose
So you know you could never step to me
Russ got the recipe, I'll leave the rest to destiny

[Chorus: Russ]
I talked to God, he told me I'm the one
I talked to God, I talked to God
I talked to God, he told me I'm the one
I talked to God, I talked to
I talked to God, he told me I'm the one
I talked to God, I talked to
I talked to God, he told me I'm the one
So all you number two's
Grab your shoes, time to run

[Bridge: Russ]
No everybody stop, let me show you how I do it
All my beats knock, there ain't really nothing to it
Lose it, lose it, lose it, lose it, lose it
Lose it to the music

[Verse 2: Russ]
Someone ring that motherfucking bell
I pray to God but plan on coming through and giving hell
I raise my one, make a song, listen to my spells
I'm in the game strangling these cultures like Latrell
Smoking marijuana L's by the bales

[Chorus: Russ]
I talked to God, he told me I'm the one
I talked to God, I talked to God
I talked to God, he told me I'm the one
I talked to God, I talked to
I talked to God, he told me I'm the one
I talked to God, I talked to
I talked to God, he told me I'm the one
So all you number two's
Grab your shoes, time to run

[Verse 3: Bugus]
Sorry I got to do this
But fooling with Bugus is fucking foolish
I'm lighting matches through your Medullas, the fucking coolest
I'm puffing Buddha like a Buddhist
See we started off as students, now let's move units
Let's do this
Diamond album selling, know your records
I'll bet it
'Cause every record I fucking wreck it
Don't sweat it
Since I was seven I walked to 7 Eleven
Bought a snack and wrote a bomb-ass rap
To be a legend

[Chorus: Russ]
I talked to God, he told me I'm the one
I talked to God, I talked to God
I talked to God, he told me I'm the one
I talked to God, I talked to
I talked to God, he told me I'm the one
I talked to God, I talked to
I talked to God, he told me I'm the one
So all you number two's
Grab your shoes, time to run

[Bridge: Russ]
No everybody stop, let me show you how I do it
All my beats knock, there ain't really nothing to it
Lose it, lose it, lose it, lose it, lose it
Lose it to the music

[Chorus: Russ]
I talked to God, he told me I'm the one
I talked to God, I talked to God
I talked to God, he told me I'm the one
I talked to God, I talked to
I talked to God, he told me I'm the one
I talked to God, I talked to
I talked to God, he told me I'm the one
So all you number two's
Grab your shoes, time to run

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.
