[Chorus]
Take my hand and rock it real slow
I wanna feel your love tonight
Let's put the world on pause and get drunk off these city lights
I'm all about us tonight
Ooh, I'm scared to fall in love again
Ooh, I'm scared to fall in love again

[Verse 1]
Yeah, tried to give you everything, I was thinking wedding ring
You were cheating every chance you got while I was faithful
Then you went with who you, told me not to worry 'bout
Now you got a baby with him, damn, that could've been me
Can't say that I hate you, if I had the money
That I have now, I would've taken you away from
Everything that killed us, would have seen the real us
Now I'm scared of falling in love again

[Chorus]
Take my hand and rock it real slow
I wanna feel your love tonight
Let's put the world on pause and get drunk off these city lights
I'm all about us tonight
Ooh, I'm scared to fall in love again
Ooh, I'm scared to fall in love again

[Verse 2]
Yeah, tryna help you see the truth
But you prolly won't look
I just wanna hear your story
Like a audio book
You knew me before my ex, yeah
We stayed at the W, yeah
Better not fuck my name up
Like a substitute, yeah
I can tell you wanna do it but you don't know how to do it
'Cause you're scared to death
You can tell I wanna do it but I don't know how to do it
'Cause I'm scared to death
We should grab each other's hands and take a jump off the cliff
And hope we fly
Then you pause and I pause and we look at each other
But we both know why

[Chorus]
Take my hand and rock it real slow
I wanna feel your love tonight
Let's put the world on pause and get drunk off these city lights
I'm all about us tonight
Ooh, I'm scared to fall in love again
Ooh, I'm scared to fall in love again

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.
