[Intro]
Yeah, take a Vacation
And do what you want (Vacation)
Yeah, do what you want
Yeah, yeah

[Chorus]
Yeah
I said "I'd rather be one of one, than one of many"
People walk around this world without any
Rrreebah

[Verse 1]
My life is one through sixty
Society tried to trick me
I don't who I was but this cup got me tipsy
I was in my room, skipping class, making beats
Trying to fulfill all my childhood needs
Waking up to rights, fall asleep to wrongs
In between it was me and Nick blowing bongs
Nowhere on the map to MTV Tres
Shoutout all my chicas, do you recognize my face?

[Chorus]
Yeah
I said "I'd rather be one of one, than one of many"
People walk around this world without any
Rrreebah

[Verse 2]
And I was on my mantle piece at ten years old
Zero fucks given 'cause I felt it in my soul
Middle fingers up then my hair's screaming "So what?"
Rrreebah, yeah

[Chorus]
Yeah
I said "I'd rather be one of one, than one of many"
People walk around this world without any
Rrreebah
Yeah
I said "I'd rather be one of one, than one of many"
People walk around this world without any
Rrreebah

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.
