[Chorus]
Misunderstood, you only see
Pieces that fit your view of me
Your mind is made up, my hands are tied
Misunderstood time after time

[Post-Chorus]
I feel like I got nothing left
There's something in my way I can't move
I really showed you all of me
Just for you to pick and choose

[Verse 1]
How convenient for you
Try falling back but I can't, I keep leaning towards you
If you wanna leave, then just leave but I hope it ain't easy for you
I'm turning myself inside out, can't believe you don't see this for you
Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah

[Chorus]
Misunderstood, you only see
Pieces that fit your view of me
Your mind is made up, my hands are tied
Misunderstood time after time

[Bridge]
Don't you tell me
You know me when you don't
I was the best I
Could be for you
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Yeah

[Verse 2]
I'm tired, I'm tired, I'm tired, I'm tired, I'm tired
Of overexplaining myself when you don't wanna get it
I'm not responsible for what you don't understand
Just for what I say and who I am

[Chorus]
Misunderstood, you only see
Pieces that fit your view of me
Your mind is made up, my hands are tied
Misunderstood time after time

[Outro]
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh

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.
