[Hook]
That's why I'm giving you my sideline, sideline number (Sideline number)
That's why I'm giving you my sideline, sideline number (Sideline number, yeah)

[Verse 1]
Ever since I came up, I'm a come up
See me fucking you could be a fuck up
One slip up could have my whole career ended
Gotta think about what I send before I send it
So I keep it short, nothing outlandish
Girl I'm talkin to is half Arab half Spanish
I don't give a fuck though, bitches all cut throat
Plus I'm the one so

[Bridge]
I ask for you number then I text you from my sideline
No evidence, no tracin' back to me so I'm fine
I don't know you enough to trust you that's the truth I
I know you're hot, but I can't get got

[Hook]
That's why I'm giving you my sideline, sideline number (Sideline number)
That's why I'm giving you my sideline, sideline number (Sideline number, yeah)

[Verse 2]
I'm a target, I can't start it, you gotta initiate
Keep it quiet, I'll deny it if you try and get me framed
Only women that I fuck with are low-key
Only ones that know my home are my homies
Anti-screenshot man, I'm too hot

[Bridge]
I ask for you number then I text you from my sideline
No evidence no tracin' back to me so I'm fine
I don't know you enough to trust you that's the truth I
I know your'e hot, but I can't get got

[Hook]
That's why I'm giving you my sideline, sideline number (Sideline number)
That's why I'm giving you my sideline, sideline number (Sideline number)
That's why I'm giving you my sideline, sideline number (Sideline number)
That's why I'm giving you my sideline, sideline number (Sideline number, yeah)

[Verse 3]
No such thing as a private message
Cause they'll air it out like Byron Leftwich
Gotta keep it real real real G-rated
They got more crazy when you get more famous
Damn you trippin', girl you a bad look
I'm takin' more shots than your ass took
Fake, stupid, where were you raised at?
How can I save that?

[Bridge]
I ask for you number then I text you from my sideline
No evidence no tracin' back to me so I'm fine
I don't know you enough to trust you that's the truth I
I know you're hot, but I can't get got

[Hook]
That's why I'm giving you my sideline, sideline number (Sideline number)
That's why I'm giving you my sideline, sideline number (Sideline number, yeah)

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.
