Got It Good (Prod. Russ)

I Dont Know How To Stop Being Turnt Like This (Feat. Squire & Seba) (Prod. Russ)

young ones on they shit. no excuses. 

LYRICS :

I get my inspiration from my own potential
Fuck yo taste I know what's hot I got my own credentials
I'm goin crescendo 
Off my own instrumentals 
So I don't want your beats 
Im in the game you're in the stands 
I don't want your seats 
I'm heatin up 
Peep my numbers 
Discovered around the world like Columbus 
I'm the one it's been determined by my confidence 
Always down to politic like show me what the offer is 
Buzz startin to build like who brought russ into the offices? 
Accomplishments been stacking kinda nicely as of late 
But I'm tryna get this flyin to get this dyin to get this cake 
Coulda signed and been on tour with your favorite independent 
But imma boss and a boss respects that 
I'll be patient for my entrance 
Cuz the quicker you come in 
Is the quicker that you exit 
The more you fight the process 
Is the less you really let it 
Unfold how its spose to 
But lemme pause the coachin cuz my Spanish chick just rolled thru 
Don't get cold feet baby I know you got on snow shoes 
But come here lemme coax you
Got a little liquor and I guess that we can smoke too 
I tried to put her on but she don't believe enough 
She ain't that rough she ain't a rider she's not eve enough 
But she's naive enough 
To make me get unruly
Make me wanna kick her out my car like I was Gucci 
But I'm George clooney in oceans eleven 
I'm tryna pull this caper off 
Smirk at all the skeptics 
Piss all of my neighbors off 
And by neighbors I mean peers 
And by peers I mean people who doubted me over the years 
Cuz I was livin out their fears 
This is that no excuses 
Make a movement or get lapped 
I couldn't do a 9-5 I felt like that was just a trap 
I'm not racing round with rats for a little piece of cheese 
Imma build my own factory 
Retire at 33 
I'm just rhyming on an island just tryna get this motherfucking GUAP

Lapped (Prod. Russ)

i aint make the deans list but i bet i make the...

LYRICS : 

Takin shots like its my occupation
I call the shots of my operation 
Obligation of a boss 
That's just something that you're born with 
I ain't make the deans list but I bet make the Forbes list 
Couple corpses that I dated
Them bitches dead to me 
I'm tryna upgrade from local hoes 
To celebrities 
Get some fucking millions before my mom loses hope 
Cop a castle for the queen that comes equipped with a moat 
I ain't worried if all eyes are on me yet 
Cuz I know imma turn my Nissan into a p jet 
I deflect any doubt thrown my way 
Cuz there's a whole lotta fucking people who know my name 

We gon be alright
Money on the way we gon be alright
Drinks on me we gon be alright 
You aint gotta worry we gon be alright
We gon be alright
Money on the way we gon be alright
Drinks on me we gon be alright 
You aint gotta worry we gon be alright  

Im tryna build a skyscraper 
Why you comfortable with condos?
This world can't swallow me 
I'm fuckin up its tonsils 
Quatros anos 
It's time for a new president 
If hype is what's sellin
Someone tell me who's sellin it 
Nah fuck that russ is organic 
I'm showin you how to build 
I'm showin you what my floor plan is 
More cameras 
More groupies 
More stans it's all happening
I'm trafficking this magic 
Getting cash for being passionate 
Gotta half of fifth up in my system 
Hip hops got plots but ya boys twistin
You dreadin my arrival 
I'm exposing where the bar is at 
Pointing in the mirror tryna show you where the star is at 

We gon be alright
Money on the way we gon be alright
Drinks on me we gon be alright 
You aint gotta worry we gon be alright
We gon be alright
Money on the way we gon be alright
Drinks on me we gon be alright 
You aint gotta worry we gon be alright  

Forbes List (Prod. Russ)

imma be here forever...

LYRICS : 

So many people blowing smoke
It's getting too cloudy
It's kinda funny watching you you and you doubt me
I'm going where I'm going
Ain't nobody stopping that
Shooting for the stars
This is barely me cocking back
I put in work what you think they're cheering russ for
Taking short cuts could have your whole career cut short
One more month or
Definitely by spring
Imma be a millionaire
Turnin thoughts into things
Couple thots couple tings
Doesn't matter I'm the tin man
Nothing frees the pain like some tanqueray gin can
And I hope you playin chess and not checkers
I know that's your best
I hope you know you need to do better
I hope you see the scarlet letter on your wifeys sweater
She acted single when she was with me she let me do whatever
But fuck the love and affection
I got this buzz that I'm building
I just want plugs and connections
I swear I'm drunk off the feeling
Of being me
Aint nobody bout to sober me up
Understand me everybody's looked over me once
I got this chip on my shoulder
I got this voice that's inside me
That's yellin ain't nobody colder
Dare somebody to try me
I'm comin thru with that real shit
Popping without a deal shit
I play against myself
I'm on some steel sharpens steel shit
Cuz ain't no competition
Only my potential
I don't even have to rap
I could be rich off instrumentals
Making other people stars
But I figured I should shine too
The games got her legs open
I figured I should slide thru
Now people round the world confirming all my prophecies
Name your favorite rapper I got double their discography
So add an apostrophe to anything you offer me
You need me I don't need you so just watch how you talk to me
It's comedy watchin how the game goes
Industry plants use steroids
So as far as hall of fame goes
Y'all got an asterik
And ain't no getting past it
We all rapped to get here you were just wrapped up in plastic
And shoved down the masses gullet
I see your card imma pull it
We don't believe you
You need real people
It's all good tho I'm off it
Cliq full of young prophets
Like we all go by Muhammed
Its amazing what can happen when you
follow your instincts
So in sync with myself
They gon give ya boy bands
Like NYSNC
I want wealth
I want Grammys
I want 100 foreign girls in just panties
I want you to stop being so scared to be you
I want all your dreams to turn into reality too
It could happen if you want it
Cuz dreams deferred turn into nightmares
And I don't think you wanna be haunted
I gotta lot to accomplish
Further than mmmmm boppin
No disrespect to hanson
But longevitys my anthem
Faith is my companion
My doubt got abandoned
My devil stills dancin
In a house in the Hamptons
Momma still waitin on her beach front mansion
And she still mad at dad cuz the money's been random
It's been tighter than the tension in this room
It's been the coldest summer ever and the winters comin soon
But don't worry I'm gonna make the snow melt
The prize will be peace like a Nobel
Imma be on covers with one hand on my balls like I'm Odell
I never let nobody ride my coat tails
Living outta duffle bags
iTunes checks lotta hotels
Only time I lose is when I blow L's
Go tell whoever got the game on lock
That I got the key
Man my train don't stop
I gonna be
Here for forever
Longevity

Longevity Freestyle (Prod. Russ)

nothin like the...

LYRICS : 

We were crazy in love
The kind of love you make a song bout
You loved me way before I ever put a song out
It was real
Organic like its spose to be
First day I saw you
I was hopin that you noticed me
You the reason why I love latinas
Only girl I ever smoked with
Without tequila
Back when I use to cop a couple quarters a week
And smoke the whole thing with you
Round them hood ass streets
That was good ass weed
It's crazy tho yo that plugs dead
And I ain't talkin dead to me
I'm talkin real blood shed
I'll admit a lots changed since then
I've been gettin hot makin waves since then
I've been outta state getting paid since then
Fucking girls off my name and the fame since then
But still
I almost wanna call and ask truthfully
Am I the same or did I change from what I use to be

Ive been thinkin bout this girl i had a good thing
with until i fucked it up yuh
Ive been lookin for this girl in all these other girls
but they just fuck it up
Ohhhhh nothin like the first love first love
Ohhhhh theyre the best one and the worst one worst one

Cuz you were with me from the jump even before day 1
Now the girls the more songs I drop the more they come
But none of my next girls were a keeper like you
I should call this late night thoughts featuring you
Cuz when I wake up
I probably won't feel the same but
That ain't gonna change the
Way the moon got me here tryna make up
I fucked up a couple times
We never moved passed that
I'm sorry bout that Colombian girl
With the fat ass
And the other two I didn't mention
Till we split
I gambled with your trust
I shoulda never took that risk
I shoulda realized what I had
A down ass latin chick
The type of girl that you makes you
See there's no such thing as accidents
Wasn't on no hoe shit
She was on her own shit
I know I'm the reason why that winter
Was the coldest
But it happened how it's spose to
At least that's what I tell myself
Drinking thinking I should try and call you
I can't help myself

Ive been thinkin bout this girl i had a good thing
with until i fucked it up yuh
Ive been lookin for this girl in all these other girls
but they just fuck it up
Ohhhhh nothin like the first love first love
Ohhhhh theyre the best one and the worst one worst one



First One (Prod. Russ)

i always knew...

LYRICS : 

Always knew I had to put in work
Always knew that this was gonna work
Always knew that I'd bring home the bands
Always knew that I'd become the man
I always knew that second guessing was the opposite of truth
I bet my future on my faith
And let myself do what I do
Now my gambles looking like
They weren't gambles after all
I always knew I always knew
Yea I always knew

Shows overseas and they sold out
Made your girl bring the hoe out
Lotta people tryna get in contact
Lotta people tryna get a contract
Cuz they want my name on a X
I ain't gonna lie yea I think about my ex
I ain't gonna lie yea I think about the checks
I ain't gonna lie yea I think I got next
Always been the one my fam turned to
Skeptics Imma convert you
Give your girl something she can twerk to
I always knew what rap star perks do
Always knew they'd all start callin
Always knew I'd have a lotta options
Always knew the money was a sure thing
Always knew I'd make the whole world sing

Always knew I had to put in work
Always knew that this was gonna work
Always knew that I'd bring home the bands
Always knew that I'd become the man
I always knew that second guessing was the opposite of truth
I bet my future on my faith
And let myself do what I do
Now my gambles looking like
They weren't gambles after all
I always knew I always knew
Yea I always knew

Always knew I couldn't trust nobody
Always knew I had to trust myself
Always knew they'd try and call me cocky
Always knew they didn't love themselves

Back in Atlanta and I'm workin
Always knew it'd paid off to be observant
Always knew I'd end up in a car with curtains
Always knew I'd elevate to a new version
Of my self
2.0
These shots so strong feel the recoil
Who's loyal?
I don't need two hands
Same ones I came in with
Oo yea

Always knew I had to put in work
Always knew that this was gonna work
Always knew that I'd bring home the bands
Always knew that I'd become the man
I always knew that second guessing was the opposite of truth
I bet my future on my faith
And let myself do what I do
Now my gambles looking like
They weren't gambles after all
I always knew I always knew
Yea I always knew

Always Knew (Prod. Russ)

i just need...

LYRICS : 

I just need someone to drink with
Someone to talk to when I'm drinkin
Someone to touch on when I'm drinkin, drinkin, drinkin
I just need someone to drink with
Someone to talk to when I'm drinkin
Someone to love on when I'm drinkin, drinkin, drinkin

I just want someone to vibe with 
We don't gotta fuck yet
We can just get drunk yea, buzzin 
Right now I aint really poppin 
All I got is liquor love and truth 
Girl you got options
I only got 10 dollars to my name right now
But that's enough for you and me
Girl come thru
Imma try my best not to love you cuz

I just need someone to drink with
Someone to talk to when I'm drinkin
Someone to touch on when I'm drinkin, drinkin, drinkin
I just need someone to drink with
Someone to talk to when I'm drinkin
Someone to love on when I'm drinkin, drinkin, drinkin

Couple girls that missed out
I might loop back around
Gotta phone full of texts like
"Oh you back in town?"
If you were me would you slide thru for you
If I've been actin so brand new to you
Atlanta girl with her priorities off
Every picture that she posts
Her insecurities talk
Thats why I lay low
Never puttin pressure on the pussy
Squad full of gods and we mob like goodie
But I can't lie I'm lookin for some scenery adjustments 
Her body is a temple but her minds in construction
Nothing that we can't work on
I aint tryna lead her on cuz

I just need someone to drink with
Someone to talk to when I'm drinkin
Someone to touch on when I'm drinkin, drinkin, drinkin
I just need someone to drink with
Someone to talk to when I'm drinkin
Someone to love on when I'm drinkin, drinkin, drinkin


Someone To Drink With (Prod. Russ)

you aint heard of shit like that?!

LYRICS : 

You aint heard of shit like that?!
Workin all night you know shit like that 
Cuttin people off you know shit like that
Not enough money but I spend it anyway tryna make it
You aint heard of shit like that?!
Workin all night you know shit like that 
Cuttin people off you know shit like that
Not enough money but I spend it anyway tryna make it

I maneuver 
I can smell the gouda
Me and Bugus got plans to sell out Abuja
Girls catchin feelings
I ain't even throw shit
I just pay attention to the signs like a protest
If not me then who
If not now then when
Smoking by the pound
Getting paid by the yen
Baby girl I'm global
In and out of zip codes
Make a lotta noise when I move
I don't tip toe
Dreams too big
I don't like small talk
We thank god oh
Yea ahka
Give your girl vodka
Now she acting single
Yea shit like that
She know the lingo
Lookin at life thru the windshield
Not thru the rear view
I've been turning up my life
I don't hear you
Steer thru the doubt
How I'm feeling lately
I'll never feed a mouth talkin crazy

You aint heard of shit like that?!
Workin all night you know shit like that 
Cuttin people off you know shit like that
Not enough money but I spend it anyway tryna make it
You aint heard of shit like that?!
Workin all night you know shit like that 
Cuttin people off you know shit like that
Not enough money but I spend it anyway tryna make it

hit the runway like its fashion week 
put in work like a slave
made a masterpiece
still dark as night 
came alive in PM
African but i drive european
people gotta squint
my future is blindin
im like Watch! its all about timing
flight so long that I picked up a hobby
my Volvo feel like a Bugatti
accounts in the red like the 96 bulls
needed just push
now I got pull
now I might take a white girl out to Lagos
sit and talk about race like its Talladega
even though it dragged my formula 1
lf i take an L ill b smokin a blunt
from the sound we won like singles
outta town run wild like gringos

You aint heard of shit like that?!
Workin all night you know shit like that 
Cuttin people off you know shit like that
Not enough money but I spend it anyway tryna make it
You aint heard of shit like that?!
Workin all night you know shit like that 
Cuttin people off you know shit like that
Not enough money but I spend it anyway tryna make it


Shit Like That (Feat. Bugus) (Prod. Russ)

shoutout mouf & shyrene for the hotel studio hook up in Tampa

LYRICS : 

When I roll up I aint gotta say too much I'm good
I'm good
When I roll up better act the way you fuckin should
You should
When I roll up I aint gotta say too much I'm good
I'm good
When I roll up better act the way you fuckin should
You should

If only you could see me now
You would wanna press rewind
Everybody is a star
Some just don't know how to shine
I've been DIY forreal
I've been makin myself hot
Women throw themselves at me
All your girlfriends getting caught
I just take it as it comes
Gettin bigger by the day
I just focus on the signs
You should probably do the same
Ain't no tellin when I'm poppin
But I know it's coming soon
You can feel it in the air
When I step into the room

When I roll up I aint gotta say too much I'm good
I'm good
When I roll up better act the way you fuckin should
You should
When I roll up I aint gotta say too much I'm good
I'm good
When I roll up better act the way you fuckin should
You should

I've been wrapped up in myself
I've been living like a mummy
Self belief unlocked the door
On the other side is money
I believed and got it crackin
I ain't need to see it happen
Making something outta nothing
You could say I'm doing magic
I might lose myself in this
But I'll always be a winner
Feelin stronger than this gin
This is something for your liver
Confidence mixed with ambition
Everything will fall in place
What I think about I bring about
I never have to chase

When I roll up I aint gotta say too much I'm good
I'm good
When I roll up better act the way you fuckin should
You should
When I roll up I aint gotta say too much I'm good
I'm good
When I roll up better act the way you fuckin should
You should

The Formula (Prod. Russ)

im coming...

LYRICS : 

I pay my dues and get paid for it too
The outcome of my input
Is my favorite view
I do the work of two and half men
Like Charlie Sheen
This is what you get
When you don't care about the party scene
So pardon me
If I don't really look amused
I'm just shootin for the masses
Like I'm tryna make the news
All this winning by myself
Got these labels all confused
I should do a deal with a Nike
Cuz these checks are comin soon
Oo
Am I the only one lifted
The money ain't as fun
When you're the only one with it
I needa smaller table and a bigger fence
I see these leeches campin out
It's like they live in tents
I'm too advanced for your advances
Man I'm feelin godly
Russ is the wave
Nah Russ the tsunami
Te quieres casara conmigo
Yea they want me
This is for my Spanish girls in Brooklyn screaming papi
Everybody's in the same game
Different levels with it
Same hell
Different devils with it
Lemme tell you how my life feel
This past year has felt like a high light reel
I chew my beats
And I spit out anthems
If you wanna stand out gotta be outstanding
I know what I gotta do
To make my mom stop crying
Trying times doesn't mean it's time to stop trying
I'm flying with wings
That grew from leaps of faith
Feelin star struck every time I see my face
Oh that's crazy talk ain't it
I'm just gassed off my drive tho
Whole album fire
I might call the shit pyro
I could go to Saudi
Make 20 racks a night
By the time this comes out
It's probably 5 times the price
5 mics use to mean something
Nowadays I don't give a fuck
About your magazine it means nothing
I change the world by example
Not by my words
I move around with a handful of people
That know they worth
Ain't no playin us
We were born to make a dent
We understand that there's way more to life
Than just paying rent
But speaking of rent
I think we bout to lose the house
Think they repoing the cars
Think we gotta sell the couch
Think they cuttin off the lights
Think they turnin off the water
And I'm still turnin down every single label offer
Top prospect
Projected high draft pick
I'm in my own league tho
Own my own team tho
Making hooks like lay ups
And verses like free throws
I beat the game and I ain't even use a cheat code
You hatin from the stands
I'm ballin out
Peep the seats tho
Too young for this wisdom
Make them wanna check ID tho
I been psychic
Motherfuckers doubted
I suggest you listen when I talk
And shut yo mouth it's
Very evident I know some shit you don't
What you gonna do if they don't send a boat
Better learn to swim lil guppy

to be honest....

LYRICS : 

I could go deeper on the beat to be honest
I could turn your girl into a freak to be honest
Lately I aint really gettin sleep to be honest
Life been changing every week to be honest

To be honest I'm tired of my family needin money
To be honest my visions always been twenty twenty
To be honest I'm questioning where your heart lies
To be honest America means apartheid
To be honest I fuck way too many chicks raw
To be honest Saudi King might cut my dick off
To be honest white people are some terrorists
To be honest I feel a way about sharing this
To be honest my patience is runnin thin so
To be honest imma keep dropping these singles
To be honest my debut is on my iPod
To be honest fuck all that I need the lights on
To be honest my house has been feelin homeless
To be honest I kicked it at Lyor Cohen's
To be honest everybody tryna poach me
To be honest know wassup when you approach me

I could go deeper on the beat to be honest
I could turn your girl into a freak to be honest
Lately I aint really gettin sleep to be honest
Life been changing every week to be honest

To be honest my fourth grade teacher was shady
To be honest I flushed the pills my therapist gave me
To be honest my teacher sucked my school was a mess
To be honest I gave no fuck I cheated on tests
To be honest with racism I know it still exists 
To be honest they hate niggas I see it in they grin
To be honest I love my girl she satisfies me
To be honest some other pussy looks appetizing
To be honest be for god I dont believe in religion
To be honest Uncle Sam is watching you like a pigeon
To be honest I shoulda called my cousin Chuka
He havin babies tbh I shoulda called him sooner
To be honest I just focus on the fundamentals
To be honest I just hope to reach my full potential
To be honest some things too mean to verbalize
Dick riders always get they dreams circumsized 

I could go deeper on the beat to be honest
I could turn your girl into a freak to be honest
Lately I aint really gettin sleep to be honest
Life been changing every week to be honest

To be honest I think I should put my phone down
To be honest I think I should put these hoes down
To be honest I'm high and I'm drunk and that's ok
To be honest I don't feel like payin sallie mae
To be honest I think all my idols lost it
To be honest they gon notice when I walk in
To be honest it's funny you think I need you
To be honest I'm with Saudis up in Bijou
To be honest I'm kinda poppin across the ocean
To be honest fuck your label and it's cross promotion
To be honest fuck every single industry plant
To be honest look all you got is industry fans
To be honest Im taking shots and it's way too early
To be honest it's actually late my days are blurry
To be honest just know that I see everything
To be honest how'd you come to terms with settling

I could go deeper on the beat to be honest
I could turn your girl into a freak to be honest
Lately I aint really gettin sleep to be honest
Life been changing every week to be honest

LYRICS : 

Bitch I'm t'd up 
I think I drank three much
I been mixing with it too
Couple women coming through
They gon wanna t up with me too

Tanqueray got me started
Think I need a girl from Harlem
Dont act like you dont wanna get involved with me
TLC got girls tryna creep 
Dont catch feelings it aint that deep
Thrown in the studio gone fishing
Tryna catch me a freak
Damn
I need two rooms everytime I land
One for the hoes one room for the bands
She fell in love cuz of who I am
I dont give a fuck gotta stick to the plan
No strings girl gotta cut those loose
You and your friend thats one plus two
Youll be waiting here all night waiting for me to love you

Bitch I'm t'd up 
I think I drank three much
I been mixing with it too
Couple women coming through
They gon wanna t up with me too

I been t'd up thats the routine
Never switched up with a new team
I been spending i been stacking
I still got the same old hoopty 
I been helpin out the fam
I been tryna do my best
Feel the pressure everyday
Gotta get this off my chest
Always had faith it would go my way
I been t'd up for like 6 years straight 
I know what its like to do a show with less people in the crowd then the ones on stage
Bugus and me never switched up 
Always got weed we could twist up
Never let an outsider in too quick 
Got the whole game zip zipped up

Bitch I'm t'd up 
I think I drank three much
I been mixing with it too
Couple women coming through
They gon wanna t up with me too
