Russ Can’t Be Me

It’s about that time for your regularly scheduled Russ release. The independent artist never ceases to share new music with fans, regardless of his projects or anything else he may be working on. Russ practices what he preaches as he advises other artists to own the rights to their music and to take the reigns when navigating their careers. The Shake the Snow Globe rapper-singer has done just that and amassed a dedicated following by implementing his own rules to the industry.

Russ – Can’t Be Me (prod. Russ)

Lyrics

[Intro]
Yeah, hmm

[Chorus]
Nah, it can’t be me
Bein’ one of those ones, nah
Who doesn’t get shit done (Uh)
Wonder why they never won (Hm)
Nah, it can’t be me (Hm)
Lettin’ time go to waste (Nah), sittin’ around all day (Uh)
Never makin’ shit shake (Nah)
Nah, it can’t be me

[Verse 1]
Gotta get it how I got it (Yeah)
Always on go, I ain’t ’bout to start stoppin’ (Yeah)
Family can’t afford for me not to be poppin’ (Yeah)
Rich is in the mind, not in your wallet
So I gotta keep my mind right (Yeah)
So that my stars align (Yeah, ayy)
Mix a little passion with persistence (Uh)
Next thing you know you got listens (Uh)
Next thing you know you got riches (Now, now)
These are for the ones that say, “Look, I’m next”
All life long, gotta keep your foot on necks (Uh)
Lead by example if you wanna put the people on the around you Better make sure you put on best (Hm)

[Chorus]
Nah, it can’t be me
Bein’ one of those ones, nah
Who doesn’t get shit done (Uh)
Wonder why they never won (Hm)
Nah, it can’t be me (Hm)
Lettin’ time go to waste (Nah), sittin’ around all day (Uh)
Never makin’ shit shake (Nah)
Nah, it can’t be me

[Verse 2]
You been with somebody for probably longer than cool (Yeah)
You been gettin’ comfortable, somethin’ you shouldn’t do
In your twenties now, money now, seems to be a goal (Yeah)
Girl puttin’ pressure on you seems to take a toll
Got a job now, tryna call out ’cause you miserable
Livin’ for you and her, you ain’t livin’ individual (Yeah)
So you die a little inside each day
Keep pushin’ dreams back like release dates
Now you start to resent her, oh no
You’ve been with it for decade, but you feelin’ solo (Yeah)
Plus, her mom’s on your back and your palms need a scratch
And you really tryna leave JoJo (Yeah)
But you in too deep, so you cheat
Yeah, it’s weak, but at least you got a ladder out the shit (Yeah)
Tryna start a family, she been askin’ for it
Man, I really can’t imagine this shit (Hmm)

[Chorus]
Nah, it can’t be me (Hell no)
Bein’ one of those ones, nah
Who doesn’t get shit done (Uh)
Wonder why they never won (Hm)
Nah, it can’t be me (Hm)
Lettin’ time go to waste, nah, sittin’ around all day (Uh)
Never makin’ shit shake (Nah)
Nah, it can’t be me
