A standout single from Juice WRLD’s sophomore album, Death Race for Love (2019), “Robbery” is a masterclass in melodramatic, emotionally gripping rap. Produced by the legendary Nick Mira (who also crafted “Lucid Dreams”), the track features a compelling, mournful keyboard line and heavy trap drums, setting the stage for Juice WRLD’s impassioned performance. Lyrically, the song uses the powerful metaphor of a “robbery” to describe a toxic, all-consuming relationship where his heart was stolen and left for dead. The raw, unfiltered emotion in his delivery, particularly the climactic moments of the chorus, resonated deeply with fans navigating intense, turbulent love lives. The track’s success proved that Goodbye & Good Riddance was no fluke, cementing Juice WRLD’s position as a major artist. For listeners searching for Nick Mira production, popular heartbreak rap songs, or Juice WRLD’s top streaming hits, “Robbery” is an indispensable piece of his powerful, yet tragic, narrative.
One thing my heart tells me is, “Flex on a hoe every time they’re insecure”
I guess you came through
I’m running from you
Was your love for real? (For real? For real?)
Is your love really true?
She told me put my heart in the bag (In the bag)
And nobody gets hurt (Nobody)
Now I’m running from her love, I’m not fast (Fast)
So I’m making it worse (Making it worse)
Now I’m digging up a grave, from my past
I’m a whole different person (A whole different person)
It’s a gift and a curse (A gift and a curse)
But I cannot reverse it
You gave me the runaround
I really hate the runaround
You really got me paranoid
I always keep a gun around
You always give me butterflies
When you come around
When you come around
When you come around
Quotable lyrics
