Robbery

Juice WRLD's 'Robbery' is a poignant reflection on love, loss, and the struggle to move on from a past relationship. The song's lyrics paint a vivid picture of the emotional turmoil that comes with heartbreak, using metaphors to describe the pain and confusion experienced by the artist. The opening lines, where he's told to 'put my heart in the bag,' suggest a metaphorical robbery of his emotions, indicating that the relationship has left him feeling vulnerable and exposed.

As the song progresses, Juice WRLD describes his attempts to escape the lingering feelings for his ex-lover, acknowledging that his efforts are futile and only make things worse. The 'grave' he mentions digging for his past symbolizes his desire to bury his old self and the memories associated with the failed relationship. However, he admits that he's become 'a whole different person,' highlighting the transformative impact of the experience, which is both a 'gift and a curse.' The inability to 'reverse it' underscores the permanence of the change and the indelible mark left on his heart.

The song also touches on themes of insecurity and self-medication, as Juice WRLD references advice from his father and his own coping mechanisms. The use of alcohol and drugs to numb the pain is evident, and the artist's internal conflict is laid bare as he grapples with the desire to be with his ex despite knowing that love is not the answer. 'Robbery' is a raw and honest portrayal of the complexities of love and the self-destructive behaviors that can arise from trying to heal a broken heart.
