Lloyd Banks In The Mix Lyrics

[Chorus]
Nigga, don't go fallin' for the tricks
Nothing good'll come to you
When all up in the mix

Money, gold, and women's
What you're writin' on your list
Question if what you're losin'
Is more important than the risk

This life is a bitch
Gotta anticipate the switch
I'm questioning if
Love and loyalty really exist

It feels that way
When paper's comin' in
Hand over fist
I wonder if this shit
Comes to an end
Will you be missed?

[Verse]
Uhh! Can't appreciate where you are
Too busy thinkin'
Where you'd rather be
Things are changin'
And walls are closin'
In on you rapidly

Focus on the win
The bag overpowers the agony
Don't let nobody with bad energy
Charge your battery

Bonds that broke
Ain't even sad to me
That's how it had to be
Armory for all the savagery
Who wants a tragedy?

Beat the reaper two times to this day
Hard to imagine three
Compliments from haters flatter me
That backhand's Agassi

Can't change a f*ckin' thing
Stupid to dwell on yesterday
You'll get liquor poison
Before you drink the stress away

Coppers still wreck your day
Came a long way from pepper spray…
Still workin'
We never straight
Made man from a featherweight

There's always issues
They're careful
When pickin' party options
Groupies blendin' in
Way too old to be posse hoppin'

Claim that I'm lackin' this 24
I'm surprised he's watchin'…
Mindful when plannin' your parade
'Cause Kamikaze's droppin'

[Chorus]
Nigga, don't go
Fallin' for the tricks
Nothing good'll come to you
When all up in the mix

Money, gold, and women's
What you're writin' on your list
Question if what you're losin'
Is more important than the risk

This life is a bitch
Gotta anticipate the switch
I'm questioning if Love and loyalty really exist

It feels that way
When paper's comin' in
Hand over fist
I wonder if this shit
Comes to an end
Will you be missed?

[Verse]
You feel like
You don't give a f*ck?
Well, I don't give one either
Days won't wait for no one
Time will make you a believer

Gotta a stab plate on my chest and back
Learned that lesson from Caesar...
When you can't provide for people's
When they message you at leisure

And it happens
More than often now
I guess it's a procedure
I can see through words
Ain't gotta be a
Open book to read ya

All my numbers
Had to switch up
No more lies on my receiver
There's flaws in every human
Shit, don't idolize me either

Now time feels like it's racin'
No more room to be complacent
You watch your chance
Fly right by you
When planning moves too patient
Vultures, snakes, and gorillas
The animals you're caged with

Attention-seekers leeching
You're a slave to your engagement
Know who to play with?
The roof will cave in
This game'll have you hallucinatin'
Close friends are lookin' like enemies
The illusion's basic

This land is rigged for the upper
No tellin' who can change it
They want you in jail
Bands from Chanel
Reduce the bracelets

[Chorus]
Nigga, don't go
Fallin' for the tricks
Nothing good'll come to you
When all up in the mix

Money, gold, and women's
What you're writin' on your list
Question if what you're losin'
Is more important than the risk

This life is a bitch
Gotta anticipate the switch
I'm questioning if
Love and loyalty really exist

It feels that way
When paper's comin' in
Hand over fist
I wonder if this shit
Comes to an end
Will you be missed?

'Cause I ain't convinced
