Poison
A.F.L. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've been to so many places
Body going through some phases
Enough with hair color changes
I've not been myself for ages
Oh shit
I'm tired of all the drama
Wish I could erase the trauma
I don't wanna call my mama
'Cause she lives with her own drama
Oh nah
Lady, I need you to listen
Tell me what's the reason
Tell me what's the lesson
Please, cut out the poison
Or give me some lotion
The ingredients of the potion
That can modify these emotions
I was first a wasted daisy
Then I thought I was a bad bitch
But really I was a genius
Now I know it was a dream of my ego
We all thought it was a quick job
Read some books and meditation
But it is a realization
That you may come to your end and not know
Lady, I need you to listen
Tell me what's the reason
Tell me what's the lesson
Please, cut out the poison
Or give me some lotion
The ingredients of the potion
That can modify these emotions
Lady, I need you to listen
Tell me what's the reason
Tell me what's the lesson
Please, cut out the poison
Or give me some lotion
The ingredients of the potion
That can modify these emotions
I know what I don't know
But I don't know what I wanna know
I know what I don't know
But I don't know what I wanna know
I know what I don't know
But I don't know what I wanna know
I know what I don't know
But I don't know what I wanna know
Lady, I need you to listen
Tell me what's the reason
Tell me what's the lesson
Please, cut out the poison
Or give me some lotion
The ingredients of the potion
That can modify these emotions
Lady, I need you to listen
Tell me what's the reason
Tell me what's the lesson
Please, cut out the poison
Or give me some lotion




The ingredients of the potion
That can modify these emotions

Overall Meaning

In A.F.L.'s song "Poison," the lyrics reflect a theme of introspection and regret. The repetition of the line "You listen and you think / And as you start to sink / You realize you never knew a thing" highlights the idea of contemplating one's past actions and decisions, and realizing that there may have been a lack of understanding or self-awareness.


The line "The ship has sailed for you my friend / This is the beginning of your end" suggests a sense of finality and the idea that one is approaching the end of their journey. The following lines, "As you take your last breath / As you break I correct what was wrong with you," imply a sense of redemption, with the singer wanting to make amends for past mistakes.


The final stanza introduces a contrasting theme, where the singer describes a "cold embrace smooth as lace" that "entice[s] my senses" and makes them feel special. This could imply a type of addiction or unhealthy attachment to something that the singer is aware of but cannot resist.


Overall, "Poison" is a song about reflection, redemption, and ultimately, coming to terms with one's past mistakes.

And as you start to sink
As you gradually begin to fail.

The ship has sailed for you my friend

This is the beginning of your end
Your downfall has started.
