Antidote
Knife Party ft Swedish House Mafia Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Take this motherfo' up, start a riot
Don't stop, turn that up, take it higher
Take this motherfo' up, start a riot
There's a glitch inside my system
Rushing through my whole existence
Got me twisted, can't resist this
Something's flipping all my switches
Mix it up and mass appeal it
Pressure is riding me hard
Killer dose right through my heart
And there's no antidote
And there's no antidote
And there's no antidote
And there's no antidote
There's no antidote
There's no antidote
The lyrics of "Antidote" by Knife Party ft Swedish House Mafia is a complex and intense piece with a powerful message. The lines "Don't stop, turn that up, take it higher, take this motherfo' up, start a riot" is a call for action, asking the listener to turn up the music and let it take over, to turn up the volume and let the energy take over their body, and to let the music take charge and bring about change.
The lyrics further delve into the feeling of being taken over by the music, with "There's a glitch inside my system, rushing through my whole existence, got me twisted, can't resist this, something's flipping all my switches." The music is so powerful that it feels like a glitch, something taking over the system and flipping switches in the listener's mind.
The lyrics also mention the pressures and challenges that come with being a part of the music industry, with "Pressure is riding me hard, killer dose right through my heart." The pressure and intensity of the music industry can be overwhelming and take a toll on those involved, but there is no antidote, no way to escape the rush and intensity of the music.
