Miesa Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Verse I:
Oh, something inside of me knows
I need to leave u alone...
I might need to breathe on my own

Prehook:
I need to let this go
I need to let u go
But you've got such a hold on me
That done grown on me
Need control of me

Hook
(But how)
How can I clear my mind, when my only mind falls to you
(But how)
How do I clear my plans, when the only plan, I know is you
I need that dose that u bring, that fix when I breathe... one you
Everybody like go girl, let go, but don't nobody hold
The antidote

Verse 2
Oh, something inside of me knows
I need to leave this alone
With all the damage it's done to my health
Done to my health...

Prehook:
I need to let this go
I need to let u go
But you've got such a hold on me
That done grown on me
Need control of me

Hook
(But how)
How can I clear my mind, when my only mind falls to you
(But how)
How do I clear my plans, when the only plan, I know is you
I need that dose that u bring, that fix when I breathe... one you
Everybody like go girl, let go, but don't nobody hold
The antidote

Bridge:
The make it right
The solution
The lonely nights
The pollution
The crave
And the fight
And the want
The need of you

Hook
(But how)
How can I clear my mind, when my only mind falls to you
(But how)
How do I clear my plans, when the only plan, I know is you
I need that dose that u bring, that fix when I breathe... one you
Everybody like go girl, let go, but don't nobody hold





Antidote (4x)

Overall Meaning

In Miesa's song Antidote, the lyrics speak of a person who is struggling to let go of someone who has a hold on them. The first verse starts with the person acknowledging that something inside of them knows they need to leave this person alone and breathe on their own. The pre-hook repeats that they need to let go, but this person has such a strong hold on them that they need them to control them. The chorus asks how they can clear their mind and make new plans when this person is always on their mind, and they need the fix they bring.


In the second verse, the person admits that this relationship has caused damage to their health and that they need to leave it alone. The repeating pre-hook and chorus show that this person is struggling to move on, despite acknowledging that it's necessary. The bridge speaks of the struggle this person is facing, including the loneliness, the pollution of their life, the craving, and the fight to let go. The chorus ends with the repeated phrase "antidote," perhaps indicating that this person is searching for a cure for their feelings of attachment to this person.
