prodigy & maxim Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I got the poison.
I got the remedy.
I got the pulsating rhythmical remedy.
I got the poison.

I got the remedy.
I got the pulsating rhythmical remedy.
I got the poison.
I got the remedy.

I got the pulsating rhythmical remedy.
I got the poison.
I got the remedy.
I got the poison. I got the poison. I got the poison.





Yeah... Yeah... Yeah...

Overall Meaning

The chorus of Prodigy and Maxim's song Poison repeats the phrase "I got the poison, I got the remedy, I got the pulsating rhythmical remedy" several times. The lyrics are simple but powerful, using the metaphor of poison to represent an irresistible desire, while the remedy represents the will to fight against it. The "pulsating rhythmical remedy" is the music itself, which is an escape from the poison and a remedy to all the vices of life.


Throughout the song, there is a clear contradiction between the poison and the remedy. On the one hand, the poison represents the dark and dangerous side of life, while the remedy represents the will to survive and overcome it. On the other hand, the song suggests that these two opposing forces are intimately connected. One cannot exist without the other, and they form an essential part of the human experience.


In conclusion, the lyrics to Prodigy and Maxim's song Poison are a powerful representation of the human condition. They speak to the enduring struggle between our desires and our will to survive, and the role that music can play in that process. The song is a classic of the electronic music genre, and its message is still relevant today.

Also 39 here, was dancing to this yesterday at the grocers. There might not be many raves because of this corona thing, but I'm dancing more than ever. And many ppl seem to be uplifted, at least they get their mind off viruses for a while. Dancing to Prodigy is a rhythmical remedy to fear.
