The Antidote
Song Meaning
Spoken rather than sung, the track amounts to a short radio-style intro from DJ Malski, who announces he is "making house calls / to the lost, the lonely, and the lit." The conceit is medical from start to finish: Lecrae and Miles Minick supply "your prescription," and listeners are told to "take it daily, play it loud, dose up your glow."
The closing line, "get well soon," frames the music as something meant to heal, a playful bedside manner wrapped around the gospel hip-hop that follows. The lyric text itself holds no verses or chorus, so the spiritual weight sits in the image of encouragement offered as medicine, close to the promise in Psalm 147:3 that God heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.
What up, it's your boy DJ Malski
And I'm making house calls
To the lost, the lonely, and the lit
This Lecrae & Miles Minick is your prescription
So take it daily, play it loud, dose up your glow
And get well soon
Ha!
