Opening with a gritty guitar chord, “Poison” leads into Rayman’s gravelly vocals that embody his indubitable passion from within. Rayman willingly exposes his diminishing mental state as he discusses the sickness he is seemingly facing all while bashing how toxic his body has become.

[Verse 1]
Poison slowly seeps, I fall asleep again
Mother puts her hand to my head, I am sick, but I'm not dead
I just need some sleep, I need some rest
I need some healthy friends
Just one more fix before I kick this ugly trend
[Pre-Chorus]
I haven't cooked, my body, it hurts
My belly aches, it wants to burst
I've got the shakes, I start to shake
I've got the shakes, I've got the shakes
[Chorus]
Mmm, mama knows I'm not okay
Ooh, I'm not myself today
[Verse 2]
I pricked love today for love pricked me again
I beat love down to a pulp, and then I build it up again
I just like love, and I live love
Can she come kill my loneliness?
Just one more kiss before I kick this ugly trend
[Pre-Chorus]
This one's for the books, you won't relate
I'm on the hook, I can't be late
White rabbit chased an early grave
I sink into my happy place
[Chorus]
Mmm, mother knows I'm not okay
Ooh, I'm not myself today
