death in my pocket

Machine Gun Kelly (mgk)

I got death in my pocket and nothing but time
All these bones in the closet, in the back of my mind
I just leave em there, I don t even care, no
Holding up the flare, I could use a prayer, oh
I got death in my pocket, but I feel so alive

Don t know, why but it feels like my world is crashing down
I just bought a brand
(Fuck)
Don t know why, but it feels like my world is crashing down
I just bought a brand new car, I want to crash it now
How much darkness does it take to get this flashy now?
I lose a piece of my soul when the camera flashes
So I m asking every fan who s questioning my passion
Thinking I m caught up in fashion or that I forgot my past
I understand that I m just a dropout
I don t have the answer
I became a dad so young
I ain t know how to use them Pampers
Baby mama s food stamps kept my stomach full
I had to make a plan
cause now my family needed me to make a wrap
And me and Slim back at that address
Hundred twenty eight, we trapping
Writing lyrics down on napkins
Room so small, we share a mattress
Look what happened

I got death in my pocket and nothing but time
All these bones in the closet, in the back of my mind
I just leave em there, I don t even care, no
Holding up the flare, I could use a prayer, oh
I got death in my pocket, but I feel so alive

Don t know how I get so high, but I m not passing out
I guess the drugs are in my blood, hope I don t pass it down
Hope I m allowed to see my baby get a cap and gown
Cause doctors told my daddy won t be here a year from now
Yeah, my first reaction is to punch in the wall
until it s cracking
Both my knuckles shattered
don t ask what the fuck s the matter
I ve been battling the fact I lost my closest to cancer
The only thing she asked was for me and him to get closer
But I hung up too fast, went to sleep in and then she passed
You ve been silent seven years, it took that to get us back
We all needed second chances, I ve been bottling the sadness
I guess I m just happy that we finally
got to bury shit before the casket

I got death in my pocket and nothing but time
All these bones in the closet, in the back of my mind
I just leave em there, I don t even care, no
Holding up the flare, I could use a prayer, oh
I got death in my pocket, but I feel so alive

I think I m ready to die tonight
It s fucked up cause I ain t lived half my life
I saw the devil and passed him like
You tryna fuck up my afterlife
But I don t even care, you can keep me there, yeah
Holding up a flare, I needed a prayer, yeah
I got death in my pocket
But I feel so alive
