tell me whats up

Machine Gun Kelly (mgk)

Ayy, I m doin this like nobody s listening
Like I m just writing for myself
but, uh-um, whatever

I used to ride the Blue line
straight from school to work
They robbed me for my Beats by Dre s on 79th
I was in first grade when I learned how to curse
I got friends that didn t make it to be twenty-nine
It s all a simulation anyways
That s the only way that I could justify
These glitches in the system
I took LSD for thirty days
X-rays showed holes in my brain
I lost memories, things are different
I lost contact, sky s the limit
Even with the ability to hav? a fuck, I wouldn t give it
Everyone s att?ntion span too short
to be specific
I made so many songs that
when I m gone, I m never finished
Codependent when I m isolated
I m reminded that the voices I silenced are still coexisting
I watched porn and was mad I did it
Went to church
Put extra in the collection plate just for sinning

Yeah, uh, tell me what the fuck s up
I don t wanna go out, everybody sucks
Agoraphobic in this house don t help much
Yeah, uh, tell me what the fuck s up
I don t wanna go out (Uh) , everybody sucks (Uh)
Agoraphobic in this house don t help much (Yeah)

I m goin home to the city
I m goin rogue from the Illuminati theories
About how I ve been winning
My soul was always prone to new beginnings
They told me, Pick a genre, I picked em all
And flow with whatever moves me like I m swimming
But I m just one of many artists
tryna spark a renaissance
Of speaking our thoughts so we can stop pretending
They skipped the body of work because of how I m dressing
At least my public crucifixion
got the message spreading
I was gonna turn the volume down
But then I realized that I like this song
More than I like you
I typed a couple pages out that I know I ll regret sending
So I ll keep it short, like a haiku, okay

Yeah, uh, tell me what the fuck s up
I don t wanna go out, everybody sucks
Agoraphobic in this house don t help much
(Wake up like) Yeah, uh, tell me what the fuck s up
I don t wanna go out (Uh) , everybody sucks (Uh)
Agoraphobic in this house don t help much

(Mm-mm, mm-mm)
It s been about forty-five seconds
since my last cigarette
(Mm-mm, mm-mm)
This the only vice I got right now
being sober sucks

Yo, I m so Pisces
all my answers are planetary
I can t get the word depression out my vocabulary
I got Viking blood pumping through my capillaries
So it s no secret how I defeated all my adversaries
I need a New Year s resolution like it s January
I used to drown in a pint of vodka and cranberry
Cause underwater, you can t hear all of the commentary
And my wallet s lighter
from sendin my homies commissary
We keep it silent where I m from
it s not a lot of sharing
And I m not in a cell
but all my problems solitary
Therapy came and helped me
Lift some of this weight I m bearing
Double-Xs on my neck
Express what I hold honorary, gang, gang

Yeah, uh, tell me what the fuck s up
I don t wanna go out, everybody sucks
Agoraphobic in this house don t help much
(Wake up like) Yeah, uh, tell me what the fuck s up
I don t wanna go out (Uh) , everybody sucks (Uh)
Agoraphobic in this house don t help much

If I can t make you smile, then would you smile again?
(Uh, tell me what the fuck s up)
Uh, tell me what the fuck s up
If you can help me laugh, then help me laugh again
(Yeah, uh, tell me what the fuck s u-up)

Whole album made right here in my living room
Yeah, I still wish we kept
that line that s like
With the same crew, though, at dinner eatin hamachi crudo
My brother Rook don t eat nothin but cheeseburgers
Haha, if you know, you know, yeah
Day ones
