The Return Lyrics - Machine Gun Kelly

And they say they know me 

'the fuck outta here 

only god knows what I been through man 

So if you wanna talk 

get your facts straight first 

and if you really wanna know 

let me ask you something 

Have you ever walked in the shoes of a giant? 

Or had to fill the position of a boss

NEW SONG: Machine Gun Kelly - 'Candy' Lyrics feat. Trippie Redd 

LATEST SONG: Fat Joe, Dre, Lil Wayne - 'Pullin' - LYRICS 

before you were even a client? 

It's no wonder growing up under the roof of a tyrant 

that I would be the poster boy for defiance 

Now I'm the voice of the silence 

Fuck being quiet 

Ive seen 20 years worth of violence 

I'm tired 

It's a burden for me to open my eyelids 

Not an undercover cop 

But it's safe to say that I'm wired 

I cant even get a grip of my life with pliers 

I'm fucked up in the head 

Close my eyes cause I see demons 'round my bed 

So depressed open 'em up hoping I'm dead 

Thought the fame would make it better 

but it only fucked me over 

Never used to touch a bottle 

Now I'm hardly ever sober 

People wanna be my friend? 

But where the fuck were y'all when I was 10 

eleven and twelve getting bullied 

and beat up in the gym 

I couldn't ever get a girl 

Now all a sudden I'm the man 

students try to get back cool with me again 

fuck em all 

Because guess where they gon' be 

when my records stop playing 

gone with the wind 

off of the records I'm saying 

that Kells fell off 

I knew it would happen 

Stop hating 

cause a month ago you was all over my jock 

saying that I'm that mother fucker 

but now I'm whack mother fucker? 

Photos 

OPINIONS CHANGE but you cannot change facts mother fucker 

If you want bullet point than call me a gat a mother fucker 

I lay my whole life out like a mat mother fucker 

and I've experienced some things that would stop you from eating 

My schizophrenic cousin tried to end my life while I'm sleeping 

My bummy uncle wanna call now that he sees me succeeding 

My momma left me for a teacher 

I lost my dad to the preaching 

Half my friends are buried 6 feet 

all the rest in the precinct 

Literally watched my grandmother die from diabetes 

I guess my prayers were answered 

When my aunt got cancer and beat it 

Now I wanna get her outta job 

Give her the garden of Eden 

I did a lot of bad shit 

God got even 

But for the price I had to pay 

I wish I'd stop breathing 

My girl sat in the bath tub 

8 hours bleeding 

hearing the doctor tell us our child's heart stopped beating 

Fuck a million 

I wouldn't take a doller for a life 

but i will do whats in my heart 

and trade this dollar for a mic 

I wrote this song in hopes 

that it could help someone get through the night 

but no intentions of getting paid 

I'm just doing what is right 

I do it for the fans 

No the real fans 

Who stuck wit me through the storm 

Cause they understand 

That there's a genuine pain 

behind the words I'm saying 

And they embrace me 

So I thank y'all for staying 

Ain't it crazy? 

That passion is my Achilles heel 

either that or keeping it way to real 

But they don't know how it feels 

To feed off the energy of a crowd 

Step on stage and they get loud 

And dad, Imma make you proud 

I know we don't speak right now 

But I think turning new leaves what we need right now 

I love you 

And you may not see right now 

But I'm begging for forgiveness 

I'm on my knees right now 

You saw your son as a dropout 

Stuck around when I ran 

Saw your son as a felon 

Now see your son as a man 

See your son be a father 

To a beautiful child 

Or just see your son dad 

See me smile 

Who would've thought what started at the bottom 

Would someday grow 

From 3 people in the crowd 

Unpaid shows 

6 people in the room 

1 meal a day 

Another opening act where no one knows my name 

saw the demos that I passed out 

laying on the ground 

Saw the rappers I befriended copying my style 

Saw opportunities passed 

While these fakes got rich 

Now I can't stop speeding 

Like my brakes ain't shit 

For 6 months I went through hell and back 

Right at the height of my success 

all of a sudden doctors said I couldn't rap 

I had a polyp on my vocal chords 

left with a choice 

stop now or possibly lose my voice 

but I woke up every morning 

and recorded till my throat swelled shut 

coughed blood up after every show 

cause it hurt that much 

I went weeks without even saying a word to myself 

No health insurance so the bills piled up on the shelf 

rap for my daughter and my fam 

and every single fan 

I pushed through it now I'm back for y'all again 

as for my competition 

this the beginning of the end 

but right now this is my return 

Amen 

Kells 

And they say they know me 

'the fuck outta here
