Machine Gun Kelly discussed his new tattoo, Megan Fox’s miscarriage and much more on his new single titled “Don’t Let Me Go,” which dropped on Wednesday (February 21). The Interscope Records artist admitted he struggled with suicidal thoughts as he detailed trauma in his life.

“Lately my thoughts eating me alive/Laid in the bed thinking maybe the hate’ll finally go away if I’m not alive/Wish I didn’t listen just wished they would understand me one time/I had a breakdown and tatted my entire body except one line/Everything is just fine,” he rapped.

Machine Gun Kelly said he inherited many bad qualities from his dad on the track. MGK revealed he was still running from secrets dating back to his childhood and claimed he was supposed to die at birth.

The rapper/rocker suggested he has just been playing a character who’s “broken” and “lost.” He mentioned medicating himself with “something he cannot pronounce” before reflecting on Fox’s miscarriage.

“How can I live with the fact that my hand wasn’t on her stomach when we lost the baby/I don’t got no one to turn to ‘cause everyone’s dead in my life that was trying to raise me,” he rapped.

Last year, Fox disclosed the miscarriage in her poetry book. The couple suffered the loss in 2022. Fox talked about how it affected her relationship with MGK while promoting her book on Good Morning America.

“I’ve never been through anything like that in my life,” she said. “I have three kids, so it was very difficult for both of us. And it sent us on a very wild journey together and separately, and together and apart, and together and apart, and together and apart, trying to navigate, ‘What does this mean? Why did this happen?’”
