Navigating Turmoil: The Raw Confessions of Machine Gun Kelly in 'GTS'

Machine Gun Kelly's song 'GTS' is a raw and unfiltered exploration of personal struggles and the coping mechanisms he employs to deal with them. The repeated refrain, 'I ain't taking calls, I be going through shit,' sets the tone for the entire track, emphasizing a sense of isolation and the overwhelming nature of his experiences. MGK's refusal to communicate with others highlights his need to retreat inward, suggesting that his battles are too intense to share or explain to those around him.

The lyrics delve into MGK's past, marked by substance abuse and a tumultuous lifestyle. He references smoking everything in his inventory and the 'gory' nature of his past, painting a picture of a life filled with chaos and self-destructive behavior. The mention of characters like Cory from 'Boy Meets World' and Dory from 'Finding Nemo' adds a layer of cultural reference, illustrating his feelings of being lost and searching for direction. The imagery of pouring up drinks until he throws up further underscores his reliance on substances to numb his pain and escape reality.

MGK's verses also touch on his sense of frustration and anger, particularly towards those who underestimate him or fail to recognize his talent. He questions why his albums are often overlooked and expresses a desire to prove his worth. The aggressive tone and references to violence, such as kicking like Johnny Cage from 'Mortal Kombat,' reflect his inner turmoil and the rage he feels towards the world. Ultimately, 'GTS' is a candid portrayal of MGK's mental and emotional state, offering listeners a glimpse into the darker aspects of his life and the ongoing battle he faces within himself.
