Machine Gun Kelly – 5:3666 lyrics
(feat. phem)

[Chorus: phem]
Some days, I feel like I let myself down
I love my life, gonna run it in the ground
Can't sleep for days, got your name in my brain
Can't sleep for days, gotta stay up, stay up forever

[Verse 1: Machine Gun Kelly]
I'm writing this at 5:3666 in the morning
Wide awake still, not even yawning
Not even sure why I'm up at dawn like I'm celebrating
When my agent told me that no one's calling
It's a ounce in my living room on the couch
Next to a couple homies that smoked it and passed out
So I'm alone with my thoughts in this glass house
In the cabinet are glass vials, I just poured all the last out
I smelled her, now she's on my mind
I met her the first time my light turned lime
Hate it when she's gone, but she ain't hard to find
Left her on my desk, she made designs in little lines

[Pre-Chorus: Machine Gun Kelly]
It's 5:3666
It's 5:3666

[Chorus: phem]
Some days, I feel like I let myself down
I love my life, gonna run it in the ground
Can't sleep for days, got your name in my brain
Can't sleep for days, gotta stay up, stay up forever

[Verse 2: Machine Gun Kelly]
Ayy, look, I'm writing this at 5:3666 in the evening
In my head, talking to these demons (Demons)
In my bed, staring at these ceilings
I just bleached my hair and changed my whole appearance
I'm just fed up with these smoke and mirrors
My uncle sold some pictures of me with no clearance
What the fuck is family? I can't take that serious
Thank God everybody sucks so I can write these lyrics
Go pick her up, I need to lift my spirits
They don't know that we hook up, I don't let cameras near us
There's some shit I do, when she's around, I shouldn't share

Like that week I spent locked in a room with her in Paris (Fuck)

[Pre-Chorus: Machine Gun Kelly]
It's 5:3666 (Yeah)
It's 5:3666

[Chorus: phem & Machine Gun Kelly]
Some days, I feel like I let myself down
I love my life, gonna run it in the ground
Can't sleep for days, got your name in my brain (Name in my brain)
Can't sleep for days, gotta stay up, stay up forever

[Outro: Machine Gun Kelly]
It's 5:3666 (Yeah)
It's 5:3666 (Man)
It's 5:3666 (Yeah)
Somebody, tell me why I'm still awake
It's 5:3666

    Thus song is about colsons public use of cocaine and other substances. He has been very open about his problem in drugs and was going through a very rough time in 2019 using drugs to cope. In this song he references a lot of the things that happened making him spiral into this. Ironically, the music video for 53:666 he is led on the bottom of a spiral staircase, solidating my point. He talks about being up at 5:3666 in the morning and smoking something but describing this thing as a woman. I think he chose to describe it as a woman to try and humanise it.

    I think it is a play on words. I'm pretty sure he's talking about 5:36AM after long nights of torturous thoughts. The 666 is the symbol of Satan. Meaning he's writing the song at 5:3666 is referencing a long night of devilish thoughts. It's a literary element of some kind but i cannot remember what it is.

    This song is about drugs being described as a women, you listen to the song with that mindset, you can tell how sad it is. Mgk was obviously in a very dark place in the making of this song. I truly hope he’s doing much better tho. All love mgk.
