“Everything is my fault when you're me. I don't know why.”
“And when you play this song, hold your head high, motherfucker, don't ever look down, be comfortable with who you are, our flaws are what makes us perfect”
“The normal MGK reaction that everyone expects is for me to be angry and go off, because my history shows that's the type of attitude I'm bringing to the table.”
“I love looking at pictures of me in 2012-2017, because every single one of those Machine Gun Kellys looks different.”
“I was never supposed to get a record deal - that's one in a million.”
“I was really excited about 'Nerve' with Dave Franco and Emma Roberts.”
“Every time I perform, I always try to have that 'wow' factor.”
“I don't want to feel like the cool kid in the crowd who doesn't want to do what the artist's saying. I want to be so in awe of the artist that I'm literally jumping up and down, even if I've got on brand new Louboutins.”
“As soon as 'General Admission' came out, there was a whole new pain that hit me that was rougher than I could imagine.”
“I've had more life experiences than most people that are older than me.”
“As I was coming up, there was so much naysaying, there was so much doubt, whether it was from my peers or people in the industry.”
“I actually have an Avenged Sevenfold tattoo on my body.”
“I'm fortunate to have a baby girl who's super into everything that I say and do and really cooperative and just fun to be around. I couldn't imagine having a rebellious kid like me.”
“I just keep getting inspired to believe that dreams come true and anything can happen, 'cause I've watched so many impossible things happen.”
“I've never been comfortable with sharing anything: I was a single child.”
“It seems like I'm one of those people that has the personality where, if I win an award, I wake up the next day, and I'm like 'Oh, but I didn't win this award though, or this didn't happen.'”
“Honestly, I look in the mirror, and I'm not the greatest looking kid.”
“'Cleveland' went viral, but it didn't necessarily pop. I didn't have that support. I didn't have a deal when I made 'Cleveland' or anything like that.”
“I don't think that my music without pain is good music - and I wouldn't know, because I haven't made any music without pain.”
“When the universe throws something your way, or things happen, I'm one of those people that goes with it, and I don't fight it.”
