\n\tMachine Gun Kelly<\/a> returned to the rap side with his piano-laden \u201cDont Let Me Go\u201d single Wednesday (Feb. 21), which he quickly followed up with an evocative visual.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe desolate tune finds MGK revealing a \u201cbreakdown\u201d that led to his new massive blackout tattoo <\/a>while he also touches on his shattered relationship with his late father, substance abuse, mental health issues and more contributing to his downfall.<\/p>\n

\t\t\t\t\tMachine Gun Kelly Debuts Massive Blackout Tattoo \u2018For Spiritual Purposes\u00a0Only\u2019\t\t<\/p>\n<\/h3><\/div>\n

\n\t\u00a0\u201cJust like I wish they would understand me one time\/ I had a breakdown and tatted my entire body except one line,\u201d he admits.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe clip is kept simple for the most part, with MGK looking directly into the lens\u2019 soul with the backdrops jumping from him on the piano to the dark woods and the city skyline of Cleveland.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cBefore my dad left to serve\/ He made sure I took on every quality I didn\u2019t want\/ I was supposed to die at birth\/ Gave me a chance and I f\u2014ed it up, give me another one,\u201d Kells raps in brutally honest fashion.<\/p>\n

\n\tMachine Gun Kelly references the miscarriage his\u00a0fianc\u00e9e Megan Fox suffered, which she opened up about in her poetry book<\/a> last year. \u201cI\u2019ve never been through anything like that in my life,\u201d the actress asserted.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cHow can I live with the fact\/ That my hand wasn\u2019t on her stomach when we lost the baby?\/ I don\u2019t got no one to turn to\/ Because everyone\u2019s dead in my life that was tryna raise me,\u201d he raps.<\/p>\n

\n\tMGK hit the stage at the 2022 Billboard Music Awards <\/a>and dedicated a performance of Mainstream Sellout<\/em>\u2018s \u201cTwin Flame\u201d to his unborn child.<\/p>\n

\n\tEarlier this week, the \u201cBloody Valentine\u201d artist blacked out his upper body with a jarring tattoo covering his entire chest and arms. \u201cFor spiritual purposes only,\u201d he captioned a post of the new ink. The piece reportedly<\/a> took 13 different six-hour sessions in Los Angeles to complete.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Cleveland native\u2019s last rap album came in 2019 with Hotel Diablo, <\/em>and he appears to be headed down that path once again following his lucrative two-album rock pivot. 2022\u2019s Mainstream Sellout<\/em> debuted at No. 1 atop the Billboard 200<\/a> with 93,000 album units sold. <\/p>\n

\n\tWatch the \u201cDont Let Me Go\u201d video below.<\/p>\n
