(What?) I am the alpha, I am the omega
(Ah) I am the alpha, I am the omega
(Ayy) I am the alpha, I am the omega mgk – Alpha Omega
Alpha Omega is the beginning and the end. It’s me being extremely cocky and confident, saying I was the start of a lot of trends and things that I’m not credited for. I ignited the value of what a performance should be. I put a lot of pressure of motherfuckers to step their performances way up.
When I say omega it’s because I’m gonna be around ’til the end. I’m gonna stay in this motherfucker for the long run and keep reinventing myself. Grown men and women fans, I’ll be part of their lives forever. And because I’m part of their lives, I’ll be a part of their children’s lives and their children’s lives.
Heroes get remembered, but legends never die.

Alpha Omega is mocking Christianity, and the music video is extremely satanic. I thought kells would be the last person to hop on the satanic band wagon but there he goes. You lost a fan with your satanist bull shit.
That was a real scenario, the .40 Glock next to the orange plastic prescription bottles.
I was speaking on opiates. Prescription drugs, but the downers. The shit when you induce or snort and you’re dazed.
The peer pressure part comes in when everyone around you is doing the same thing.

Would the people I used to be friends with never left?
What if making a name didn't come with regrets?
I think that fame's a pre-cursor to death:
Death of a friendship
Death of a family
Death of a man
The misunderstood are always dead before "they" understand mgk (Ft. Lzzy Hale) – Spotlight
This lifestyle leads to the death of something. How extreme the death is gonna be depends on the person. On a small scale: the death of privacy. Your face is out there, nobody’s gonna fuckin’ leave you alone.
Death of friendships: You lose friends because people think they’re owed something. They see you gettin’ it and they don’t realize that money doesn’t magically fall out the air just cause you’re famous.
On an extreme scale, take the Amy Winehouses or the Kurt Cobains. Fame could be the death of you. I feel like some of my soul has fucking died in this fucking industry.

True happiness means never loosing connection to your soul. Nothing is worth loosing yourself over. Just be true to you
And we didn't have this rap shit all we had was metal?
You telling me if we couldn't shoot a ball
Our lives still got shooting involved? mgk (Ft. Lzzy Hale) – Spotlight
That was geared towards friends of mine that I’ve grown up with that still live at their parents’ house and live everyday not knowing if tomorrow’s gonna come. Hustling everyday. Cleveland is constantly becoming crazier—the real-life Gotham City. The only people you see making it are the motherfuckers getting football scholarships.
You’re telling me because I don’t know how to shoot this fucking basketball or throw this football, that I have to stay here? That was just one of those social issues: not speaking for myself, but speaking for everyone else in the community feeling hopeless. Athletes—that’s all people come to our city for.

To live in the spotlight
All of my demons come to life
And all that it was
And all that it could be
Is lost in the darkness of the night
Why should I die? (To live in the spotlight)
Why should I kill myself for you?
You'd let me die (To live in the spotlight)
You'd let me die inside for you mgk (Ft. Lzzy Hale) – Spotlight
“Spotlight” is the most appropriate album intro because being in the spotlight these past couple of years is what inspired all of these demons to come to life. That was a big tool for my writing.
In this song, every line has it’s own story. Every sentence is really a paragraph. It’s kind of the outline for the album for everybody who’s about to listen.

To earn my right to these diamonds and gold mgk (Ft. Sean McGee) – D&G
i love this statement. this is me basically shouting, “how dare you call me a sell out just because I’m wearing a piece of jewelry. i EARNED whatever it is that i treat myself to, and i don’t think twice about it because i know i never had to compromise who i am to get it.”

~ Jasmine :)
Hey man, just wanted to let you know that you are a huge inspiration to move forward every day to a lot of people. Your songs are the reason a lot of people find ways to move on from the daily bullshit they face. Listening to your music is an escape for me and my friends in STL and can’t wait to see you live again.
Thanks for staying true to you and being true to yourself, because without some of your music, this might not have been possible to write.
Thanks,
@DGrissom295 on Twitter
you music has inspired me so much, i started rapping because of you. granted i’m not that good. Its something i love and its all because of my all time favorite artist.
Much Love, Lace up!
u and shady are the best why dont u make a collab with him
I support stillshady’s idea, you should make a collab with marshall
Dude, your music changed my life so much. You are truly an inspiration to me and my family.
Never change man.
After I graduate from Job Corps i plan to see you for my first concert!
LACE THE FUCK UP!
EST for life <3
Man I found out about you maybe 1 month before you got signed to your label. your music inspires me everyday and gets me through all the fucking crap I go through daily..I hope to see you very soon in Montreal.
LACE THE FUCK UP and EST4LIFE.
nice. way to keep it real!

At the end of the road
I’ll be pavin' my own way
To the top I’ll be here to stay
So take my name
Remember this face
Keep the change and have a nice day
And live for the moment not by the past
Homie live each day like it’s your last……The best song ever for really MGK u da man
You are an inspiration to so many people because you got where you are without changing who you are. I listened to a lot of your older stuff, not knowing it was old, and it sounds just as hype and incredible as your new stuff. Stay who you are. Oh and LACE UP!
At first I thought It was Supernatural reference about making a deal with a crossrad demon.
Eminem and MGK can’t collaborate because of the beef between MGK and Yelawolf.
hostile bro
I’d love to hear the story/inspiration behind “Her Song” or see your official annotations!
Period. ❤
I was referring to my past drug use (not cool!); snorting pills/cocaine. Poltergeists are ghosts, ghosts are white, same color as the pills/coke.

wasn’t one of your lyrics from idk what song, “done every drug cept for coke”? jw
Sup Kells,
I just wanna say thank you for fucking pouring your heart out to our EST family through your lyrics, which literally save lives. you really are an inspiration!
Your talent is undeniable, no one can ever take that away from you Kells!
Just know that I will truly ride until the wheels fall off, coz real EST muthfuckas don’t break up, real family grows old! Your existence gives me hope for real.Love. lace up!
One of the realest rappers out there
Man Kells is one of the best there is right now and it fucking hate how under-rated he is, no one has lyrics as real as his. its all molly, cars, girls,money etc in rap now and its stupid as fuck. one day Kells will be appreciated like the fans appreciate him. but till then, LACE THE FUCK UP
Yo kells,
I was in the process of enlisting in the Army, my lifelong dream. It turned out I’m red/green colorblind (never knew) and that disqualified me from any job I wanted to do. I listened to some of your music and it inspired me; the message that I could do anything I truly desired really moved me. I started focusing my efforts on becoming a hip hop producer (I always made beats for fun), and just sold my third beat today. Just wanted to say thanks a million, and keep doin what you do.
I thought nostrils look like poltergeist was in reference to being dope sick and your nose running looking like a poltergeist like in the song : lead you on/merry go round talking about heroin addiction
Its an ugly thing when you don’t know anything about your girl other then the fact that she’s pretty

in this case, i wouldnt refer to her as a “girlfriend” but rather as a “fuckfriend”
Please come to Egypt!!! you’ll make my life! Kells you are my inspiration, the reason why I smile :)
I’m acknowledging that i know i sound like a diva when i say “i want the diamonds and gold” but when your broke, those type of material things are what make you feel like you’ve made it.

i was always considered to be the dunce amongst a class of genius’s. but oh, how wrong they were.

I love this because it’s relatable to anyone who has felt like less to everyone else around them. He never fails to relate to his fans and remind them that, although at some point he thought he was, we’re not alone.
You are truly amazing! dont ever forget that
Ahh /.\ This Is Me At The Moment .. Hopefully I’ll make It Big just Like You Did . So Many People say I’ll be Nothing In Life & If i Get A Chance To Prove Them Wrong I Would Take That Chance . So Many People Don’t Believe That i Will Truely Be Something . So I Just Keep Dreaming That i Do & Hopefully My Dream Will Come true Just To Show Everyone That I Am Gonna Be Something In Life♥ . MGK You’re My Inspiration
LACE THE FUCK UP !
