About This Track

A portrait of someone spiralling, caught between self-awareness and self-destruction. The song names its own crisis in the title, a psychiatric hold code, and builds its argument around the plea that the narrator is dangerous to himself and others. The lyrics cycle through confession and accusation, romanticised trauma and jealousy, each verse pulling tighter around the same knot of damage and refusal to be fixed. What gives the track its weight is the tension between the hook's repetition and the specificity of the verses. The chorus collapses into a chant, almost numbed by its own repetition, whilst the middle section fractures into a rapid-fire confession that names narcissism, heartlessness, and jealousy without flinching. It's a song that understands its own pathology and performs it anyway, which is a harder thing to do than simple catharsis.

"5150" is a track by mgk, from the album mainstream sellout, released 25th March 2022. The track is 2:55 long. It's filed under Alternative. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 1 article about mgk.

Lyrics

5150

Bruises don't heal overnight
I'm a few sips from pulling the trigger
Self-abusive, on the borderline
If having you'll be my grave digger
Leave, leave, leave me now
Please, please, save yourself
Leave, leave, leave me now
Before I hurt someone else

You're crazy (5150)
I won't go (5150)
You make me (5150)
I'm damaged (please don't fix me)

I romanticized
All the wrong things for the wrong reasons
Now I'm paralyzed
Traumatized so I had to get even
Plead, plead, plead me out
Please, please, save yourself
Leave, leave, leave me now
Before I hurt myself

You're crazy (5150)
I won't go (5150)
You make me (5150)
I'm damaged (please don't fix me)

It's time to confess, confess why you said this
Time to confess, confess that you're heartless
Uh, time to confess, confess why you said this
Okay, I confess, I confess, I was jealous
Time to confess, confess that you're heartless
Okay, I confess, I confess, I'm a narcissist

You're crazy (5150)
I won't go (5150)
You make me (5150)
I'm damaged (please don't fix me)

I got 52 cards
I drew the Queen of Hearts
You want me (5150)
You got me, 5150
