Machine Gun Kelly just unearthed a gem from his Tickets To My Downfall vault with “no cell phones in rehab,” dropping the full track and video yesterday, October 21, 2025.
What started as a leaked demo back in January 2023—raw and unfinished, missing some polish—now hits like a gut-punch confessional, produced by longtime collaborator Travis Barker. It’s got that signature mgk blend of pop-punk fury and hip-hop honesty, channeling the chaos of addiction, online trolls, and that desperate grab for one more night before the reset.
The chorus hooks you right away, “On the bright side, we all die one day, so I’m gettin’ fucked up tonight / Wanna toast to the bad times, because the good ones are less likely.” Then verse one dives into the mess—”Okay, I got possessed and created a mess / Okay, I got regrets that I’m tryna forget”—painting nights of uppers, nosebleeds, and habits you can’t shake. By the bridge, it’s all stained red outfits and self-inflicted pain, a nod to turning hurt outward before it swallows you. Fans are calling it the perfect Halloween drop, with the video’s eerie vibes and a cheeky doll sidekick stealing scenes.
This feels like mgk reflecting on his own rock bottom, especially after those early leaks sparked endless Reddit threads debating if it was bound for the album. Now official, it’s climbing streams fast, and X is full of clips from the Kia Forum show where he teased it live. If you’re chasing that cathartic release, this one’s your anthem—proof Colson Baker’s still got stories that cut deep.
Dive into the NO CELL PHONES IN REHAB lyrics below and unpack its chaotic heart. Don’t miss other mgk tracks for more of his vault magic.
