Machine Gun Kelly released his fifth album, Tickets to My Downfall, in 2020; it marked a complete departure from hip hop and entry into pop punk. It debuted at number one on the Billboard 200, the only rock album to do so that year, and contained the single "My Ex's Best Friend" (with blackbear), which reached number 20 on the Hot 100. He achieved similar commercial success with its follow up mainstream sellout (2022).
Machine Gun Kelly had his first starring role in the romantic drama Beyond the Lights (2014), and since appeared in the techno-thriller Nerve (2016), the horror Bird Box (2018), the comedy Big Time Adolescence and portrayed Tommy Lee in the biopic The Dirt (both 2019).

Machine Gun Kelly Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
'Cause it don't rain but tonight it's pourin' (tonight it's pourin')
Uh, you like it more when I ignore it (you like it, yeah)
And since I left, LA got boring (since I've been gone)
Ayy, I'm back on my bullshit
You're a Libra, I'm a Taurus
Heard you hooked back up with your ex
You're way too hot to be actin' like that
Actin' like that
Actin' like that
You're way too hot to be actin' like that
Actin' like that
Actin' like that
I don't wanna talk right now
You're asleep outside my house
You're way too hot to be actin' like that
Actin' like that
Actin' like that
(I love this bit)
I heard it today, you got on a plane to another state
I think I'm okay, never gonna change my mind
Never gonna change my mind
And I don't think today is the last time
That the bright lights hit the dark side
I can see that look in your eyes
I can see that look in your eyes, yeah
Now I can't sleep, I'm all alone
And what we reaped is what we've sown
So can we meet somewhere in the middle?
(Yeah)
You're way too hot to be actin' like that
Actin' like that
Actin' like that
You're way too hot to be actin' like that
Actin' like that
Actin' like that
I don't wanna talk right now (right now)
You're asleep outside my house (you're asleep outside my house)
You're way too hot to be actin' like that
Actin' like that
Actin' like that
I'm goin' out my head
I fell in love again
And I know that you'll regret me in the morning
When you are gone again
(Yeah)
You're way too hot to be actin' like that
Actin' like that
Actin' like that
You're way too hot to be actin' like that
Actin' like that
Actin' like that
I don't wanna talk right now (I don't want to talk right now)
You're asleep outside my house (you're asleep outside my house)
You're way too hot to be actin' like that
Actin' like that
Actin' like that
In "Like That" by Machine Gun Kelly, the lyrics convey a narrative of a tumultuous relationship between two individuals. The opening lines, "Who's that knocking at four in the morning? / 'Cause it don't rain but tonight it's pourin'," suggest a sudden and unexpected visit during a difficult time. The lyrics imply that something significant has brought them together at this late hour, potentially indicating a serious issue or a longing for connection.
The next few lines, "Uh, you like it more when I ignore it / And since I left, LA got boring," hint at a dynamic where one person thrives on attention and drama, while the other has grown disinterested or disappointed. It seems that since the singer has departed from Los Angeles, their former partner's life has become mundane or less exciting. This contrast highlights the complexity of their relationship and the personal growth the singer has experienced.
The chorus, "You're way too hot to be actin' like that," suggests that the person they are addressing possesses physical attractiveness, but their behavior is unbecoming or problematic. The repetition emphasizes the frustration felt by the singer towards their partner's actions. This dynamic is further elaborated in the line, "Ayy, I'm back on my bullshit," which indicates that the singer has returned to their previous patterns of behavior, perhaps in response to the partner's conduct.
The lyrics also express a sense of longing and uncertainty. The line, "Now I can't sleep, I'm all alone / And what we reaped is what we've sown," conveys the singer's inner struggle and the consequences of their actions. They realize the impact of their relationship's ups and downs and hope to find a compromise or resolution, as suggested by the line, "So can we meet somewhere in the middle?"
Overall, "Like That" delves into the complexities and conflicts that arise in relationships. It explores themes of disconnection, attraction, insecurity, and the desire for resolution. Through vivid imagery and emotive language, the song effectively portrays the ups and downs of an intense and complicated bond.
