Stereo
Machine Gun Kelly Lyrics

So turn me on
Activate me

You set me free
You release me from my inactive state

Just look inside your speakers
Visualize me within the sound system

And there you'll see me
Identify my presence within the music

Uh, there I go
Here I am

2 clicks north of the bronx
In a specific location in the city

Whoever thought she would found love in a stereo
No one could have imagined that she would fall in love with me through music

2 headphones and a box
The tools used to listen to me

She gets me up
She energizes me

Every morning on the walk to school
She listens to me on her way to school every day

She ain't worried bout these other little kids
She is not concerned about what other kids think

Cuz she told me
Because she confided in me

Everdyday they sayin something new
Every day they are speaking ill of her

And you always got the illest kicks
You have the best shoes in town

Boom Boom tat
The sound she hears when she listens to me

And she takes me out
She plays me in public for everyone to hear

Just so the block can see
Just to attract attention from the neighborhood

Told me she wanted the world to know
She expressed her desire for widespread recognition of us

So she makes me loud
She turns up the volume on me

Now the whole block wants me
The whole neighborhood wants to listen to me

But I'm all hers
I belong only to her

And she's all mine
She belongs only to me

And even though her parents don't like me inside
Her family disapproves of her listening to me

Whenever her daddy comes around
Whenever her father is near

We just hide
We conceal ourselves

Cuz she doesn't wanna sleep without me that's why
Because she cannot bear to be without me

Yeah, and she loves my sound
She adores my music

It's why I'm always around
It's why I always occupy her thoughts

One of the most popular girls
She is very well-liked

In the class
Among her peers

Could... attract the crowd
She has a magnetic personality

Yeah and she got me down
She knows my music well

Touches the right place when I'm fizzling out
She listens to me when I feel I am losing energy

And all of her friends love me
Her friends also appreciate my music

Cuz at all of the parties
Because my music is played at all of the parties

I make em bounce b-bounce
I cause them to dance

Uh, if I play the right song
When I play an appropriate track

She might take it off
She might begin to undress

Meaning her clothes
Her apparel

You know I love it when she keeps the lights on
I prefer when she has the lights switched on

Play the music soft
Keep the music volume low

Yeah so that's what I do
I lower the volume as per her request

Anything for my boo
I would do anything for her

But when I hear the knock on the door
When I hear someone at the door

I Shhh-shut up
I become quiet

Cuz I know my cue
I am aware of what I must do

But when they gone
When they leave

I'm back at it
I resume playing music

She loves this song
She adores this particular track

So I blast it
I turn up the volume

Dad gets home
Her father returns home

I hide in the cabinet
I conceal myself in a cupboard

Flip my switch
Resume playing music

Like gymnastics
Effortlessly

Uh and Imma always be there for you
I will always be there for her

You just gotta find my plug
You just need to connect me to the correct device

I'll be right here waiting for you in the middle of these speakers
I will be waiting for her within the music

If you ever wanna find my love
If she wants to experience my music again

Uh, and she gets older
As she grows up

But I stay the same
I am constant, my music remains unchanged

And as she grows up
As she ages

Her opinions change
Her viewpoint evolves

Now she's off at college
She is currently attending university

W- are the ones like me
People similar to me

I just hope that one day she'll come back
I hope she will return

To hear another song from me
To listen to my music once again

But till then
In the meantime

I just sit in her room and collect dust
I remain in her room, accumulating dust

Thinkin about us
Reflecting on our past experiences

Waitin for the day she'll push my buttons
Anticipating the moment she will use me again

And I feel her touch
When she interacts with me

And get that rush
I experience a feeling of excitement

But I'm not what she needs
I am not what she requires to move forward in life

So I power down
I become inactive

Then right at that moment
At that exact time

I was found
I am discovered

Hello, her little sister walked in
Her younger sister entered the room

Knew it was love at first sight
Instantly attracted to me

Caught a little twinkle in her eye when I made a sound
She responded positively when she heard me playing

She snuck back in the same night
She returned under the cover of darkness

And even though she knows that she wasn't allowed
Despite being aware that she should not use me

I know all she wanna do is be near me
She just wants to be next to me

One thing is that I felt the same
I feel a similar attraction towards her

Wanna tell her but she can't hear me
I am unable to communicate my feelings to her

So I said
Therefore, I repeat
