“I flew to my dad’s apartment to clear all his stuff out. I had this really weird interaction with this neighbor who told me all these things I didn’t want to hear and that f—ed me up even more because I couldn’t get closure on it,” MGK recalled.

“I wouldn’t leave my room and I started getting really, really, really dark,” he continued. “Megan went to Bulgaria to shoot a movie and I started getting this really wild paranoia. Like, I kept getting paranoid that someone was gonna come and kill me.”

“I would always sleep with this shotgun next to my bed. One of the days I just f—ing snapped. I called Megan. I was like, ‘You aren’t here for me.’ I’m in my room and I’m, like, freaking out on her,” he said. “I put the shotgun in my mouth. And I’m yelling on the phone and like the barrel’s in my mouth. And I go to cock the shotgun and the bullet, as it comes back up, the shell just gets jammed.”

The musician added that Megan was “like dead silent,” at which point he realized he needed help. Both Megan and his daughter Cassie came to him to express their concerns, telling him, “I want to be able to see in your eyes, I don’t want to be like talking to you through a veil anymore. I want to see you as my father, I want to see you as my husband-to-be.’”

“And I was like, ‘I need to kick the drugs, for real this time,” he added. MGK didn’t offer any additional details about his drug use in the story.

He also described visiting his father in the hospital before his death. “I had this conversation with him even though he was clearly just checking out. But I turned around and I was like, ‘Dad, I love you so much and I’m so sorry for how we lived this life together. We’ll do it better on the next one,’” he said. “He thought he was in heaven, he thought I was an angel.”

MGK also made several comments about his relationship with Megan in the documentary, comparing her to “the sun” as some he “revolved around and gives me life and helps me grow.”

He also credited her for inspiring so much of his music, explaining: “I know I’ve known her in so many other lifetimes. That’s what makes my pen move so much.”
