The 74-year-old rocker wrote the songs, which features Skepta, in April.
Jagger says the tracks are a response to the "confusion and frustration with the times we live in" and the result of anxiety, "unknowability" of the changing political situation, reported Rolling Stone magazine.
"It's always refreshing to get creative in a different fashion and I feel a slight throwback to a time when you could be a bit more free and easy by recording on the hoof and putting it out there immediately," he says.
Jagger says he is delighted to have Skepta on "England Lost", because the star is a very exciting new artist.
"Right from the off when I started writing 'England Lost', I imagined having a British rapper on the track... Skepta stepped in at a moment's notice and I just loved what he did."
"England Lost" talks about the story of a disappointing soccer match.
Meanwhile, "Gotta Get a Grip" is about taking charge of the future.
