I’m going to just start with talking about someone that I just love. I think this young man was so great and had such a beautiful heart and soul. Lil Peep, born Gustav Elijah Åhr, was born in 1996 and sadly past away in 2017. I’m not going to go into all the many things and thoughts I have for this artist, since I am doing this all to discuss the songs and the lyrics. There are many choices I had to go through, but I am going to choose one song that I think is absolutely beautiful. (I’m pretty positive that I’ll be writing about a lot more of his songs down the road!) Let’s begin with, “Haunt You”
My time is here,
and I’m making it clear;
Oh, I love you my dear,
but I’m going,
I’m gone.
I might come back,
when the Benz all black.
Ten racks on my lap.
If I don’t relapse,
and I stay strong,
I could do anything I want to.
Bump Lil Peep,
When I die,
I’mma haunt you.
I could live forever if I want to,
I could stop time,
but I never wanna do that again.
Nothing worse than losing a friend,
and the feeling you get when everybody that you love ain’t around
I really gotta get away from this town
I’m just waiting for a wave and I’ll drown.
Satan letting me down.
I just wanna help you see,
you should run away from me
Baby I’m a drug,
and I don’t wanna hurt you,
no I’m not gonna hurt you girl,
not at all.
I ain’t gonna set you free,
all you’re gonna get from me:
little bit a love and a little virtue.
If I hurt you, I’ll end it all.Source: Musixmatch
I love it!! If you haven’t heard it yet, check it out!! Adding the music to the lyrics is something you should hear. It gives me goosebumps when I listen to it!
Anyways, this here, to me… is hearing his pain. But he’s selfless and he doesn’t want to hurt no one because if he does, he wouldn’t be able to live with that guilt.
What do you all get from this? Anyone else out there a Peep fan? I could seriously write a blog about just him! Lol. Anyone want more songs or more discussion about Lil Peep.. let me know and it will happen!!
