“shiver” is, like the other tracks of the EP, produced by John Mello. However, this one is noticeably also co-produced by Hector Vaé with whom Peep had already worked on several tracks. Moreover, it is the only song from Vertigo to not have a featured music video, probably explaining why it is less popular then the three other tracks.
First released on Peep’s SoundCloud, this music was rediscovered by his fans on the EP’s 4th anniversary, bringing it back on all streaming platforms.
Shiver
LIL PEEP Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I can't find shit (ay)
So, I'm squeezin' the trigger
I let my mind
Split up into bits of pieces for dinner
You eatin' brains, bitch
I know she cum when she shiver
Say they hate me
I don't give a fuck about who
Ay, I pull up in a coupe
Lookin' like soup
Real hot, jaw drop like the roof
I remember livin' life like you
Smokin' on boof
Lil' broke boy with a gold tooth
I could never live my life like you
Young, brand new
Lil Peep came through with the juice
Lookin' for a reason to live
I can't find shit (ay)
So, I'm squeezin' the trigger
I let my mind
Split up into bits of pieces for dinner
You eatin' brains, bitch
I know she cum when she shiver
Don't give a fuck about you
Say they hate me
I don't give a fuck about who
Ay, I pull up in a coupe
Lookin' like soup
Real hot, jaw drop like the roof
I remember livin' life like you
Smokin' on boof
Lil' broke boy with a gold tooth
I could never live my life like you
Young, brand new
Lil Peep came through with the juice
The lyrics of "Shiver" by LIL PEEP depict a sense of despair and nihilism, reflecting on the artist's struggle to find a reason to live. He expresses his emotional turmoil and darkness through the imagery of squeezing the trigger, suggesting both the contemplation of suicide and a metaphorical self-destruction of his mind. The lines "I let my mind / Split up into bits of pieces for dinner" symbolize his mental fragmentation and the feeling of being consumed by his own thoughts. He further emphasizes this by stating "You eatin' brains, bitch," implying that others feed off his pain for their own gratification.
The phrase "I know she cum when she shiver" adds a sexual connotation to the song. It could be interpreted as a metaphor for a partner finding pleasure in his suffering or experiencing orgasmic release when feeling intense emotions like shivering due to being overwhelmed by the weight of existence.
The song speaks to Lil Peep's disregard for opinions and criticisms from others, mentioning that he doesn't care about those who hate him. This lack of concern is evident in the repeated line "I don't give a fuck about who." He showcases his self-confidence and uniqueness, contrasting himself against those who live more conventional lives, represented by lines like "I remember livin' life like you" and "I could never live my life like you."
Overall, "Shiver" captures Lil Peep's inner struggles, feelings of isolation, and a general nonchalance towards society's expectations. It showcases his emotional vulnerability and unique perspective on life and relationships.
