Like most of PART ONE’s mixtape songs, this one also has dark vibes which fit the lyrics by talking about suicidal thoughts, depression and Peep hiding his emotions.
Five Degrees
Lil Peep Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I just wanna die in peace tonight
You can see it in my face, so I wear my hood
Feelin' like it's five degrees tonight
Everybody cold where I come from
Cut your mans down, you was lookin' for a come up
Next summer, I'll be on a island, with your bitch and a bottle
And a pocket full of numbers
Don't stutter, slang from the gutter
Got bang for ya butter
Got my name from my mother
No other, shinin' thru' the shutter
Say she over me
Whatever, 'cause she underneath my covers
Bet you wish you had my flow
I know I'm dope, I could ask your ho
Bet you wish you got me mad
You don't, you won't, not never
Stop blowin' up my phone
Yo, run that shit back for me
Worry about yourself, baby, I'll be good
I just wanna die in peace tonight
You can see it in my face, so I wear my hood
Feelin' like it's five degrees tonight
Everybody cold where I come from
Cut your mans down, you was lookin' for a come up
Next summer, I'll be on a island, with your bitch and a bottle
And a pocket full of numbers

LIL PEEP acknowledges that everyone around him is cold, and some people are willing to do anything to come up. He seems to suggest that it's a dog-eat-dog world where only the strongest survive.
In the second verse, LIL PEEP talks about his upbringing and how he emerged from the streets. He emphasizes his authenticity by saying that he got his name from his mother.

The verse concludes with him telling a girl who is supposedly obsessed with him to stop blowing up his phone.

I'm unique and shining through despite being held back
Say she over me
She claims to be over me
Whatever, 'cause she underneath my covers
I still have control over her sexually
Bet you wish you had my flow
You wish you could rap like me
I know I'm dope, I could ask your ho
I'm confident in my talent and could seduce your girlfriend
Bet you wish you got me mad
You want to see me angry or upset

You won't be able to make me angry
Stop blowin' up my phone
Stop calling me repeatedly
Yo, run that shit back for me
Can you play the song again for me?

Used to snort lines to this. Was in an especially bad time in my life. Lots of drugs and mentally I hated myself and who I was. It’s weird because looking back I miss that shit. You really fall in love with self destruction and depression.
@feanvy7038
Dude... I thought I am the only one who felt like this
@lilwondrboy
This is easy to relate to for me </3
@sydneystepp7297
