Recently, Lil Peep’s estate finally ensured that his fan-favorite mixtape Hellboy — a project some declare to be his best — would be making the transition to streaming services. Now, days removed from its re-release, Peep’s team has shared an updated take on the original “Hellboy” music video. Released in September of 2016, the Midnight Cinema-directed OG “Hellboy” was far darker in tone, feature several glimpses of disorienting shots and scenes. In this new revision, released earlier this afternoon, most of the extraneous trapping has been scrubbed away entirely.
Now, Peep remains the centerpiece of the clip, his visage far less shadowy and thus — a more innocent figure than originally depicted. Though the clip’s essence has largely remained the same, it feels largely designed to spend more time with the late artist, removing the stylized elements in favor of a more intimate experience. Though some purists may prefer the vibe of the original, made and directed as Peep intended, it’s still a welcome addition to his catalog.

[Intro: Hellboy Animated: Blood and Iron Sample]
Can this be him?
The one I have waited centuries to see?
How strange
So far from his path that I barely see the promise of glory
Can this be him, this Hellboy?
[Chorus]
You don’t even know what I’ve been through (What I’ve been through)
You don’t gotta like me, ya bitch do (Ya bitch do)
Blowin’ up my phone like, “I miss you” (Like I miss you)
You know I love you by the way that I kiss you
You don’t even know what I’ve been through (What I’ve been through)
You don’t gotta like me, ya bitch do (Ya bitch do)
Blowin’ up my phone like, “I miss you” (Like I miss you)
You know I love you by the way that I kiss you
[Verse]
Leave me to bleed, I know I got you on your knees
But something keeps on tellin’ me
It keeps on tellin’ me
“Peep, leave it alone, I’m good on my own”
Mama miss me at home, but I’m good on my own
Baby, I’m cold, back on the road
Show after show, fuckin’ ho after ho
I swear it gets so lonely sometimes
Please, just hold me one time
Fuck these hoes and fuck life
I’ve been waitin’ here all damn night
Not one call or text from you (Yeah, ayy)
You’re the same as my ex, fuck you (Damn, ayy)
Bitch
[Chorus]
You don’t even know what I’ve been through (What I’ve been through)
You don’t gotta like me, ya bitch do (Ya bitch do)
Blowin’ up my phone like, “I miss you” (Like I miss you)
You know I love you by the way that I kiss you
You don’t even know what I’ve been through (What I’ve been through)
You don’t gotta like me, ya bitch do (Ya bitch do)
Blowin’ up my phone like, “I miss you” (Like I miss you)
You know I love you by the way that I kiss you
