The Ending
BROCKHAMPTON Lyrics

Let me be the one that you cling to
Allow me to be the person you depend on and hold onto in times of need

Let me be the one that you call on
Let me be the person you reach out to for support or assistance

Let me be the one (let me be the one) that you cling to
Grant me the privilege of being the individual you rely on and hold close

Let me be the one that you call on
Permit me to be the individual you seek help or guidance from

(You can mute it for me)
You have the option to silence the background noise or distractions for my sake

Back when I had a fro still
In the past, when I still had an afro hairstyle

First moved to L.A. My daddy still paid my phone bill
When I initially relocated to Los Angeles, my father was still covering my phone expenses

I was sneaking niggas out in the early morning
I used to discreetly allow people to leave my place early in the morning

After sucking good dick on a Sunday morning
After engaging in oral sex on a Sunday morning

Walking through the living room, I see Jabari yawning
As I walk through the living room, I observe Jabari being tired and yawning

I'm thinking, 'Man, one day we all gon' be some superstars'
I'm contemplating the future, believing that one day all of us will achieve great fame and success

And this is way back before I had a credit card
This happened long ago when I didn't possess a credit card

And this is way back when I ain't have a debit card
And this occurred in the past when I didn't have a debit card either

And this is way back when we all still prayed to God
And this took place in a time when all of us still had faith and prayed to God

When Clancy believed in me, when fans wasn't singing songs
During a period when Clancy, a figure of importance, had faith in my potential, and the fans hadn't started singing my songs yet

When Kelly would talk to me, when I ain't had no friends at all
When Kelly, someone who cared, would engage in conversation with me during a time when I lacked any true friends

Besides them niggas that I lived with
Except for the individuals with whom I resided

This the most corrupted vision
This represents the most distorted and tainted perception

I turned my friendship into a business, into a empire
I transformed my companionship into a commercial endeavor, building an influential and powerful entity

Half a million that I wired to my mama, she retired
I sent five hundred thousand dollars to my mother via electronic transfer, enabling her retirement

Calling me, 'I'm getting tired of the drama'
My mother contacts me, expressing exhaustion from the conflicts and troubles

Getting tired of letting culture
Becoming weary of allowing societal norms and expectations

Try to tell me how to live my life (let me be the one)
Attempting to dictate and control my lifestyle against my desires (allow me to be the person)

How to live my life (that you cling to)
Imposing their ideas on how I should lead my life (that you depend on)

How to live my life
Instructing me on how I should navigate my own existence

This the ending we all envisioned, right? (Let me be the one)
Is this the conclusion we all imagined and desired? (Allow me to be the person)

This is me, Abstract gone for the night, for the night (that you call on)
This is who I am, Abstract, absent for the night, unavailable to be reached (that you reach out to)

How you feel? (Let me be the one)
How are you feeling? (Allow me to be the person)

(Let me be the one)
(Allow me to be the person)

(That you cling to)
(That you depend on)

(Let me be the one that you call on)
(Allow me to be the person you seek)
