Boyband Lyrics

[Intro: RZA & Kevin Abstract]
I think the thing that y'all got that's special that people don't have
Is the ability, I guess, when you guys coined the—
The "boy band" of it all? (Yeah)
That element there, nobody got that


[Verse: Kevin Abstract]
We always thought outside of the lines
Filmin' videos outside, sunrise
DIY made the crew supersize

Buncha gold records, what a wonderful surprise, uh-oh
My teachers said I wouldn't be shit, yeah
My brother said I shouldn't be here
Uh, we did an album in a week, yeah
Uh, and JOBA mixеd it by the weekend (Yeah)

No street shit, bordеrline genius (Woo)
Borderline freakish, dye my hair greenish
Y'all so geekish
In the group where we just keep it (Uh, uh)
Keepin' speakers bleedin' (Yeah, yeah, uh-uh, uh-uh)
Yo, summertime needs this (Uh-oh)
Uh, I said, "Summertime needs this" (Uh-uh, uh, uh)
Yeah, girl, summertime needs this (Uh-oh)
Summertime, yo

[Chorus: Kevin Abstract, Kevin Abstract & bearface]
My dear friend, what a wonderful surprise
I'm ready to go, I can feel it inside
Think I know I need to go
So I can reach new highs

My dear friend, what a wonderful surprise (Woo)
I'm ready to go, I can feel it inside
Think I know I need to go
So I can reach new highs

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

About

This song bio is unreviewed
Genius Annotation

This song is about Kevin reminiscing about all the achievements that the band has accomplished and the way they did it by him stating things such as their DIY videos and their certified gold records. Later in the track’s chorus, Kevin states that it’s been a good ride going along and making music as BROCKHAMPTON but he knows that everyone is ready to leave and make the best music they can on their own and so he also states that he too is ready for a new chapter in his life.
