xi. fate: the boy [infinity pool] - becausethe.com lyrics
the ultimate fate of the boy is not known for certain, we can only -ssume. the way the script ends make it seem as though the boy is shot by ‘dude 1′ when he enters back into the house
[quote: “because the internet” screenplay]
dude 1 turns to the boy and sho
…(breath)…..(breath)………….(breath)..
silence
[end quote]
but what actually happened? it’s hard to tell. the boy loves to imagine different things (see below), so it could just be that, but that seems highly unlikely.
after accepting that he is going to die, the boy asks ‘dude 2′ if he can be drowned. he says that he has heard that there is a “wave of euphoria when you drown.” he follows up with, “supposed to be good.” the boy then looks out at the infinity pool and see’s his lifeless body floating in the water. at that point, it doesn’t say that he imagined it or thought of it, but he actually turned and saw his dead body in the pool. weird, or maybe i’m wrong. you may remember this from the “yaphet kotto” album teaser released a while ago. maybe the track was supposed to be on the album?
savemonkey proposes that maybe the whole story of the boy is fake. at the beginning of the script, we’re told that the boy loves to troll people on the internet. donald is playing the boy, and we are receiving everything from the album and the script through the internet. maybe it’s all a troll? but that’s outside of this “world” (or maybe we are a part of the world too, oooooh). looking inside the “world” maybe the boy is just simply trolling everyone with his blog, or with his imagination

man made the web, you don’t need a name

in the script, all we get is the boy or [edit]. they ain’t his name

every thought i had, put it in a box
[end quote]
the boy always shares his thoughts, like when he is thinking about drowning (as discussed above) and he turns and sees his body floating in the infinity pool. maybe everything that’s happening are just his thoughts, maybe the ending didn’t actually happen and was just another thought he had
[quote: “life: the biggest troll (andrew auernheimer)”]
trolling, trolling, trolling these n-ggas
[end quote]
… is he? at the end of the script, when the credits roll, donald is sitting in a shop on his phone. everything is white, so maybe it’s some kind of after-life, or maybe everything before this moment was an epic troll and he has just been chilling here the whole time …
the tracklist found on the physical copy of the album reads “life: the biggest troll [andrew auernheimer] feat. donald glover”
[quote: “life: the biggest troll (andrew auernheimer)”]
i’m gone – now i’m back
[end quote]
is there a switch between donald glover and childish gambino on the track?
[quote: “life: the biggest troll (andrew auernheimer)”]
waking up in these places i don’t remember
texts from people i never met, doors left open
(who are you? don’t do it. who are you?)
i don’t know who i am anymore
[end quote]
is donald doing is one-two thing and then suddenly switching into gambino, who then does his one-two thing and then switching back to donald, who is then left wondering what the h-ll just happened? maybe it’s the other way around. is it coming to a point where he doesn’t know if he is donald or gambino?
[quote: “life: the biggest troll (andrew auernheimer)”]
you’re here now. you have to help me
you have to help me
i need you. you have to help me
you have to help me
you have to help me
please help me
please help me
please
please help me
[end quote]
is this the boy asking for help? if he was shot maybe someone has arrived who can help him? maybe it’s just donald/gambino asking someone for help
