Forbidden resource in API group at the cluster scope

I am unable to identify what the exact issue with the permissions with my setup as shown below. I've looked into all the similar QAs but still unable to solve the issue. The aim is to deploy Prometheus and let it scrape /metrics endpoints that my other applications in the cluster expose fine.

Failed to watch *v1.Endpoints: failed to list *v1.Endpoints: endpoints is forbidden: User \"system:serviceaccount:default:default\" cannot list resource \"endpoints\" in API group \"\" at the cluster scope"
Failed to watch *v1.Pod: failed to list *v1.Pod: pods is forbidden: User \"system:serviceaccount:default:default\" cannot list resource \"pods\" in API group \"\" at the cluster scope"
Failed to watch *v1.Service: failed to list *v1.Service: services is forbidden: User \"system:serviceaccount:default:default\" cannot list resource \"services\" in API group \"\" at the cluster scope"
...
...

The command below returns no to all services, nodes, pods etc.

kubectl auth can-i get services --as=system:serviceaccount:default:default -n default
