If only I could, but the blind have left me neuralized Detroit Leprechaun – Man of a Moon
Men in Black is a movie trilogy. In the third one, Agent K says these wise words of wisdom: “don’t ask questions you don’t want to know the answer to.”
Found in MIB is a device called a neuralyzer, which wipes recent memory. I cannot remember this lesson due to this. How did the blind create this memory loss? Due to their faults, wonders are created.
Is a greater devotion than roaring in the light Detroit Leprechaun – Man of a Moon
A lot of people go to loud concerts where everything is super energetic, often considering themselves to be huge fans.
But I seek to make something for people to listen to late at night when they are scared of the world. Night is when people’s emotions are strongest, and when people feel alone. This dedication in a time of need is heavier than simply rocking out to something in the middle of the day.
Not many people of this planet understand Detroit Leprechaun – Man of a Moon
Moral of the story: people try to differ from what they consider to be society, but if the masses are doing it, then they ARE society without even realizing it.
Not many people would understand this division between the black sheep and what are perceived to be the deep-thinkers of today. All of the things mentioned in the previous 3 lines are what people think are deep, but I completely disagree with.
Also an homage to Man on the Moon
Society today seems to believe that people who do not cry are not real people. This is cheesy. But not as cheesy as the usage of Cheetos in this line, which is a usage of irony.
Society:
Once again flipping the popular belief. Black sheep, a recurring theme, are more important than the lions, people in the spotlight.
Society says:
I disagree with this completely. What people do can come back to haunt them, affecting them much greater than mere yearnings to do things aging will not allow.

Alberto “Alpo” Martinez was a notorious Harlem drug dealer who had his hands in Washington D.C., where he was also shot, though not killed. The next line mentions Wayne Perry, who has his enforcer.
Alpo testified against Perry, and is currently serving a life sentence for 14 homicides. Perry is in ADX Florence, a supermax facility in Colorado.
After Alpo’s rise to power, DC became a much more dangerous place. You could not go there safely.
