    Not to mention that whenever you listen to We Cry Together (Clean Version), you also need to open your windows and yell all of the redacted lyrics toward the street, so your neighbours can also have a better understanding of the song.

      It's because Anthony is bald and the sound waves flow against his scalp so elegantly thus making the music flow into his ears so much more smoothly and effectively meanwhile you have great hair and cannot truly listen to the music as impactfully since the sound waves are being mildy interfered by the golden locks you have

    I have traveled back in time from exactly one year in the future after completing all of these steps. My eyes have been opened. My brain enlightened. My soul transformed. I am not the only one however. Thousands in the next year will take what will become known as “The Pilgrimage of the Big Steppers.” Masses will flock to Kendrick’s shows all with one purpose, to transcend to the same plain of existence as Mr. Morale. Not a single person moves or shows any sign of emotion as Kendrick delivers the most holy bars in not only this world, but this universe. Some aren’t ready and it’s evident. They break down in tears as their mental is challenged and pushed to a breaking point. Some who do make it through the concert find their brains have dissolved into water following such an event. But those of us who were ready, who came prepared to take the journey, who completed this journey are now the most powerful beings the universe has ever seen, led by Duckworth, Kdot, and Kendrick, the trinity of Mr. Morale. Prepare yourselves. Be enlightened
