He claimed to be a WIZRD, so are we truly surprised that Future speaks almost entirely in riddles? In truth, it's part of his charm, and a key reason as to why he's often quoted in various memes across the internet. Yet amidst his cryptic diction lies essential truths, important for those seeking a deeper understanding of the man's character. After all, this is the same Future many have deemed to be the spokesperson for "Toxic Masculinity," a title he's retained even in the middle of a seemingly serious relationship.

All jokes aside, Future has been increasingly vocal on social media of late -- though many of his recent Tweets have been in response to a growing feud with Tekashi 6ix9ine. Under that lens, it's difficult not to paint any of his musings as being directly related to the Rainbow Wonder's second coming, though that's the beauty of his ambiguous messaging. Today, Future took a moment to reflect on the importance of honesty, as well as discerning the real from the fake. "I’m too infatuated with the truth to fall for a myth," he writes, signing off as PLUTO.

Given how deeply entrenched in child support legal battles Future has become, it's entirely possible he's speaking on the media's tendency to weave false narratives or fuel otherwise dormant fires. It's equally likely that he's shrugging off some of the more unflattering depictions of his character, remaining steadfast in his belief that he is not the man he appears to be in his music and larger persona. Or perhaps he's simply trying out some new bars. Interpret away.
