MANGEKYOU SHARINGAN

Lucas A.R.T's song 'MANGEKYOU SHARINGAN' delves into the themes of deception, ambition, and the superficial nature of fame. The artist uses the metaphor of the 'Mangekyou Sharingan,' a powerful and rare ability from the popular anime 'Naruto,' to illustrate how some people will go to great lengths, even betraying those they love, to achieve fame and recognition. This metaphor is particularly poignant as the Mangekyou Sharingan is known for its immense power but also for the heavy toll it takes on its user, often leading to tragic consequences.

In the lyrics, Lucas A.R.T addresses a person who only became interested in him after he gained popularity and followers. He recognizes that this person's intentions are not genuine, driven by a desire for 'hype' rather than true affection or friendship. The artist's awareness of this superficiality is evident in lines like 'Eu não sou otário, Mano eu já sabia,' which translates to 'I'm not a fool, man, I already knew.' This highlights his understanding of the fickle nature of fame and the people it attracts.

The repetition of the phrase 'Mangekyou Sharingan, Faz de tudo por fama, Até ferir quem se ama' reinforces the idea that the pursuit of fame can lead to harmful actions, even against loved ones. Lucas A.R.T's use of anime references not only appeals to fans of the genre but also serves as a powerful allegory for the darker side of ambition and the sacrifices people are willing to make for success. The song is a cautionary tale about the cost of fame and the importance of staying true to oneself amidst the allure of superficial recognition.
