Saul Williams Lyrics
"Notice of Eviction"

Something is dying tonight
There will be no more breath and no more light
I've burned every candle and extinguished every fear
And I've waited for your time to pass
To bring in my new year

Something is dying tonight
There will be no more struggle
No more fight
And I've known that I'd have to live through suffering and youth
But I'm the landlord of my dreams now and
My tenant's rent is due

Something is dying
Something is dying inside of me
In spite of me
Something is dying tonight
My old patterns off to Saturn taking flight
And the astronaut within me
Has no air supply at all so
He's plunging into the deep sea
With no parachute to fall

Something is dying tonight
I can't eat and I can't sleep
So I just write cause
I wanted you to lean on
To distract me from my feet
Oh my karma will cure me
Out of bounds and out of reach

Something is dying
Something is dying inside of me
In spite of me
Something is dying
Something is dying inside of me
In spite of me

Author of winds of change, phantom of the opera
Tenor of the octet frame spews volcanic lava
Silent heart of the sun not just the world of interest
Sun retires calls it a day and sleeps a hundred winters
Darkness echoes thunder cries and wagers war of laughter
Dolphins confuse sea and sky and now with the hereafter
Monkeys climb to the tops of trees and call out to the children
Little girl awakes from dream as Elvis leave the building
Elvis leaves the building
Elvis leaves the building
Elvis leaves the building
Elvis leaves the building
Down poor from the darkest cloud and accumulate attention
Flasher of the third leads him to the fourth dimension
Shotgun rings across a plain down goes another line
Harlem church cries sing refrain; a margin of design
