Saul Williams
"No One Ever Does"

No one ever does
Memories are like promises that are seldom kept
Hence, why Jesus wept
Every day we are torn away from the ones we love
There's no God above
Only if you would spend your gift to uphold the truth of just me and you
And we represent all the time we've spent getting to this day
There's no other way
Aren't we who we claim to be the descendents of?
Whom we place above, we must place within and slowly begin to love
No one ever does
Suddenly, who I thought was me was not me at all
And I feel so small, sitting way beneath who I want to be
I don't want to be who I've grown to be
Only if I might somehow riff on the way before let it be some more
Lift me from this floor if I can't walk I'll crawl to love
No one ever does
