Tenure commonly refers to life tenure in a job and specifically to a senior academic's contractual right not to have his or her position terminated without just cause.
In the 19th century, university professors largely served at the pleasure of the board of trustees of the university. Sometimes, major donors could successfully remove professors or prohibit the hiring of certain individuals; nonetheless, a de facto tenure system existed. Usually professors were only fired for interfering with the religious principles of a college, and most boards were reluctant to discipline professors. The courts rarely intervened in dismissals.
In one debate of the Cornell Board of Trustees, in the 1870s, a businessman trustee argued against the prevailing system of de facto tenure, but lost the argument. Despite the power retained in the board, academic freedom prevailed. Another example is the 1894 case of Richard Ely, a University of Wisconsin–Madison professor who advocated labor strikes and labor law reform. Though the Wisconsin legislature and business interests pressed for his dismissal, the board of trustees of the university passed a resolution committing itself to academic freedom, and to retaining him (without tenure):
I hate these feelings that I get
I got sadness and madness mixed with shit
Never do ya try to see things my way
You just bring your attitude and fuck up my day
Well maybe it's time I ended the story
Your not the only one who can live in glory
(For real, your gonna see things my way)
(laughing & screaming in the background)
Don't cry for me
There's no one here
Demon's cant seize
This pain and fear
Well you say this is a fight for myself, right?
Well what happens when I come in and knock out your
light?
You don't see things quite so clearly
You've got your CC and your loss of hearing
Perceive this with something that isn't inner
I'm coming through your mind for beginners!
(For real, this is the way I play kid)
Don't cry for me
There's no one here
Angel's cant seize
This pain and fear
Don't cry for me
There's no one here
Demon's cant seize
This pain and fear
Mommy, please no, not again!
Not again! (6x)
I learned my lesson Mom
Not again! (6x)
Well I've stomped at my plate for so many years
Lifted in my victories from fights with peers
What does it take to get through to you?
That I'm not the one who abused you, who choosed you
From the demon in my blood but the one who losed you?
Don't cry for me
There's no one here
Demon's cant seize
This pain and fear
Don't cry for me
There's no one here
Angel's cant seize
This pain and fear
Don't cry for me
There's no one here
Demon's cant seize
This pain and fear
Demon don't make me feel bad
Demon feel my heart
Demon feel my pain
Demon carry through
Demon's all I gain
But I think I've opened my eyes to a new light
Demon flow my river, not so bad
Demon can't deny
Demon can't be force
Demon ride the black night
But demon's still the horse
But I think I've opened my eyes to a new light
Now I feel I can stand
Sunshine is frozen
This hot skull I feed
Just won't bleed
Into the next world
No boys and girls
NO PROBLEMS!
Knuckles scar me
Hey man, wheres the love at?
This black hole I dwell
In leads to hell
Into the next dimension
Died quicker, need repention
NO PROBLEMS!
Knuckles scar me
Skittles, pills, shit and piss
Talk about hatred
But what is this?
Skittles, pills, shit and piss
Talk about hatred
But what is this?
I love her, but she makes me concerned
I had feelings, that only she can earn
I love her
I love her
I love her, but where is she at
I so miss her, where is she at?
Where is she at?
Oh it tears me up inside
To know that she decided
I'm not a part of her
I'm not a part of her
Anymore...
I love her, but she makes me concerned

Connections...connections...connections
All that time spent
Reflections...reflections...reflections
Where has that love went?
Possession! Possession! Possession!
Oh it tears me up inside
To know that she decided
I'm not a part
I'm not a part of her
Anymore...
I cry, I tried
But she won't listen
She won't listen
I cry, I try
These thoughts won't glisten
Won't glisten
Brighten up back to the day
When it didn't matter what we'd say
Won't glisten
Won't glisten
Oh it tears me up inside
To know that she decided
I'm not a part of her
I'm not a part of her
Anymore...
I wasn't real to her
Reality not
Since I was caught
I wanna make her purr
I wanna make you purr!
I wanna make you purr!
I wanna make you purr!
I wanna make you purr!
Oh it tears me up inside
To know that she decided
I'm not a part of her
I'm not a part of her

I think I'm hyper
But I think I'm tired
Come get the coal
And help me light my fire
Yeah! Yeah!
Don't think I'd tell ya
If I knew my place
Just cuz I need this don't
Put down your face
Yeah! Yeah!
He lied (3x)
He lied to her again
Couldn't have ya walking
All over the room
Leave me in my dusty spot
The corner of gloom
Yeah! Yeah!
But if ya watch that way
I wouldn't be so late
A little hyperactivity
And at this rate...
I'm....slowing....down....
He lied (3x)
He lied to her again!
There wasn't anything that they could do
To fix there relationship from being through
He was sorry but she wouldn't believe
If she did, trust wasn't recieved
Seeing as how, it wasn't what he or she wanted
But it happened so fast and just so bluntly
Yea yea
He hid it from her, not knowing why
Wasn't who he said, but he fits the lie
He was sensitive but I don't think she cared
She just couldn't trust him if the truth wasn't there
(screaming)
He cried! (6x)
He didn't lie! (6x)
He cried (3x)
And he cries to her again...
The blood I've shed
All by will
Strengthened by darkness
Derived from kill
I know you feel me
But your not breathing
Got another story
But the pulse is reading
Blood doesn't kill me otherwise
Blood doesn't kill me otherwise
Iron heart, lenghty demise
Blood doesn't kill me otherwise
Blood doesn't kill me otherwise
You've got to try it,
whats there to lose? What's there to lose?
What's there to lose?
You've made it difficult
