In the United States and Canada, tenure is a contractual right of a teacher or professor not to have his or her position terminated without just cause. It is awarded after a probationary period.
Under the tenure systems adopted by many universities and colleges in the United States and Canada, some faculty positions have tenure and some do not. Typical systems (such as the widely-adopted "1940 Statement of Principles on Academic Freedom and Tenure" of the American Association of University Professors) allow only a limited period to establish a record of published research, ability to attract grant funding, academic visibility, teaching excellence, and administrative or community service. They limit the number of years that any employee can remain employed as a non-tenured instructor or professor, compelling the institution to grant tenure to or terminate an individual, with significant advance notice, at the end of a specified time period. Some institutions require promotion to Associate Professor as a condition of tenure. An institution may also offer other academic positions that are not time-limited, with titles such as Lecturer, Adjunct Professor, or Research Professor, but these positions do not carry the possibility of tenure and are said to be not "tenure track." Typically, they have higher teaching loads, lower compensation, little influence within the institution, few if any benefits, and little protection of academic freedom.
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
