Saul Williams
Some rather seek up high Than dig and grind that inner truth
Saul Williams
Honestly, I don't always want to get up in the mornings, but I do anyway.
Saul Williams
The music aids the message, it's there to punctuate and abbreviate and shape the silence
Saul Williams
I remember back in the day when Chuck D called hip-hop the black people's CNN. Well now, hip-hop is more like Fox News. It's biased, and highly suspect.
