Graduation Day Lyrics
I told you to do some shit for the kids
You can give me your muthafucking graduation ticket right now
You will not walk across that stage, you won’t slide across that stage
A muthafucka can’t pull you across that stage Kanye
Who told you see, I told you to do something up lifting
I’m trynna get you out here with these white people and this how you gone do me
You know what us a nigga
And I don’t mean that in no nice way
Had little kids sing about the shit, the jokes on you
You throw your mutha hands in the air, and wave good-bye to everybody
Cause you getting the fuck out of this campus
Mutha what you gone do now
I'm about to break the rules but don't tell anybody.
I got something better than school but don't tell anybody.
My momma would kill me but don't anybody.
she wants me to get a good ass job just like everybody.
She ain'twalked in my shoes i'm just not everybody.
the start of this track is hilarious!especially the line: "A muthafucka can’t pull you across that motherfucking stage Kanye!" - i cant help shouting it out myself!yeah im weird like that!
Damn, not too many people know about the beat at the end of Bernie Mac's ranting. One of Kanye's best beats. I think it's John Legend doing vocals and Miri Bin-Ari on the violin. Listen to this skit!
I agree with you Hee-Haw, I love the that beat, it truly shows how much of a Genius Kanye West truly is
This and the previous track "We Don't Care" remind me of the book by Ralph Ellison, "Invisible Man." In the book, the hero is supposed to take this white man on a drive and just show him around the college campus, but he ends up bringing him by the old slave quarters and the rich white man sees some of what the deep south is really like. The hero gets expelled from his college. I don't know, it just reminds me of the book, how he's going, look here's what it's really like, and then he gets expelled.
