Mac R. Whaley - The Graduate (Intro) lyrics

[Verse 1] We are the Graduate thankfully at the back of it Some of us played an angel and others the devil's advocate We'll be looking at the past of it all/How we evolved To become the men and women we are Tip your caps to yourself/We made it through four years Lost a couple friends and added some more fears But that's all part of stretching a territory seeing Adventure in store buying the whole catalog The Ramblers in the building/Throw ya caps to the ceiling A celebration and a toast to how we made it Late nights finding music to bump Asking for an extension because we didn't get the project done Braving the ten minute walk to lunch In the middle of a winter in Winona, Minnesota Waiting til seven or eight o'clock to get to practice Because we only had one damn gym Convincing you all to hit the weight room To evade the excuse of being made a late bloom For them trips that we made to Garvin/we felt High in the friendly sky word to Marvin Sitting here for one more time Before we're forced to say goodbye Gather round that's if you still elated Get on down if you graduated Yeah tell em [Verse 2] I'm gonna give you an update on me cuz I'm Feeling much stronger and better since The Record I've had to Sit back and listen/to this rapper that's dissin me Trying to garner attention but I will not mention his little Piss-a** name or his whack a** project In fact the six bars here, is all you get Anyways I've been feeling okay/Got Grilled but it faded for a lack of propane This is my soph*more/Do you want more? Then what the hell am I waiting for? I dedicate this tape to my family I wouldn't Be where I am without your love and your caring that goes for Jack Olga Nonna Ron Mom and Dad Kelsey Shane Todd Kevin Sari Uncle Bradd Ian Leah Bill b**bs and my cousins too Let the trumpets fanfare and honor you
