[Intro]
We've been turning living rooms into life rooms
We've been turning living rooms into life rooms

[Verse 1]
Four years of school to get to college
Four years of that for a degree
It's easier to master knowledge
Than it is to master me

[Pre-Chorus]
But I'm making this my graduation party
It took awhile for me to make it there
When I showed up the ceremony started
I threw my cap up in the air, ooh

[Chorus 1]
Oh I know, I gotta graduate
Can't stay here forever, gotta graduate
Old things pass away when I graduate
All things become new when I graduate

[Verse 2]
Thank the Lord that I'm much smarter
Than I'd ever thought I'd be
I won't fail again, I promise
Hey, that's a promise that I gotta keep
[Pre-Chorus]
So I'm making this my graduation party
It took awhile for me to make it here
When I showed up the ceremony started
I threw my cap up in the air, ooh

[Chorus 2]
All I know, I gotta graduate
Can't stay here forever, gotta graduate
Anybody know we gotta graduate
Gotta grow up now, graduate
I've gotta, graduate
Yeah I've gotta graduate
Oh, I know it's time I better graduate
Gotta move on, graduate
What was once in the windshield, is now in my rear view, graduate
The Enemy gonna have to come up with something new (graduate)
'Cause I ain't who I used to be I done graduated

[Post-Chorus]
Graduate, ooh, graduate
Ooh, graduate (I gotta)
Ooh, graduate
Ooh, graduate
Ooh, graduate (gotta graduate)
Ooh, yeah
[Outro]
Keep it going
Graduation
You gotta celebrate
Graduate
Today you are great
Graduation
Has arrived
It's upon ya
You're going to the next level
Next level...
