[Verse 1]
They praise you today, back-stab you tomorrow
They're gonna come back around when you shoot for stars like Apollo
That's how it go don't let yourself get swallowed by sorrow
When it comes to being a saint, I'm far from a model
And you can't payback time wasted because all that is borrowed
But money is time and I have none to waste
While you run to the bank greedy on a paper chase
When the reaper calls what you gon use to pay?
And I don't claim or say I'm above it, I share the same fate
Money motivates, I can feel the green in my veins
But I need the change to make a change
I don't care if you relate
Make no mistake that's my goal after my graduation day
I'm so far from it
Graduation Day oooohhh I'm gonna love it
I still dream of it
I guess you can say I'm getting lazy at the end of my tape, because I ain't even gonna come up with a hook. I think it's just better to let the sample rock, it tells the whole story. Yeah, let it rock
[Verse 2]
They pray for you today turn their back on you tomorrow
But you'll appreciate the hate when inside you feel hollow
You get no love my hearts as dark charcoal
But I'm not surprised, love and hate they both earned
My life is like the walking dead, I get to see my friends turn
To enemies to the right and left of me til I leave them for dead
They expect things to change like special effects
I treated you like blood without throwing up a set
Now our friendship's in flames, I guess in hell's where it rests
Same number, don't bother to call or text
You failed the test so while you loading up techs
I'm writings texts so I can flex
But won't be checking to see if you're impressed on
Graduation Day because I'm so far from it
Graduation Day you know I'm gonna love it
And I still dream of it
I wonder ya'll gon know who I'm talking about. I mean It's pretty obvious even though like only like two people will be able to guess. But it's ight. Once again we're just gonna let the sample rock, play out, yeah
[Verse 3]
They love you today, JFK you tomorrow
Life can be harder than the liquor that you keep in your bottles
But I worry bout the pacing, you just going full throttle
But if you really want a war I'll make sure I'm full auto
Because when I eventually outlast and surpass
I'll be all grown up and leave you looking like rugrats
Fun fact I've noticed your fake love act
Don't come at me with all that toxicity
Acting like I'm the only one who can't achieve
You wouldn't get my blessing even if you sneezed
I'll curse through my teeth
And I'll curse you until it hurts, until one of use winds up in the dirt, until I go berserk on my
Graduation Day because I'm so far from it
Graduation Day but you know I'm gonna love it
And I still dream of it
Yeah so, you're almost at the end. Can;t wait for you to hear the next song. It tells everything. We're just gonna let it play out
