Graduation
Embracing Life's Storms: Destiny Malibu's Graduation Anthem
Lyrics
Living on the edge of a dream
Living in pursuit of an ambitious goal
Gotta wake up early get my stuff and roll
Need to start the day early and get going
I’m really tryna make my mark reach far beyond what I already think I know
Striving to surpass current knowledge and achievements
Gotta keep growing, keep moving, rack knowledge in this cranium
Continuously learning and accumulating knowledge
That’s the only way I’ll graduate from this stadium
Growing and evolving in life to progress
In life, it’s alright, you fall down, you pick back up
Facing challenges but persisting despite setbacks
You got ladder climbers, and social pleasers, and people you can’t trust
Encountering different types of people in life
Just hold your breath, you gotta swim through it
Pushing through difficulties
Build a team of people you love
Surrounding oneself with a supportive community
And when that day ends and that sunset sets, thank the Man above
Expressing gratitude for blessings
We’ll be alright alright
Assurance that things will be fine
We’ll be ok ok
Reaffirmation of being okay
Just let the rain wash our fears away
Letting go of fears through metaphorical cleansing
X2
Repetition for emphasis
Breathing like I might be inhaling some souped up dose of oxygen
Feeling invigorated and alive
Your love is my escape when all the demons try to box me in
Love serves as a refuge from negativity
Triple lock the doors, make no room for the negative
Rejecting negativity and focusing on positivity
Let the rain drip drip off your skin like some medicine
Allowing healing and growth from hardships
Practice finding peace when they try and test your temperament
Seeking calmness during challenging situations
That’s the only way you’re gonna make it out the lion’s den
Remaining composed amid difficult circumstances
Clap back with some loving and a humble dose of confidence
Responding to negativity with kindness and confidence
Say thank you to your haters
Acknowledging and appreciating detractors
Stars can’t shine without some darkness
Highlighting the necessity of challenges for growth
We’ll be alright alright
Reiteration of assurance
We’ll be ok ok
Reaffirmation of being okay despite challenges
Just let the rain wash our fears away
Letting go of fears through metaphorical cleansing (repeat)
X2
Repetition for emphasis
We’re alright, it’s alright, we’re ok
Reiteration of being okay
The sun comes up even when it rains rains
Highlighting resilience despite difficulties
We’re alright, it’s alright, we’re ok
Reiteration of being okay
The sun comes up even when it rains
Emphasizing resilience during hardships
We’re alright, it’s alright, we’re ok
Reiteration of being okay
The sun comes up even when it rains rains
Stressing resilience amidst challenges (repeat)
We’re alright, it’s alright, we’re ok
Reiteration of being okay
The sun comes up even when it rains
Stressing resilience even in difficult times
