Graduation Day Lyrics

Cover art for Graduation Day lyrics by Kanye West

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.
