MC Crae - Caps Off to You [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[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-ass name or his whack ass 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 sophomore/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 Boobs and my cousins too
Let the trumpets fanfare and honor you
