Good Morning

Kanye West · Graduation [2007]

Good morning x4



Wake up, Mr. West, Mr. West, Mr. Fresh

Mr. by-his-self-he-so-impressed

i mean, damn, did you even see the test

you got D's motherf**ker, D's, Rosie Perez

and yes, barely pass any and every class

lookin' at every ass

cheated on every test

I guess this is my dissertation

Homie, this shit is basic

Welcome to graduation



Good morning x4



Good morning

On this day we become legendary

Everything we dreamed of

I'm like a fly Malcolm X

Buy any jeans necessary

Detroit wear cleaned up

From the streets of the league

From an eigth to a ki

But you graduate when you make it up outta the streets

From the moments of pain

Look how far we done came

Haters sayin' ya changed

Now ya doin' ya thang



Good morning x4



Good morning

look at the valedictorian scared of the future

while I hop in the Delorean

scared-to-face-the-world complacent career student

some people graduate, but we still stupid

they tell you read this, eat this, don't look around

just peep this, preach us, teach us, Jesus

okay, look up now, they done stole your streetness

after all of that, you receive this



Good morning

Hustlers, that's if you're still livin'

Get on down

Every time that we hear them

Good morning

Hustlers, that's if you're still livin'

Get on down

Every time that we hear them

Good morning

Hustlers, that's if you're still livin'

Get on down

Every time that we hear them

Good morning

Hustlers, that's if you're still livin'

Get on down



Get on down

Get, get on down

Get on down

Get, get on down

Good Morning

Kanye West's 'Good Morning' from the 2007 album *Graduation* serves as a high-energy opener that sets the tone for the record's fusion of hip-hop and electronic dance music. The track features a driving beat and production that reflects the artist's signature style during this pivotal era, blending pop sensibilities with experimental soundscapes. As part of the *Graduation* catalogue, the song exemplifies the shift toward a more polished, radio-friendly approach while maintaining the innovative spirit that defined West's work. It stands as a key recording in his discography, showcasing his ability to craft anthemic tracks that resonate within the broader context of late 2000s hip-hop and pop culture.
