Lyrics
[Intro – 0:00–0:18] (Soft, Breath-Controlled)
(Whisper tone → build presence)
Lead (center):
Yeah yeah…
I learned it all outside the classroom…
Ad-lib (right):
Outside…
Choir (wide, soft):
Outside… outside…
Lead:
Life lessons in every move now…
Choir:
Every move… every groove…
[Verse 1 – 0:18–0:48] (Rhythmic, pocket-focused)
(Sit in the beat—don’t rush)
Couldn’t pay the fees but I had vision
God-given dreams, no tuition
Enrolled in the streets, intuition
Real-life course, full submission
Graduated—honors, resilience
Pain turned purpose, that’s brilliance
Wrote my syllabus, self-written
Stayed ten toes, never quittin’
Ad-libs (light):
– “That’s facts”
– “Never quittin’”
[Pre-Chorus – 0:48–1:02] (Lift + Call/Response)
Lead:
Who need degree when the scars tell story?
Choir (layered):
Tell story… tell story…
Lead (slightly stronger):
Every scar shine back in glory
Choir (fuller):
In glory… in glory…
[Chorus – 1:02–1:32] (FULL ENERGY / HOOK)
University of life — I dey graduate
No cap, no gown — still elevate
No walls, no gates — I navigate
My story loud — I celebrate
(Double this entire section)
University of life — I dey graduate
Lessons hit hard — I demonstrate
From pain to power — I generate
I stand tall — I no duplicate
Ad-libs (Dancehall style):
– “No duplicate!”
– “Elevate!”
[Post-Chorus – 1:32–1:48] (Dance Section)
Oh-na-na, I no duplicate
Oh-na-na, I dey elevate
Oh-na-na, real life validate
University — I graduate
(Pan chant vocals L/R for movement)
[Verse 2 – 1:48–2:18] (More confidence / bounce)
Dem say I no go make am, I smile
Now I walk through fire with style
Planted seeds in the struggle soil
Now I harvest grace from the toil
Corridors of pain, I walked through
Every loss turn gain, I talk truth
Living wise, doing right, stay rooted
Everything I am — God suited
Ad-libs:
– “I smile…”
– “God suited…”
[Pre-Chorus – 2:18–2:32] (Stronger than first)
Who need degree when the scars tell story?
Every bruise turn badge of glory
No paper fit define my journey
Life stamp me — certified, worthy
[Chorus – 2:32–3:02] (BIGGEST ENERGY)
(Add choir heavy here)
University of life — I dey graduate
No cap, no gown — still elevate
No walls, no gates — I navigate
My story loud — I celebrate
From the pain, I rise — no hesitate
Real life wins — I demonstrate
University of life — no debate
I’m living proof — I resonate
[Bridge – 3:02–3:30] (Strip Down → Emotional Peak)
(Drop drums → piano + choir only)
Lead (emotional, slower):
From the school of hard knocks, I rise…
Choir:
We rise… we rise…
Lead:
Every fall made me wise…
Choir:
So wise… so wise…
Lead (build):
All the marks on my soul turn gold…
Choir (FULL):
Turn gold… turn gold…
[Final Chorus – 3:30–4:00] (Anthem Level)
(Everything in—ad-libs everywhere)
University of life — I dey graduate
No cap, no gown — still elevate
No walls, no gates — I navigate
My story loud — I celebrate
[Outro – 4:00–4:15] (Fade / Chant)
University… of life…
