Default Ideas For Grad Song

So ever since I first entered high school, I've been determined to avoid being part of a grad class that gets stuck with either Nickleback or some shitty pop country song as our grad song. With that being said, I'm having an incredibly difficult time looking for a song that

A) has some overlying theme of growing up, moving on, graduating, idk some sort of connection.

B) can be enjoyed by the majority of people.

C) isn't the same mainstream pop/country pop that most of my grad class listens to.

So, you know, any help in finding a suitable song would be appreciated plz.

My band cloudcover wrote an entire album (called Memento...it will forever be an extremely emotional album for me) about this back when we graduated high school in 2012.

The title track of our album Memento is a pretty solid one if you ask me

The faculty might not be thrilled about the title, but **** schools...
