Disclaimer: I once lost a coach. A couple of years ago. Sometimes you don’t know the mark people leave on you and your life until their gone.
This shit don’t even feel right
This thing called life
Sometimes it takes a loss to see the light
All my life I had to fight
Wishing I could end it all with a knife
But I got to fly like a kite
When you was here they didn’t believe I could ball
But you said I could so I gave it my all
Took a couple of falls
But I always got up and gave it my all
I had to crawl
Every day I’m fighting this brawl
You was more than a coach
You was our mentor
You helped us through the storm
When they looked at us and said we was trash
You looked at us and seen cash
We was really worth something started winning in a flash
Got the news today I had to grasp
Thought you was just a thing in my past
No you was the only one that believe in us
When we was down and out
You changed the route
Brought the school clout
We gave it our best shot like steph
Long live big Jeff
Can’t believe you gone
Wrote this in honor of one of the best
R.I.P Big Jeff
I’ll let you rest
Watch over me Coach
It’s K. Exum
