COACH

How many times have you turned your back on me? Often enough to make me go insane Why do you do it? Couldn't you just let me be? Anyone else would have been allowed Nobody else showed up I was alone, so I was denied Be honest with me Everything I do is for my betterment Destruction of my efforts Efforts I did for myself Dedicate yourself and I'll dedicate myself Catch my drift? All my work means nothing The knowledge you have is useless Everything is a waste Dedication is the key That's total bullshit On day one, you deny me You tell me the good Only to knock me down later Until you back up what you say, Why don't you go to Hell? Heaven knows I try Even though I know you will deny Nothing you say proves true You feed us the same line all the time Only to realize you know you're lying Until you tell the truth Are you going to expect our best? Realize that being truthful, Even for a day, Nets more than you'd believe One player's enough Try to understand this Don't deny me Everything I do is for myself Don't let it go to waste I want in Can't you let me in? All the benefits will go to you There will be trust again Enter this world of realization Dedication is two-sided This is most certainly true Open the door for me Maybe it will pay off Enjoy it while it's there.

OPEN THE GYM, DAMMIT!  IF YOU WANT US TO BE DEDICATED TO YOU, YOU HAVE TO BE DEDICATED TO US, AS A TEAM AND AS INDIVIDUALS.  ONE DISAPPOINTMENT IN THE SUMMER LEADS TO THOUSANDS IN THE SEASON.  WE WILL REMEMBER YOUR DENIAL.  DON'T PLAY FAVORITES.  IF I WERE A "STAR," YOU'D OPEN IT NO PROBLEM, BUT I'M JUST A LOWLY "SCRUB."  SHOW SOME RESPECT FOR THOSE OF US WHO ACTUALLY HAVE TO WORK TO GET WHERE WE ARE.  WE ARE NOT ALL NATURAL ATHLETES.  LET US PLAY, EVEN IF NO ONE ELSE WANTS TO.
