Brad

Go, Brad.
It’s time for you to leave.
You can’t stay here
you’re not welcome in this neighborhood.
You’re not welcome in the state.
You’ve been hiding in safety for too long
avoiding the dangers waiting
right outside the door
that need to be faced.

You must confront the demons
that made you hide.
You must face those who hate you
and arrive at some conclusion.
And that may be your end
but after push and shove
an end is gonna come anyway.
You have to try.
You have to get out.

You’ve gotta go.
You’ve got to meet the threats
and figure out which is which’s master.
You’ve got to grow up
get moving
find a better place to call home.
You have to mature
improve
arrive at something more, boy.
You have to change.

I’m doing this for you.
I’m doing this for us.
I’m doing this to get my coach back.
You’ve got to go, Brad.
You have to leave.
