A speaker reflects on life lessons learned through playing sports—particularly high-school football—and how perceptions of older teammates/coaches change with age. The speaker notes that individuals once seen as "old" in their late 20s often seemed wiser once the listener reached their late 20s/30s, and that coaching young players motivates one to act more wisely when looked up to.
So a lot of these lessons that was learned through like, you know, speaking and hearing and playing sports and getting, you know, getting taught by these younger, these older men. But at the time when you playing football in high school, these things really never were they 30s. They really don't know shit about life. They're really not that old. They don't really know shit about life. A lot of these niggas was like, a lot of these niggas was like in their late 20s. We thought they were old man in club now. Now that we in our late 20s and 30s, like these, these really want they know what they know about life. You coach high school football, man. Kind of fun to say that now they bigger. They, they bigger. So you feel like they should know more. And I think it, I think when you got people looking up to you, it makes you want to be wise.
