Dear Anon,
I got your message — read every word that you said
I can feel the weight behind it, all that Raptors red
You care deep, and I respect that a lot
But success don’t grow overnight in this spot

I’m not blind, I know the team’s been rough
But trust me, the league’s cold — we gotta be tough
You want bold moves? I've made a few
Traded a star for a chip — I do what I gotta do

Sometimes it’s quiet ‘cause I’m working behind
Evaluating talent with a longer-term mind
You say we’re mid — and I hear that too
But I ain’t blowing it up just to please the view

Development takes time, and culture ain’t loud
It’s built every day, far from the crowd
I could sell hope like it’s candy in June
But I’d rather build a team that peaks in June

You say you’re loyal, and I believe that’s true
But loyalty’s tested when it’s hard to push through
I ain’t leaving, I’m here for the ride
This city, this squad — they’re my pride

So stay with us, Anon, even when it’s slow
I promise we’ll rise again — just not overnight, though
