Ray Lewis Motivational Speech to Hurricanes Players

there's not a person on my team in 16 years that is consistently beaten to the ball every play I think I'm gonna do a talent that's just got everything to do it effort nothing else 15 straight years 12 Pro Bowls later if you want numbers I don't say all of it and the only thing that's kept me around it's my effort so you put on this all I ever knew because I won the number one recruit I won a number one line back I won't even in the media guy all I ever knew what's effort will get me seen on the tape effort will get me notice to get to the lead effort but one day take care my mom and my kids effort which is between you and you nobody else can't give you effort health effort is with inside man and I'm still grinding because the next kid is talking about he getting too old keep watching me if I am nobody ain't got to convince me of what I do I do what I do because I do what I do because I'm built from something and man then created every one of you meaning here I have that opportunity man but I show self the question personally how much time you really waste for real I do you really represent this I represented because it's all I had thrown the Brotherhood I ever been formed to that's why when I see y'all perform on Saturdays daddy is my piece that's why I run to the hotels I don't need to talk to nobody before my games I just need to see what I was came from I said any same chairs you got in sat in man I sent around the greatest athletes in the world and then I found myself totally different because everybody was asking the question who is this kid oh pissed off again another thing handed to the chalkboard I'm not asking nobody here for nothing today I'm not I'm just sharing my story to tell y'all every time you think somebody got a good man ain't always good somebody just some some people just make up their mind and he's just grind and say the heck with it man cuz sometimes that's all you can do how much of our brains are we really gonna use I use mine to tell somebody today except 2 min 11 I step on the field against the Pittsburgh says if that's what God will is there's no other man out there willing to give up what I'm willing to give up I said that in 1993 what I said I wanted to be the greatest hurricane and the only thing that I got in the middle of all of that distance it's the only thing that father's work is results there's no other blueprint I ain't got nor the secrets to tell y'all today I ain't come here for nothing else but to tell you if you want to do something forget it you want a better relationship with God look at you want to understand why pulling your pants up important why yes ma'am I know ma'am is important why been in the media with complete silence with somebody walks in because his presence and essence that determines respect so we talking about the power of respect is never to disrespect that's why I was the first one sitting out in to me um I ain't got nothing to say y'all do y'all good I gotta listen something like that I need to grab from it setting on the same football field you know 1993 and I made a quote and then some people call controversy I call the confidence I said that I might be the greatest player to ever walk up on a university mind I did not say that because I thought I was better than everybody else I said that simply because I was willing to put in the work to now be back here 18 years later and tell you the only Brotherhood I still have it sits on my chest and a shirt boom but I have that real hurricane is finding my heart it's this where it all came from same path y'all walking same cash y'all going in same Greentree y'all walking up and down I had one pair jeans in college for at least two years at least two years question is what are you gonna do at your time what drives you like for real I ain't got much more to say because I feel home and when you home ain't much to say I work spoke for itself that's why I swagger came from I swagger came from we work as a unit I came to the University of Miami that was one mind one set one heartbeat it was impossible to get to us because if you saw somewhere you saw 15 or 20 of us gotta stop leaving each other gotta stop hanging out without each other the screen Saint chasing the same things you chase manic temptations idea just stay focused man as a team though as a team that's all I knew when I was here that's what kind of kept me focused that I finally ran into a team and you guys have that same thing because there's you is you're never done and I never die so it's up to you to care that it's up to you to character and every Sunday every Saturday everything is talked about I mean listen we're gonna respect the lolly colleges but there's one college that everybody wants to talk about every Saturday what do you em do what do you em do that's all everybody want to talk about we can be having the biggest game in the world you won't want yesterday I know what you carry and you carry this you on your chest no what you carry man you carry on legacy legacy greatness greatness is a lot of small things done well take after day workout after workout obedience after obedience day after day eighteen years later I'm here to say hurricanes with only ten people respect the most because it's something about us that makes us special
