’25 Jays

(Yeah, we were so damn close…)

⸻

We opened up the season with Vladdy swingin’ strong,

Kirk behind the plate, man, he never did us wrong.

Berríos and Gausman, throwin’ heat under dome lights,

And Scherzer came in, lookin’ vintage under stadium nights.

⸻

Felt like we were destined, like history was ours —

24 and 9 in June, dreamin’ under Toronto stars.

⸻

Like the ’25 Jays, yeah, we flew so damn high,

Blue and white in the sky, every fan believed we’d ride.

Took the AL East, felt the city come alive,

Then in the playoffs, boy, we gave it all we had inside.

Yeah, it still stings when I think about that final play,

But I’ll always love the ’25 Jays.

⸻

Bo Bichette at short, makin’ plays night after night,

Mason Fluharty in the pen, lefty fire to close tight.

Jeff Hoffman shut it down, strikeouts looked like a prayer,

While Vladdy crushed a playoff slam, made history out there.

⸻

But autumn came too early — pressure built, nerves showed,

One swing, one pitch, all those hopes almost let go.

⸻

Like the ’25 Jays, we flew so damn high,

Had the city on its feet, dreamin’ blue-bird lullabies.

Took it deep into October, gave our hearts, gave our fight,

Yet heartbreak came in final inning under those lights.

Yeah, it still cuts when that last out dropped that day,

But I’ll always love the ’25 Jays.

⸻

We didn’t just play — we believed,

Walked in the streets of Toronto, hearts on our sleeves.

Maybe next year’s another story, maybe next year’s our claim,

But for now I’ll wear this cap, and whisper your name.

⸻

‘Cause the ’25 Jays, man, they soared so high,

Left a mark in the sky, never gonna say goodbye.

Even though we fell short, we left no doubt in our hearts,

Blue and white forever — from the very start.

And yeah, my eyes sting when I think how we played,

But I’ll die a fan of the ’25 Jays.

⸻

Yeah… I’ll always love the ’25 Jays.
