I would have to agree that the song was written before his passing. Although i think it would give more meaning to Cherry, i guess i could see it going to Greg Graffin. I am not aware of a connection between the two that would lead to this, though. If you read the letter about Jim's passing, you would have seen him talk about him helping with the song writing when he was in high school. Ditching class and scribbling in his notebook. I think that would justify "You're the reason that i play at all." Just a mix of both opinions. He might have meant it for Greg, but it makes great sense for Jim
