Exit Sign

I'll demystify your philosophy 
Anytime your perspective my bother me
Because you compartmentalize things
That are connected like Christmas lights on a string 
All potential lies in the ability
To exercise stability and consistency 
Which exemplifies what it is to be the Relentless type 
I won't accept anything less than success if I fail
I'll keep doing it religiously until I get it right
I'm guaranteed to get your undivided attention
And I don't need to intensify my hostility
For you to recognize what I really mean 
When I'm getting my point across 
I've done it too many times 
And I don't expect you guys to empathize
With things you ain't experiencing in your lives 
if I can't make a plan that specifically fits the type
Of job I'm doing screw it I'll improvise
& eventually get the job done efficiently 
Anything I'm attempting I aim for perfection nice
All lessons lie in the mistakes we've made
The greatest Impressions I've left
Were expressed best by my humility 
Which was something they definitely didn't expect to find 
When they visit me,
The only thing that stands the test of time
Is doing things your own way 
Despite expectations thrown in your direction
I'd say they should all get declined upon inspection like
There nothing, So thanks for coming
Please look up & follow the red exit signs or something

My motto is "be you" which means, do it your way, because there are no mistakes in doing it your way. I rarely spend time with people who "compartmentalize". It is such a waste, and I have things to do.

An impressive display of fortitude in the face of opposition, John. Get it or get out of my way. Well done.
