Stepping Out of My Comfort Zone

I tried doing it positive
But it gets over-looked
Show everybody respect
Stay out of people's way
Earn everybody's trust
Sway away from the stereotypes
Keep it unique but authentic
But its like running on a treadmill
Giving all my energy but not making progress
So now the world left me no choice
I want success and I deserve it
I'm tired of being the Black Sheep
So I pledge to climb the ladder
"By any means necessary"
No more sympathy
No more depression
No more excuses
No more self-doubt
No more procrastination
No more talking, just action
My methods wouldn't work 
I was too comfortable
So now I step out of my comfort zone
I'm on a mission
I now embark without looking back
Code of Silence will be exercised like never before
God, watch over me 24/7
If you get sleepy
Send some Angels to cover your post
Ready...Set...Go...!
