Risin' Above The Pack Lyrics

It's day one at employee orientation
You don't know how you gonna
Survive
You look to the left and look to the
Right
And wonder how you got in the room

Don't you know they're all
Feeling the same way
Time to arbitrage their insecurity
Wipe it away and fill with desire
To rise to the top of your company

Risin' above the pack
To the top of the leader board

Now if you're willing to work for it
Then rest ends up easier than you
Think
Make sure the terms for success
Are clearly defined
Know what's expected and exceed it
Always do what you say you're gonna
Do
Don't bring people problems
But bring them solutions
Yeah with self confidence and
Humility
You'll ask for and receive
The feedback you need To rise above the pack

Now as you nurse that raging
Ambition
Don't make the mistake of believing
That management is the only road to the top of the company
Great individual contributors
Are every bit as valuable
You just gotta know yourself
And play to your strengths
And soon you'll be
Risin' above the pack

Now there's a
Double edged sword of ambition
It's natural to impatiently
Wait for recognition
To obsess and pout
And position yourself
To get to that higher level
Well now I'm gonna tell you
To forget what you've learned
Cause if you push
Before you're ready
You're gonna get burned
Just make yourself indispensable
And before you even know it
You'll have risen above the pack
