Lyrics

  1. I can almost see it, that vision ahead,
  2. A business direction, the words that were said.
  3. Every test I’m facing, every risk I fight,
  4. Brings me closer to knowing what is right.
  5. It’s not about the audit, not about the grade,
  6. It’s about the mission, the choices that we made.
  7. The business drives us forward, and we stand guard,
  8. Protecting what matters, when the choices get hard.
  9. And when the doubt comes crashing down,
  10. I hear the whisper, clear and sound—
  11. There’s always gonna be another challenge,
  12. Always gonna wanna fix with tech.
  13. First, align with business objectives,
  14. Sometimes we’re gonna see a wreck.
  15. But it’s not about some blind compliance,
  16. I-T ain't waiting on the other side.
  17. Just align! Yeah, it’s aligned!
  18. If it’s ethics we betray, or a human life at stake,
  19. That’s the line we never cross, the promise we can’t break.
  20. But in the world of firewalls, audits, and review,
  21. The measure of success is how we help them break through.
  22. And when the noise is all around,
  23. I stand steady, I’ve found—
  24. There’s always gonna be another challenge,
  25. Always gonna wanna fix with tech.
  26. First, align with business objectives,
  27. Sometimes we’re gonna see a wreck.
  28. But it’s not about some blind compliance,
  29. I-T ain't waiting on the other side.
  30. Just align! Yeah, it’s aligned!
  31. It’s not the grade, it’s not the score,
  32. It’s what we’re truly standing for.
  33. When the shadows fall, when the systems shake,
  34. We choose the road the business has to take.
  35. There’s always gonna be another challenge,
  36. Always gonna wanna fix with tech.
  37. First, align with business objectives,
  38. Sometimes we’re gonna see a wreck.
  39. But it’s not about some blind compliance,
  40. I-T ain't waiting on the other side.
  41. Just align! Yeah, it’s aligned!
  42. Even when the winds are brisk,
  43. It’s time to deal with all the risk.
  44. So what’s acceptable is divine,
  45. Just align!!!!!!!!!
