[Verse 1] When budget time comes around again Product teams point to features they can't send Sales teams show the markets left untapped But our success leaves no visible map DevOps, SRE, InfoSec too Our best work hides from leadership view [Chorus] We prevent the problems that never appear Stop the incidents that cause no fear No downtime, no breach, no pipeline break But invisible wins are hard to make Count the absences, not what you see That's our value delivery [Verse 2] The task-taking trap makes it even worse We point to tickets like a counting curse Eight forty-seven closed last quarter's end But that just proves we're playing pretend Measuring tickets validates the lie That our worth is tasks we satisfy [Chorus] We prevent the problems that never appear Stop the incidents that cause no fear No downtime, no breach, no pipeline break But invisible wins are hard to make Count the absences, not what you see That's our value delivery [Bridge] The logic's simple for other teams More people equals more revenue streams But we deliver what isn't there Preventing chaos everywhere Our argument is sophisticated Value real but underrated [Verse 3] Don't justify with ticket volume high That reinforces the task-taking lie Instead show systems running smooth and clean The disasters that have never been Time saved, risks avoided, uptime strong That's where our headcount case belongs [Final Chorus] We prevent the problems that never appear Stop the incidents that cause no fear No downtime, no breach, no pipeline break Invisible wins are what we make Count the absences, frame what you see That's our value delivery That's our value delivery [Outro] When absence is your evidence Make prevention your defense
