Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Start with source of truth in Git repository
Infrastructure as code, that's our territory  
Declarative configs tell us what should be
Not the how or when, just the final state we see
Push a commit up and watch the magic flow
Automated systems make the changes go

[Chorus]
Git-Ops, Git-Ops, Git is the source of truth
Pull, compare, and reconcile, that's the proof
Desired state meets current state
When they drift apart, don't wait
Converge, converge, make them align
Git-Ops keeps your infrastructure fine

[Verse 2]
Pipeline triggers when you merge that pull request
Continuous integration puts your code to test
Deploy to staging first, then production follows
Automated gates prevent those painful swallows
Kubernetes operators watch the cluster tight
Compare what is with what should be in sight

[Chorus]
Git-Ops, Git-Ops, Git is the source of truth
Pull, compare, and reconcile, that's the proof
Desired state meets current state
When they drift apart, don't wait
Converge, converge, make them align
Git-Ops keeps your infrastructure fine

[Bridge]
Drift detection running every single minute
If someone changed the system, agents will begin it
Reconciliation loop brings everything back
To the state defined in Git, that's the track
Observability shows you what went wrong
Rollback to previous commit, stay strong

[Verse 3]
ArgoCD and Flux are tools that lead the way
Helm charts and Kustomize help you deploy each day  
Webhooks notify when changes are complete
Monitoring dashboards make the cycle neat
Security policies enforce what's allowed
GitOps principles make your team feel proud

[Chorus]
Git-Ops, Git-Ops, Git is the source of truth
Pull, compare, and reconcile, that's the proof
Desired state meets current state
When they drift apart, don't wait
Converge, converge, make them align
Git-Ops keeps your infrastructure fine

[Outro]
Version control for infrastructure
Automated reconciliation for sure
GitOps workflow, keep it tight
Infrastructure as code done right
