Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Enterprise spans horizons wide, strategic vision crystal clean
Operational zooms microscope tight, daily battles rarely seen
One maps tsunamis years ahead, the other spots the morning rain
Board rooms architect the fortress while departments fight each stain

[Chorus]
HIGH LEVEL MAPS THE BATTLEFIELD
GROUND LEVEL FIGHTS THE WAR
Strategic shields and tactical yields
Both guard what matters more
Integration weaves the armor tight
Governance holds the core
Enterprise and operational sight
Two eyes watch every door

[Verse 2]
CEO scans market earthquakes, CFO counts currency storms
While procurement checks supplier hiccups, IT patches platform forms
Three lines of defense cascade down from oversight committees
First line owns and operates risks, second monitors and sees

[Chorus]
HIGH LEVEL MAPS THE BATTLEFIELD
GROUND LEVEL FIGHTS THE WAR
Strategic shields and tactical yields
Both guard what matters more
Integration weaves the armor tight
Governance holds the core
Enterprise and operational sight
Two eyes watch every door

[Bridge]
Risk appetite flows from summit peaks
To valley floors where workers toil
KRIs bubble up from basement leaks
While strategy prevents the soil
From eroding underneath our plans
Dashboard metrics tell the tale
Both helicopter and microscope hands
Must coordinate or systems fail

[Verse 3]
COSO framework builds the skeleton, risk committees flesh the bones
Internal audit validates the pulse while business owners hold the phones
Quarterly reports climb upward bound, daily checks stay close to home
One prevents the empire's collapse, one keeps engines in the dome

[Final Chorus]
HIGH LEVEL MAPS THE BATTLEFIELD
GROUND LEVEL FIGHTS THE WAR
Strategic shields and tactical yields
Both guard what matters more
Integration weaves the armor tight
Governance holds the core
Enterprise and operational sight
Two eyes watch every door

[Outro]
When both perspectives synchronize
The fortress stands secure
Risk management amplifies
What auditors ensure
