[Verse 1] Day one walking through the boardroom door Numbers dancing on the revenue floor Products shipping, customers paying bills This machine has gears and you need those skills Not the frameworks that you memorized But the heartbeat of how profit flies [Chorus] It's not about you, it's the business view Listen first before you build it through Understand the money, guard what matters most Security serves, don't play the host Trade-offs spinning, priorities clash Know their world before you make your splash [Verse 2] CEO sees dollar signs and market share Board members counting costs with careful stare Leading with your headcount shopping list Sounds like budget drain they can't dismiss Credibility grows when you can see How cyber threats touch their reality [Chorus] It's not about you, it's the business view Listen first before you build it through Understand the money, guard what matters most Security serves, don't play the host Trade-offs spinning, priorities clash Know their world before you make your splash [Bridge] Revenue engines need protection schemes But first decode their operational dreams What breaks their sales? What stops production? Map the risks to business function [Verse 3] Ninety days to prove you comprehend How security can defend and extend Tools and frameworks come in phase two First show them that you see what they do When you speak their language of the ledger You become their trusted cyber hedger [Final Chorus] It's not about you, it's the business view Listen first before you build it through Understand the money, guard what matters most Security serves, don't play the host Prove you know how money flows each day Then they'll trust your program all the way [Outro] Business first, then build what fits That's the code that never quits
