Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Sixty days in, now it's time to present
Your findings to the C-suite, make the story cement
Not security mandates, but business decisions clear
Frame every risk in language executives hear
Material threats mapped to revenue streams
Show them the landscape, not technical dreams

[Chorus]
Align and earn, that's the golden rule
Risk priorities, make them your tool
Board room ready with a narrative strong
Support the growth, where security belongs
Days sixty-one to ninety, build your foundation right
Earn the trust, then claim your sight

[Verse 2]
Get explicit alignment on what they'll tolerate
Which risks they'll accept, which ones they'll hate
Establish measurements in business terms alone
Revenue protection, make your value known
If board access comes, prepare that briefing tight
Cyber landscape, capabilities in sight

[Chorus]
Align and earn, that's the golden rule
Risk priorities, make them your tool
Board room ready with a narrative strong
Support the growth, where security belongs
Days sixty-one to ninety, build your foundation right
Earn the trust, then claim your sight

[Bridge]
Now you've earned the right to evolve
Tech stack decisions, problems to solve
Phased roadmap connecting maturity gains
To business outcomes, breaking the chains
Governance structures embedding deep
Not bolted on, promises to keep

[Verse 3]
By day ninety, strategy documented clear
Risk appetite approved by executives here
Metrics tied to revenue, cost control tight
Twelve-month roadmap, initiatives in sight
Internal champions, measurement frame
Tell the business if the program's got game

[Outro]
Align and earn, foundation complete
Business language makes security sweet
Ready to build from this solid ground
Where trust and strategy can be found
