Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Legacy systems crumble like forgotten towers
Six paths diverge when transformation calls
Rehost and lift, shift computing power
Replatform engines through migration halls
Refactor code where architecture crawls
Repurchase software when the old system falls

[Chorus]
Six Rs unlock the modernization door
Rehost, Replatform, Refactor and more
Repurchase, Retire what serves no more
Retain what works - that's the architect's core
Digital waves crash on legacy shore
Transform today for tomorrow's encore

[Verse 2]
Cloud adoption frameworks chart the course
AWS compass, Azure maps unfold
Google's constellation guides migration force
Assessment matrices reveal stories untold
Technical debt quantified, risks controlled
Migration roadmaps worth their weight in gold

[Chorus]
Six Rs unlock the modernization door
Rehost, Replatform, Refactor and more
Repurchase, Retire what serves no more
Retain what works - that's the architect's core
Digital waves crash on legacy shore
Transform today for tomorrow's encore

[Verse 3]
Robots dancing through repetitive tasks
RPA soldiers march in automated lines
Low-code wizards craft what business asks
No-code citizens weave workflow designs
Orchestration engines synchronize signs
Process improvement through digital shrines

[Bridge]
Government standards illuminate the space
Service design thinking shapes citizen face
GC Digital Standards set the baseline
User satisfaction metrics align
Cost reduction, deployment time decline
Success measured in the bottom line

[Chorus]
Six Rs unlock the modernization door
Rehost, Replatform, Refactor and more
Repurchase, Retire what serves no more
Retain what works - that's the architect's core
Digital waves crash on legacy shore
Transform today for tomorrow's encore

[Outro]
Assessment, planning, execution flow
Modernization seeds begin to grow
From legacy chains to digital glow
The architect's vision starts to show
