Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Your registry goes dark overnight
No packages flowing to your site
The vendor packed up, left your zone
Your pipeline's broken, you're alone
Access denied becomes your theme
When geopolitics kill the dream

[Chorus]
Three denials coming for your code
Access, updates, support overload
Legal prohibition blocks the way
Ownership changes, you must obey
Source available doesn't mean you're free
Build, ship, verify - that's the key

[Verse 2]
App store restrictions lock you out
Certificate authority's in doubt
The signing keys have changed their hands
Your software breaks across all lands
Foundation governance takes a turn
Critical maintainers don't return

[Chorus]
Three denials coming for your code
Access, updates, support overload
Legal prohibition blocks the way
Ownership changes, you must obey
Source available doesn't mean you're free
Build, ship, verify - that's the key

[Bridge]
You can read the source code line by line
But can you build it, make it shine?
Can you ship it to your users fast?
Can you verify it's going to last?
Can you operate when storms arrive?
That's what keeps your stack alive

[Verse 3]
When the maintainer disappears
Your open source project lives in fears
Acquisition brings compliance rules
Forced to use their chosen tools
Distinguish what you think you own
From what works when you're alone

[Chorus]
Three denials coming for your code
Access, updates, support overload
Legal prohibition blocks the way
Ownership changes, you must obey
Source available doesn't mean you're free
Build, ship, verify - that's the key

[Outro]
Plan for when the world divides
Build resilience that survives
Access, updates, support denied
Keep your tech stack fortified
