[Verse 1]
When the supply chain breaks and systems start to fall
You need a playbook ready, standing ten feet tall
First identify the weakest link, the domino that tips
Database connections, API endpoints, payment chips
[Chorus]
What breaks first, what stays alive
Keep building while systems dive
Shipping product, staying strong
When restrictions come along
Plan for failure, build to last
Recovery systems, move fast
What breaks first, what survives
[Verse 2]
Cloud providers vanish, third-party services down
Your microservices crumble like a house of cards in town
But cache your critical data, mirror all your stores
Keep local backups running, alternative back doors
[Chorus]
What breaks first, what stays alive
Keep building while systems dive
Shipping product, staying strong
When restrictions come along
Plan for failure, build to last
Recovery systems, move fast
What breaks first, what survives
[Bridge]
Circuit breakers hold the line
Graceful degradation by design
Feature flags to turn things off
When the going gets too rough
Rollback plans and staging grounds
Keep your feet upon solid ground
[Verse 3]
Document your dependencies, map the critical path
Know which services can wait and which will feel the wrath
Containerize your workloads, make them portable and light
So when one datacenter fails, you're ready for the fight
[Chorus]
What breaks first, what stays alive
Keep building while systems dive
Shipping product, staying strong
When restrictions come along
Plan for failure, build to last
Recovery systems, move fast
What breaks first, what survives
[Outro]
Build your playbook, test it twice
Resilience comes with sacrifice
When restrictions hit your stack
You'll be ready, fighting back
