[Verse 1] Fourteen dashboards, Monday morning haze Every number pulling different ways Revenue is up, the users leave The boardroom cheers — I still can't breathe A sky of scattered light above my desk A thousand stars — I can't tell which one's best [Chorus] Find your north star One number in the dark What you measure is what you become What you chase is what you are Not the revenue — the value Find your north star [Verse 2] Nights booked, rides taken, messages sent Every company found what winning meant Facebook counted monthly — doing fine Switched to daily, everything realigned "Bring them back" became the battle cry The product bent to match a single "why" [Chorus] Find your north star One signal through the noise What you measure is what you become Every metric was a choice Not the revenue — the value Find your north star [Bridge] But careful what you choose, it cuts both ways Facebook brought them back — they couldn't leave Congress called, the papers filled for days The metric worked — that's the thing you grieve What gets measured gets managed, that's the deal Be sure you want the world your number builds [Final Chorus] Find your north star One number in the dark What you measure is what you become What you build is what you are Not the revenue — the value you deliver Find your north star [Outro] You only need one light to find your way Pick the one that matters Start today
