(Intro:)

Fuck!

Listen to the elders, listen to what they say

Most of the lies that they lie is the same truth that you know

Oh my God (my homies know me)

Oh my God (yea)

(Verse:)

I gotta be the king on this chess board I call my life

Went through tutorial at 2019

I had niggas against my glory 'fore I was 16

You know how it felt to see my father going six feet?

Now I'm playing the game without a queen

Loose myself or kill myself

I was somewhere in between

If they ask if I'd still love again

I'll say that I'll still give it a try

But same issue is I still didn't cry

Now I wonder why it's similar to when papa died

It took a whilе for me to process

I have a brothеr, my "knight"

Shining star in bright armor

One love, mi amor

Them homies dámò

Everyday lo'n gbomo

Bad guy, o shamo

Muhammed

The bishop in my life, you my blood brother

You poured in the ice into the hot water

Do not sweat it, you will go further

We the Gingerbread men with the bread mehn

We don't stutter, so we speak the truth

I'm not a rook, so if you try to get a laugh out of my moves, you a fool to me

I'm always one step to greatness

Bad things are sure to happen to someone's process in greatness

I castled, means I didn't fold through the hassle

And now I lock the doors cause of PTSD

Everybody sees a pawn till it reaches the other side

"Swear ain't no other piece can move like this"

(Hook:)

I move for the queen that's my mother that's end game

You know where I'm coming from, the truth is in the pen game

They notice how I'm rapping, so they ask about the gang name

The homies know me well that every game I play is a checkmate

(Checkmate, checkmate)

(Checkmate)

(Bridge:)

I gatchu, tell the rest that I'm chill

I gatchu, tell the rest that I'm chill

(Hook:)

I move for the queen that's my mother that's my end game (I gatchu, tell the rest that I'm chill)

You know where I'm coming from, the truth is in the pen game (I gatchu, tell the rest that I'm chill)

They notice how I'm rapping, so they ask about the gang name

The homies know me well that every game I play is a checkmate

(Checkmate, checkmate)

(Checkmate)

(Outro:)

(Checkmate)

Shit

I've got these feelings in my leg
