Castles in BK

[Produced by Thanks Joey]

[Hook]

Nigga it’s chess, not checkers

Don’t let emotion control you and fuck the whole event

You gotta move your pieces and control your centre

You gotta move in peace and control your centre

[Verse 1]

I never stop no matter what the competitor’s gotta say

Chop it up like an edit, a predator’s gotta prey

Stand down, look at my city right in the face

[?] recognize that we caught up in yesterday

Hey, wait, I’m building castles out in Brooklyn

This chess, not checkers, watch the king switch with the rook

And then it’s checkmate nigga

The check play [?] then it’s [?] bricking up your chest plate nigga

Soul inventors never no pretenders

It’s like my borough is my co-defender

Ain’t no agenda besides control the centre

Is it the hustlers or the customers that‘s co-dependent?

If the knight takes the bishop, does he go to Heaven?

That’s the question, science versus religion

Apply it to higher living you’ll find it’s the same mission

My flow is lotus position, you’re broken up like a bedframe

You can’t advance on the board without an endgame

So what’s your endgame?

[Hook]

[Verse 2]

Life ain’t a game, it’s a bitch and she gonna diss you

You tryna master the game like you searching for Bobby Fischer

You fallin’ victim to the lies you be clutching on

Such a pawn to the bandwagon you jumping on

We ain’t game players, we’re game changers who spray up the train

And remain famous, my neighbours be waving flags like gang bangers

The knights and the police patrol the blocks on horses

The bishop saw the priest, they asking who to worship

Everybody claim the king, it ain’t a secret

That the king the most important but the king also the weakest

Especially when his queen is gone he be leanin’ on the other for protection

See your queen is much more than just affection, word

I need my queens to recognise their power

Got the world in your palm like Ms. Hill’s “Final Hour”

I forever stay clever, knock you out like Mayweather

For the belt cause the most difficult opponent is myself, yes

[Hook]
