Chess

[Intro Skit]

So you find it's a chess game. Except in this chess, the board is made of water that's just flowing, and all the chess pieces are spoken. You can make all the moves you want, they will not affect the outcome

[Verse 1]

In the grand scheme of life we like pieces on the board

Look inside yours, you a king, or a pawn?

I came from a scene where the kids on water

God forbid they see five, get your things, hit the border

Like a sicilian defense

Go ahead and play silly, you'll get billy clubbed to death

Welcome to the city, ain't no sympathy for rats

Where the whites move first and you go second, cause you're black

Was it Rayful, was it Reagan, did the 80's hold 'em back?

This is no connect four but blood spilling for connects

Years later niggas still up in that trap

Thank God that a nigga had that rap

Cause after school, played that corner like a rook

That's when niggas getting book, out there tryna get their last move

He gon' need that check mate

And every night they take L's straight to the face

Let's play

[Verse 2]

In the grand scheme of life we like pieces on the board

Look inside yours, you a king, or a pawn?

Now for that juice, would you Bishop, double cross?

See they move so many squares,  Damier falling off

They was getting bread, getting on

Stupid nigga cutting grass, while my peers moving lawns

Now move along, pawns never get the Queens

I'm the only nigga here like Ron Simmons in the ring

Now I'm winning in the streets

Raf Simons shit, discreet

Bob Marley, Bob Dylan, Bob Fischer on that beat

Genius, me, fresh no Esteban

Best be on your toes, you trying to avoid the blitz

We up
