Lyrics:
Your moves on the board, you're taking aim slow
You said "Keep our plans behind the shadows"
I'm just tryna catch you in a checkmate
'Cause you think you're clever with your fake face
I can read your mind, send me the signals
Setting up the pieces, it's a gamble
Found out all your secrets, sent your pawns home
Keep on tryna bluff it, but bae you know

You feel you're winning when the queen-takes flight
The only time you feel a rush in-side, but
Your - Knights - Are - Done
Pawns, Bishops, Rooks Gone
Look - It's Checkmate, Game over
You feel you're winning when the queen-takes flight
The only time you feel a rush in-side, but
Your - Knights - Are - Done
Pawns, Bishops, Rooks Gone
Look - It's Checkmate, Game over

I'ma let you know and keep it honest
Tryna "keep you straight just seems so foolish"
Think you trapped two queens boy you're so dumb
And you gon' have to back it, that's the true deal
I'm done tryna catch you in a setup
Games started feeling like it's wrapped up
I'm just tryna live life for the win now
And all these other bitches get their shit now

You feel you're winning when the queen-takes flight
The only time you feel a rush in-side, but
Your - Knights - Are - Done
Pawns, Bishops, Rooks Gone
Look - It's Checkmate, Game over
You feel you're winning when the queen-takes flight
The only time you feel a rush in-side, but
Your - Knights - Are - Done
Pawns, Bishops, Rooks Gone
Look - It's Checkmate, Game over

Solo Sax

Your moves on the board, you're taking aim slow
You said "Keep our plans behind the shadows"
I'm just tryna catch you in a checkmate
'Cause you think you're clever with your fake face
I can read your mind, send me the signals
Setting up the pieces, it's a gamble
Found out all your secrets, sent your pawns home
Keep on tryna bluff it, but bae you know
