Lyrics

[Verse]
Knight jumps squares, cut paths like a scythe
Bishop's blade sharp, diagonal strife
King moves slow, but the queen's in the fight
Pawns march steady, battlefield of the night
Castle’s walls crumble, no sanctuary here
Rooks on the move, edges creeping near
My mind’s a chessboard, strategy severe
Sacrifice a piece, leave your defense unclear
[Chorus]
Checkmate, no escape, feel the weight
Board’s set, you too late, it’s your fate
Checkmate, no debate, sealed your state
One wrong move, now you’re checkmate
[Verse 2]
Plot thick like smoke in a dungeon hall
Each step planned, no room for the small
Clock’s ticking fast, hear the timepiece call
Lose your queen early, watch the empire fall
I'm a grandmaster with disaster in my veins
Every square a story, every piece a chain
You gambled your position, now you’re out the game
Shadows whisper moves, but the outcome’s the same
[Bridge]
Tension builds, every second heavy
Mind sharp, cutting moves like machete
Opposition crumbles, steady, steady
Victory’s mine, grip firm, hands sweaty
