Chess

Chess is next level but millennials never learn
Plan ahead, step by step, ready to return and emerge
Victorious, feel glorious
Chess ain't easy like checkers, so you better check tutorials
Beating me in chess would be meritorious
I see euphorias where there's no notorious warriors
Where we play chess to deal with the wars of us
People are rooks, by the way they stay on their path
I'm a nice guy, but I never finish last
And these people being pawns, by the way they being used
They'll sacrifice you, like they got nothing to lose
And y'all be knights, by the way you creating an L
Jumping to conclusions, just to raise up hell
Racists be bishops, by the way they stick to color
How about we all just come together like we brothers
And our egos be kings, by the way we try to protect them
But people try to bring us down, check mate them
Queens are the main piece where attention diverts
Look at the bigger picture, or you'll be in for worse
Allow me address, I'm Jens the Chef, the best at chess
I'll egress from the depths of less, just to possess success
But nonetheless, I'm ten moves ahead from the beginning
You're a beginner if you don't see losing as winning
Cause losing's learning, and learning is earning
Earning the knowledge to improve, and keep on working
Checkered board, checkered things
Checkered shoes, checkered strings
But this ain't checkers, this is chess mate
It don't take much effort, to put your ass in checkmate
If I could educate, it'd be to anticipate the next play
And this includes life, so you better think twice
No regrets, no remorse, you'll be fine, you'll suffice

Life is like chess, one play at a time
You gotta think ahead, and you gotta use your mind
There's pieces in your life, that you gotta protect
Sometimes you gotta sacrifice for other things to take effect

My chess obsession started back in the fifth grade
I bested my teacher, and grew love for the game
Now I'm thinking back to when, I was first taught
My grandpa had shown me, how to lose a lot, haha
Thanks gramps, cause now I'm the teacher
And your the student and you learn, when I beat ya
Mickey Mouse was a move, I still use today
Checkmate ya in three moves, yeah I know the way
Sixth grade, Entheos Academy champion
That trophies held high, and carries my happiness
Chess taught me to use my mind and solve problems
There's a variety of solutions, and I can solve 'em
Back in the day, my dad would school me
But now I kick his ass, and I'm the bully
But this is just chess, so no harms done
You just go perfect your craft, and you have won

Life is like chess, one play at a time
You gotta think ahead, and you gotta use your mind
There's pieces in your life, that you gotta protect
Sometimes you gotta sacrifice for other things to take effect

The top chess players, I give 'em my praise
I raise a glass to the plays that be winning games
A chess board is eight by eight, I ate the game
With the last play I made, you could say I'm placed with greats
Chess made me strategic, adaptive and now I see shit
Like patterns and plots, that be coming to defeat me
I counter and unleash it, the power of my defense
Yeah I see your weakness
I don't need the queen to take the king piece
I know I be geeking
But y'all should really try the game that be keeping me up on my feet, yeah
Year after year I be beating all my relatives, that be trying to sweep me
I'll troll and capture all of your pieces
And even when I could of ending the game, I like to tease ya
It pleases
My mind knowing that I've outwitted and shitted
On the seized piece that be the king leaving ya sleepless, ooh
Who knew chess could be so intense
Oh I know, the one and only, Jens the Chef
Cooking up beats while I place ya king in check
This is the end of my song about chess
Ya dig
