MACM (Make A Chess Move)

Balls and your word, principles you stand on (yeah)
When the drama come, tell me, can you stand strong?
Leap from the perch (whoo), and soar over turbulent winds
Make sound decisions calculating the speed
Keep the game tight, strangle it in your grip
Remember, even the fittest fall prey to this business (uh-huh)
It's best to be the puppeteer pulling the strings
'Cause pawns turn to Queens to protect the King

Been around the world, limelight, I'm exposed (uh-huh)
Any opp presented to has been disposed
High speed, any lane, no end of road (nah)
I'm a juggernaut, smash through any obstacle
The big boss (the big boss) do it big, making giant moves
Crown jewels on my lid, show the valuables
I can show you how to get your bag, never stress
Show you how to break it down, how to make it stretch (stretch)

The cycle starts to spin, money out, money in
Organize minds, make sure that they comprehend (uh-huh)
Source that material, maintain relations (uh-huh)
Never let the left hand know the moves that you're making
Keep your circle small, info on a need to know (need to know)
No stuntin' on the Instagram, no cap to save a ho (no)
Only dumb niggas offer details, broadcasting to retail
Then finding boys circling your people (whoo)

Balls and your word, principles you stand on (yeah)
When the drama come, tell me, can you stand strong?
Leap from the perch (whoo) and soar over turbulent winds
Make sound decisions, calculating the speed
Keep the game tight, strangle it in your grip
Remember, even the fittest fall prey to this business (uh-huh)
It's best to be the puppeteer pulling the strings
'Cause pawns turn to Queens to protect the King

Many lessons to be taught before making power moves (word)
'Cause you can't play the game lest you know the rules (uh-uh)
I know the money and the fame is often the allure
But your balls and your word keep the foundation secure
Tend to your grass, always worry for the snake (yeah)
'Cause most niggas fold in the first 48 (snitch)
Claim to be solid, but in fact, they really ain't
Draw you in, showin' love, then prime your back for the shank (uh)

Ignore it all and be the next to fall
Or maintain your walls and be the next to ball
Formulate your thesis, maintain your pieces
Insulate yourself from prying eyes in the leeches
Keep your mind right, sharpen up your foresight
Prepare for any consequence, double then do it thrice (yes)
When you live by the sword then you reap what you sow
Act like you know, never say it isn't so (say it isn't so)

Balls and your word, principles you stand on (yeah)
When the drama come, tell me, can you stand strong?
Leap from the perch (whoo), and soar over turbulent winds
Make sound decisions, calculating the speed
Keep the game tight, strangle it in your grip
Remember, even the fittest fall prey to this business (uh-huh)
It's best to be the puppeteer pulling the strings
'Cause pawns turn to Queens to protect the King

What's the difference between us?
We can start at the fetus, cut from a different Adidas
Shell toes, Khakis with creases
LA backin' my thesis, never lackin' a reefer
High as a bag of that helium, Snoop Dogg, Wiz Khalifa
I'm a product of my environment
Lock him in these Luke Cages and slap him with the iron fist
Inspired this, and then brought it to a new level

Never put money or trust in a bitch 'til she do better
You knew better, but you still chose the wrong road
And I still spit 316's like I was Stone Cold
Hold on, you can go hard, or you can go home
Get broke like Turbo and lifted in the whole ozone (whoo, whoo)
My nigga go on and pass that
I'm trying to get high as the back of giraffe necks
Aflac, duck when I grab that
I hope y'all remember his face, a closed casket

Balls and your word, principles you stand on (yeah)
When the drama come, tell me, can you stand strong?
Leap from the perch and soar over turbulent winds
Make sound decisions, calculating the speed
Keep the game tight, strangle it in your grip
Remember, even the fittest fall prey to this business (uh-huh)
It's best to be the puppeteer pulling the strings
'Cause pawns turn to Queens to protect the King
'Cause pawns turn to Queens to protect the King
