Checkmate by The Wordshipper Lyrics
[Hook]
I don't know what Ima do
I don’t know where I can give
I don't know what I can do
I don't know where Ima live
Where am I goin’ on this journey?
Where am I even gonna live?
In a street in a box doing what I love, or in a mansion hating everything I give?
[Verse One]
What the fuck can I say, lately I've been feeling lost
What more can I give that hasn't been lost?
They ask where I live and I tell em' writers block
And they holding emotions in, by the devils claw
Yeah I'm back but it feels like I never left
Only when I fucking die, will I receive respect
Shout out to the few people that actually relate to what I try to do
Cause deep down I only do that shit for me and you
It's been hectic lately in my mind, tryna find what to write
But here I am once again with the fast flows and rhymes
That's what they said they wanted from me
But my lyrics are deeper than a tornado shelter, B
I don't play no games like Jigsaw
But put the pieces together and you get me, nah
I’m just tryna make a difference like seven minus seven
Strictly sent from Heaven
I’m pessimistic to the rest of this shit, it's kind of a blessin’
If you really look into it like bifocal
You can see the bigger picture like an oracle
And no matter how much money I can come across
That shit will never distract me, from where I came from
[Hook]
I don't know what Ima do
I don't know where I can give
I don't know what I can do
I don’t know where Ima live
Where am I goin' on this journey?
Where am I even gonna live?
In a street in a box doing what I love, or in a mansion hating everything I give?
[Bridge]
Checkmate
Look at what I formulate
Head of state, never gonna hesitate
It's all lies take a look at what they fabricate
It's all lies take a look at what they advocate
Checkmate
Look at what I formulate
Head of state, never gonna hesitate
It's all lies take a look at what they fabricate
It's all lies take a look at what they advocate
[Verse Two]
See I was down here, while the rest was up high
Now I'm finally getting bread, tryna reach for he sky
Yeah I see through my third eye
Work through the tongue tie
Kill shit day to day, while they always stay fake
They ask how I do it, gotta let them know it's cake
Rappers always brag, but they ain't getting cake
I'm the main course and the dessert plate
They ask why I do it, I reply not the fame
Ain't about the money but the way it's obtained
It's about the skill, and how good I entertain
All about the way that I market my campaign
Finna-Finna blow up like I'm made of propane
They ask how I got it like this, wanna be like this, but they ain't like me one bit
They ask how I got it like this, wanna be like this, but they ain't like me one bit
[Outro]
I don't know what Ima do
I don't know where I can give
I don't know what I can do
I don't know where Ima live
Checkmate
Look at what I formulate
Head of state, never gonna hesitate
It's all lies take a look at what they fabricate
It's all lies take a look at what they advocate
Checkmate
Look at what I formulate
Head of state, never gonna hesitate
It's all lies take a look at what they fabricate
It's all lies take a look at what they advocate

I don't know what I can do
I don't know where Ima live
Where am I goin’ on this journey?
Where am I even gonna live?
