Life Is A Game Of Chess Lyrics

The anomaly of a paradox in a paradigm shift

From pawn to being king of this parables shit

Story of rags to riches no love for bitches and undermined by snitches

Started burning all my bridges niggas all up in my business

Lord be my witness as I pray for forgiveness

Why momma riddle with sickness

Why there's no present for Christmas

Why uncle stuck in that prison

Is it cause of their decisions

Why I have to load this ammunition and shoot the opposition

For recognition to get love from a gang that my father wasn't given

It's it my fault that I was poisoned by the system dark twisted and sadistic

This just the life that I was given

Is there any chance for repentance

Cause every saint got a past and every sinner has a future

So open up the pearly gates when I preach hallelujah

Life is a game of chess

Life life like

Life like a game of chess

Life like a game of chess

Life life like

Life like a game of chess

As a recite, I'm on a different height

Remember cold nights with no lights

Ain't nobody see my sight

So I had to roll the dice

Life took a left then a right

It's don't suffice

That people see the potential in the shit that I write

They need to know I'm at the highest height

My bars stack higher than a fucking kite

Overnight my parasite of appetite comes to light

As a grab, my pen and I write at the speed of light

Battle scars you earn through trials and tribulations

Of a black man stuck between heaven or hell or stuck in a cell

My motivation and dedication can carry a nation you can tell in my cadence

Better yet you'll see it when I'm famous

Momma said Greg your gonna make it

I had faith in her statement

I made it from the pavement

While writing raps in the basement

Heart so vacant I felt I gave it to Satan

I'm not complacent with displacement and enslavement

To entertainment while my people are incarcerated and exterminated

A statement that is often understated

Life is a game of chess

Life life like

Life like a game of chess

Life like a game of chess

Life life like

Life like a game of chess

Life is a game of chess

Life life like

Life like a game of chess

Life like a game of chess

Life life like

Life like a game of chess
