7ohkev’o – checkmate lyrics

[intro]
yeah
i love you daddy
longevity
i love you daddy
gotta look ahead

[chorus]
when trouble’s comin’ at you both ways
life look at you like checkmate
ya next move determines yo’ fate
careful ’bout the move that you make
checkmate
do you got a plan for mayday?
can you call a play just in case?
couple protocols i gotta’ take
do you got somethin’ safe when it ain’t safe?
checkmate
checkmate
checkmate
checkmate
checkmate

[verse 1]
thangs hardly stay the same if it do then it’s luck
gotta change with the times mastermind and adjust
can you antic-p-te and navigate in the clutch
that’s why i gotta couple plays lurkin’ in the cut
got a rook in the corner straight away if i say
every “l” is a gain i got horses on the way
everything changed when i had my son
now i look ahead gotta set him up
got a big fear of dying young and he won’t know me and he where he’s from
so i copped a book and i write in that
and i talk to him right/write through my pen
just to leave some game
a piece of my brain
just in case i never make it home one day
just in case i never wake up one day
just in case i die too young one day
ima leave my money, ima leave my brain
just in case checkmate checkmate checkmate

[verse 2]
cause one mornin’ we woke up and sh@#t really came close
all because a window
that we never open before
was open all night long
with the window screen on the floor
thanks to god and luck
that window got stuck and them foo’s gave up
way before that
never had a strap
never needed that
but ever since then, i don’t wanna sin for self defense
but i got to, i got a 2 year old i can’t play coo’
like slimmy b from the v said, f@#k around and i’ll paint you
i’ll paint you into an angel
on the ceilin’ like michael angel…o
that’s the sistine chapel
home invasion is like a raffle
cause you must be sick in the head
a fiend for the bread
if it means there’s a chance you end up dead
all because you can’t get your own bread
get it through your head
quick come ups don’t last long
next thing you know, you back on
you gon’ run up in the wrong home
and might not even make it back home

[skit]
dear skyvin
i write in this book so that
you have a piece of me, with you
for eternity

[outro]
this book will live forever
once i’m gone then everything in my brain is gone
but if i leave my brain in this book
then it’s like i’m still here
