jabee - checmate lyrics
[intro: lil b]
it’s lil b
statik selektah, i see you
shout out okc
it’s lil b
i know that based god is not fair
what i’m doing (yeah)
[verse 1: jabee]
yeah, yeah young, dumb, and dangerous
all my dead homies call it angel spit
i’m trying to fight the power like i’m chuck d
i put that on my momma you can trust me
a full course meal is just bread and wine
break bread with my homies [?] design
you can’t shake hands with a clenched fist
family’s like a million bucks when you homeless
i ain’t trying to die until i really live
some people had to die so i could really live
you say you real so you feel this?
you only real to who you real with
fake n+ggas always bragging ’bout they realness
saying grace with the devil on their plate, yeah
probably kissing judas in the face
some homies lift you up, some try to kick you in your place
[chorus: lil b]
i’m staying focused on the background
i gotta look behind my back, i’m moving back now
i gotta go back in town
n+ggas say i’m moving forward, but i’m back down (right, right)
pain of life is the pains of life
i’m moving forward, i’m just moving right
said “f+ck it”, i ain’t gonna go left
i’m moving straight, checkmate
[verse 2: slug]
i’m trying to stay as positive as possible
sometimes you feel like you’re running out of options though
i made a promise to that b+tch in the mirror
now i ill+strate my picture just a little bit clearer
as a kid, i didn’t have it
but if you offer me the opportunity to grab it, i wanted it
not so i can flaunt it, just so i can hide it in my bas+m+nt
and take it out occasionally, appreciate it
as a grown ass man, now i know that’s a scam
look at all these records, i could have collected land
trying to give my family a handful of sand
but we were busy making memories instead of plans
and it kinda seems as if we built a lot from a little
put all of those ingredients on top of the griddle
let me simmer down and focus on the sound
of the city bus pushing through the snow that’s on the ground
[chorus: lil b]
i’m staying focused on the background
i gotta look behind my back, i’m moving back now
i gotta go back in town
n+ggas say i’m moving forward, but i’m back down (right, right)
pain of life is the pains of life
i’m moving forward, i’m just moving right
said “f+ck it”, i ain’t gonna go left
i’m moving straight, checkmate
[outro: lil b]
said “f+ck it”, i ain’t gonna go left
i’m moving straight
auto pilot when i move in check
checkmate, we ain’t playing chess
it’s lil b
