Chess Lyrics by IGB

2025

It's IGB

When they're saying no I tell myself yes
As long as I put in the work I'll make progress
I look unto God cause I know I'm blessed
And I gotta make the right moves when I play chess (play chess)

I aim for the apex
Moving quick as i go with some reflex
I make it look easy when it's complex
Apologies I mean I didn't come to flex
But I always mean to come first
Gotta be intentional gotta put in my best
When they ask me what next?
I tell them I'll keep on moving
Never complacent, winning the contest
Social media clipping things out of context
Better be careful before they get you next
Cancel culture is becoming so ruthless
Can't work sos hard to turn to something else

It's operation avoid Ls
Focus on carrying those dumbells
And anytime they tell me no, I'll stand up
Head up and I'll tell myself yes

When they're saying no I tell myself yes
As long as I put in the work I'll make progress
I look unto God cause I know I'm blessed
And I gotta make the right moves when I play chess (play chess)

Got the confidence anytime I step in the booth
Bars so cool that ain't far from the truth
Process my moves and then I reboot
If I miss my aim then I gotta reshoot
Spell superstar like it is kahoot
S u p e r s t a r that's who i am
I put in the work, I be going ham bam

Anyway I digress
This song is all about chess
But so many things we must address
The file is too large we must compress
Look I ain't got no time for nonsense
I'm just tryna mind my own business
Focus on work and the fitness
As I focus on love and the kindness

When they're saying no I tell myself yes
As long as I put in the work I'll make progress
I look unto God cause I know I'm blessed
And I gotta make the right moves when I play chess
(play chess, play chess, play chess, play chess)
