Jackboy - Chess Not Checkers lyrics

Bordeaux and Non Native

I'd rather be solo than surrounded by snakes
(Surrounded by snakes)
I don't compete, nah, I'm in my own race
(I'm in my own race)
New AP, diamonds bussin' out the face
(Bussin' out the face)
Skinny ass nigga, but his pockets overweight
(Pockets overweight)
Lil' ass nigga with a big ass gun
(With a big ass gun)
Ridin' in the double R, feelin' like a don
(Feelin' like a don)
Chess not checkers, you niggas be pawns
(You niggas be pawns)
One false move, that boy gone, better run
(Better run)

Niggas be ducks
Y'all steady gettin' plucked
(Steady gettin' plucked)
I'm a big dog, can't treat me like a pup
(Treat me like a pup)
I'm a rich nigga, put Dior on my poodle
(Dior on my poodle)
Feeding her steak while you
Steady eating noodles
(While you steady eating noodles)
Despite all the hate shit life been great
(Life been great)
I gave my bitch cake, told her
"Go celebrate"
(Go celebrate)
All of these racks, throw a party in favor
(Throw a party in favor)
Fly lil' nigga, I'll never be dingy
I came from the bottom
Had to climb out the sewer
(Climb to the top)
Duckin' the cops
Had to learn how to maneuver
(Dodgin' the cops)
Hopped in the streets
Had to learn how to be a shooter
(Had to learn how to be a shooter)
Hopped on a jet, came out feelin' newer
(Came out feelin' newer)
Stay busy, so I ain't gotta never feel shit
(Never feel shit)
No time to cry, lil' nigga, you lit
(Lil' nigga, you lit)
Lil' nigga, you rich
You can do what they can't
(Do what they can't)
Run their ass up, now he in and out the bank
(Now he in and out the bank)

I'd rather be solo than surrounded by snakes
(Surrounded by snakes)
I don't compete, nah, I'm in my own race
(I'm in my own race)
New AP, diamonds bussin' out the face
(Bussin' out the face)
Skinny ass nigga, but his pockets overweight
(Pockets overweight)
Lil' ass nigga with a big ass gun
(With a big ass gun)
Ridin' in the double R, feelin' like a don
(Feelin' like a don)
Chess not checkers, you niggas be pawns
(You niggas be pawns)
One false move, that boy gone, better run
(Gone, better run)

You don't see my unless I wanna be seen
(Unless I wanna be seen)
Ain't got no time if it
Ain't about the green
(If it ain't about the green)
Living in the dream, so my lifestyle amazing
(Lifestyle amazing)
Lil' niggas hating
But that shit don't phase me
(That shit don't phase me)
Fuck bein' sad, bitch, I got shit to do
(I got shit to do)
Fuck makin' friends
I'ma go and make the loot
(Go make the loot)
Might buy a new coop, I'm havin'
Not braggin'
(I'm havin', not braggin')
Walked in the lot
Glock got my pants saggin'
(Got my pants saggin')

I'd rather be solo than surrounded by snakes
(Surrounded by snakes)
I don't compete, nah, I'm in my own race
(I'm in my own race)
New AP, diamonds bussin' out the face
(Bussin' out the face)
Skinny ass nigga, but his pockets overweight
(Pockets overweight)
Lil' ass nigga with a big ass gun
(With a big ass gun)
Ridin' in the double R, feelin' like a don
(Feelin' like a don)
Chess not checkers, you niggas be pawns
(You niggas be pawns)
One false move, that boy gone, better run
(Gone, better run)
