[Zee Zamani Ngidi - Queen's Gambit Interlude lyrics]
In chess there are 32 pieces on the board, of
Which are separated by the
Colors black and white
Each denoting the 2 separate sides and
Or players, therefore leaving 16 pieces a
Side these 16 pieces
Are comprised of 1 King, 1 Queen, 2 Rooks, 2
Bishops, 2 Knights and 8 pawns
Each piece is allocated
With a value, and a set of capabilities now
The purpose of the game is to capture or
Rather checkmate the oppositions King while
Protecting your own thus making
The king the most important
Piece in the game, however the King is the
Second weakest piece on the board
Only after the pawn, which is
Rightfully the lowest rated piece on
The board the Queen however
Is the most powerful piece in
The game and by default
Making it the second most important
Piece in the game
Now, I have been playing chess since I
Was 4 years old and have
Unfortunately only learnt the subtext of the
Game, in life, through experience, the
Lesson is quite simple in
Both chess and life, by all means the
King is very important but without his
Queen, he is rendered weak
With his chances of success made not
Only extremely difficult but also unlikely
To the all the Queens out there
That are in our lives, thank you
Which are separated by the
Colors black and white
Each denoting the 2 separate sides and
Or players, therefore leaving 16 pieces a
Side these 16 pieces
Are comprised of 1 King, 1 Queen, 2 Rooks, 2
Bishops, 2 Knights and 8 pawns
Each piece is allocated
With a value, and a set of capabilities now
The purpose of the game is to capture or
Rather checkmate the oppositions King while
Protecting your own thus making
The king the most important
Piece in the game, however the King is the
Second weakest piece on the board
Only after the pawn, which is
Rightfully the lowest rated piece on
The board the Queen however
Is the most powerful piece in
The game and by default
Making it the second most important
