Jumped and thumped
Bumped and dumped
Across this board called life
Why must I fight
A game I don’t want to play
Anyway
But here I am today
With dreams to be king
Isn’t that the thing
A dream to win
I do but sin
And am made false
At such cost
Waiting for that final loss
Checked again and again
Where do I begin
To leave such a predicament
Confidence?
When I am surrounded
Astounded
Yet bounded
To head to the other side
Try and survive
This board
A want to be more
Than a drama queen
A king
I want to be…
Oh checkmate
I am far too late
Because of what is true
And what I was made into
That’s my ass
At last
My future is my Checkered Past
