I'm sick of being a pawn
In this chess game of life.
The one who gets sacrificed
Like I haven't got any worth.
Pushed off the board of life
By those selfish and eager to win.
Shoved to the side
Knocked over once used.
I'n not that pawn anymore,
I'm turning into a Queen
And they hate it, for,
No matter what moved they make
I'm going to win, checkmate!
