Blue Medusa, Alissa White-Gluz - Checkmate

I learned my name underneath the spotlights Lost my voice building a throne You thought that silence could not testify Heard echoes I didn't own Fake smiles scaffold heavy lies Take the abuse and bleed clockwise No leash, no more restraint I choose what's real, I choose my name I, I walked the chessboard blind Delusion is the refuge of cowards Black and white, stay in line You forgot the queen holds the most power Take aim stratеgy Watch it fall apart The masks slip and the mirrors break Injury turnеd sovereignty I won't bleed to belong 'cause I I declare checkmate, I own the board None of your pawns can conquer my world I thrive in truth while you lose control I learned my worth when I stood alone I'm not your product, I'm not an object Wounds close and scars do fade Turn empty eyes inwards, see what you became Listen, every slammed door sounds the same Zwischenzug, end game They already know my name Take aim strategy Watch it fall apart The masks slip and the mirrors break Injury turned sovereignty I won't bleed to belong 'cause I I declare checkmate, I own the board None of your pawns can conquer my world I thrive in truth while you lose control I learned my worth when I stood alone I matter in rooms where nothing's sold The story gets cold When I declare checkmate, I own my board My own pawns will ever conquer my world I thrive in truth while you lose control I learned my worth when I stood alone
