Testo Checkmate - The Wahala Collective
Testo della canzone Checkmate (The Wahala Collective), tratta dall'album Wahala Hustle. Wahala Love.
You start the night with
Stage five tears and prayer
Acting like I'm the one who put you there
Praying to God to break the hold I've got
While you're spinning through the parking lot
You mention the vanilla
The fifty-year-old stray
Hoping I'll get jealous
Hoping I'll say stay
But I don't fight for space in a crowded room
I'm not the one who's chasing doom
You say it's not designed to attract
Yeah, say it again
But you're lighting fires just to watch the men
You asked for the truth
You opened the gate
But honesty's heavy
When it's served on a plate
I can see it happening
Happening, happening
I see the reality you're trapping in
Trapping in
I won't play the fool
No I won't play the part
Of the guy who stays blind
Just to keep hold of your heart
Honesty goes both ways
Yeah it cuts like a knife
I see it happening
I see through the life
Let's keep it one hundred
Let's cut through the haze
I see the rotation
I see how you play
You had the guy fly from NYC
Yeah he came through
You had the Indian guy
And the others too
You act like you're lonely
You act like you're bored
But I see the roster you've secretly stored
You hit me with
Oh wow, like you're innocent now
That's just your opinion
Is that what you allow
I can see it happening
Happening, happening
I see the reality you're trapping in
Trapping in
I won't play the fool
No I won't play the part
Of the guy who stays blind
Just to keep hold of your heart
Honesty goes both ways
Yeah it cuts like a knife
I see it happening
Then you drop the logic
The logic of a child
Saying I don't ask them out
Trying to act mild
It's a Red Herring, baby
And it smells like a lie
You know men are hunters
You know we're the spy
You don't have to ask
When you're hanging the bait
You just sit back
And let them walk through the gate
Profile pic, cleavage, posing by the pool
Posing on the car hood
Don't take me for a fool
You're actively engaging
Yeah that's the phrase
While you pretend you're lost in a innocent maze
I'm not gonna argue the biology of lust
You know what you're doing
You're breaking the trust
How am I engaging
Don't ask me that
I'm not going back and forth on this chat
If that's what you say
Then we'll leave it at that
Yeah, we'll leave it at that
I can see it happening
Happening, happening
I see the reality you're trapping in
Trapping in
I won't play the fool
No I won't play the part
Of the guy who stays blind
Just to keep hold of your heart
Honesty goes both ways
Yeah it cuts like a knife
I see it happening
I see through the life
