Queen's Gambit
Nicki Minaj

[Verse 1]
I'm like a pawn, but girl, I ain’t ordinary,
Moving up the board, making moves that are legendary.
With every step, I break the mold, that's the mission,
Checkmate's the goal, call me the queen of ambition.

Got these rooks in shock, like they never saw the king,
While I'm flipping the board, hear the victory ring.
Got my knights on the side, always ready to ride,
In this game of chess, I’m the one with the pride.

Bishops watch out, they’re diagonally flawed,
I'm the queen, baby, and I’m never ignored.
I'm stacking my moves, like it’s Monopoly night,
While they roll just doubles, I’m the one taking flight.

Pop and lock it like it's my name in the bright lights,
With bars so tight, I grip the mic, take flight.
Like the perfect game of chess, I calculate each piece,
In this lyrical duel, I’m the queen to say the least.

[Chorus]
Queens don’t falter, we never lose our seat,
In this game of life, we’re serving up the heat.
With a sip of confidence, our power can’t be blunt,
Playing chess with fate, girl, we’re the perfect front.

[Verse 2]
Contenders feel the pressure, like it's crunch time on the clock,
But I’m flipping every script; girl, I’m writing the whole doc.
While they try to check me, I’m checkin’ their attitude,
Just call me your majesty in this lyrical feud.

I break all the rules, every move, it’s a scandal,
Like a low blow, baby, I’m a firebrand handle.
Got my sights set high, y’all can call it elevation,
I’m the queen of this board, check my domination.

With every metaphor, I’m stepping on the gas,
Got that double entendré, you feel the sass?
Life’s a game of chess, and I’m the CEO,
Stacking up my wins, while they err on the low.

Like Netflix, I’m binge-worthy, plot twists on each line,
With puns sharper than daggers, every punch is divine.
Haters wanna check me, but they don’t even know,
In this chess game of life, I’m the reigning pro.

[Bridge]
So if you wanna step, bring your queen to the fight,
But better take a seat, ‘cause I'm lightning, they’re slight.
I’m moving my pieces, just call it my way,
While the rest fall apart, I’m here to slay.

[Outro]
With my crown on my head, I’m the queen of this match,
In this Queen's Gambit game, I ain't meetin’ no catch.
Checkmate, darling, let’s toast to the grind,
With a pun and a wink, I leave all doubts behind.
