Take a head start or one step at a time

I certainly wouldn't be left behind

To protect you with my life is the best I've done

I vow to be you pawn


With unpredictable route I take the lead

An indecisive move indeed

I may be for better or for worse

Be careful where you move the horse


In the corners I wait for you to call

To protect the king or make the foe fall

I'll devour whoever is in the way

Surely the rook will make them pay


Without a doubt, I support the team

I'm not as weak as I seem

If you're not alert, you'll be surprise where I pop

That's the mind play of the bishop


In the game I'm the most powerful

Whatever is the task, I'm the most capable

I'm not the most important, though I should have been

Bow to the presence of the Queen


I'm grateful to the folks who risk their lives

To protect the royalties like I

But I have no choice but to escape in shame

Because if I, the King, am captured you'll lose the game
