I am the king

My people, they will keep me breathing

Even if its their life they're sacrificing

But I ask, why should I remain living?

If I can't protect the ones I am ruling?

I am the queen

My king, to protect you I am keen

If I can't, it would be my demean

My life and death, protecting you is what comes in between

Keeping you alive is what my life would mean

I am a bishop

My king, to protect you I will not stop

Even my life I am willing to drop

It is my duty to keep you atop

I will support you non-stop

I am a knight

My king, to protect you I will fight

I will guard you day or night

The enemies I will give a fright

My life I will give, to make sure you are alright

I am a rook

My king, to protect you I already betook

For the enemies I will be an outlook

Before me, the enemies will be a schnook

I will keep you safe even if my life is just by the hook

I am a pawn

My king, to protect you I have never withdrawn

I will fight as long as I see dawn

With all my might I will fight until the enemies are gone

Continue to fight even if death has been bestowed upon

I am the king

My people, I will make sure your lives are not a wasting

As long as my heart is beating

I will continue ruling

And win this war for peace and your honoring
