checkmate

(album: Deadlock - 2023)

[Romanized:]

People say
"Life is like a game, life is like a game"
Bokjapan gyuchik wie seo isseo
When they said
"One, two, three and next, one, two, three and next"
Ja geimeun sijakdwaesseo
When we go, sun is down
Cheoncheonhi heundeullyeo, muneojyeo fall down
But we go, for the win
Jeoldae pogi mot hae
Are you done?
Ijebuteo

Kkokkkok sumeora i geimeun jigeumbuteonikka
Kkokkkok sumgyeora i gihoel nochimyeon it's on and on
This is now game over

Checkmate
Han kan joyeo wado
Beoseonal su isseul geora mideodo you don't
Ijeneun jeonse yeokjeon
I can see your face
Dwijipineun race
Idaeum teoneun naega umjingnyeo my game
Geurae nan
I saw the way to win this game
It's another checkmate

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
It's another checkmate
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
It's another checkmate

I lost everything
But I'm gonna win this thing
I geimeun eonjedeun dwibakkwiji
Let me see your mind
Just go and take your time
Eopseo gidaril pillyodo
I can't see it's game over

Kkokkkok sumeora i geimeun jigeumbuteonikka
Kkokkkok sumgyeora i gihoel nochimyeon it's on and on
This is now game over

Checkmate

People say
"Life is like a game, life is like a game"
복잡한 규칙 위에 서 있어
When they said
"One, two, three and next, one, two, three and next"
자 게임은 시작됐어
When we go, sun is down
천천히 흔들려, 무너져 fall down
But we go, for the win
절대 포기 못 해
Are you done?
이제부터

꼭꼭 숨어라 이 게임은 지금부터니까
꼭꼭 숨겨라 이 기횔 놓치면 it's on and on
This is now game over

Checkmate
한 칸 조여 와도
벗어날 수 있을 거라 믿어도 you don't
이제는 전세 역전
I can see your face
뒤집히는 race
이다음 턴은 내가 움직여 my game
그래 난
I saw the way to win this game
It's another checkmate

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
It's another checkmate
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
It's another checkmate

I lost everything
But I'm gonna win this thing
이 게임은 언제든 뒤바뀌지
Let me see your mind
Just go and take your time
없어 기다릴 필요도
I can't see it's game over

꼭꼭 숨어라 이 게임은 지금부터니까
꼭꼭 숨겨라 이 기횔 놓치면 it's on and on
This is now game over

Checkmate
한 칸 조여 와도
벗어날 수 있을 거라 믿어도
You don't
이제는 전세 역전
I can see your face
뒤집히는 race
이다음 턴은 내가 움직여 my game
그래 난
I saw the way to win this game
It's another checkmate

When you think the game is done
아직 끝이 아냐
I'll make the end
그 끝은 내가 결정해

Checkmate
한 칸 조여 와도
벗어날 수 있을 거라 믿어도
You don't
이제는 전세 역전
I can see your face
뒤집히는 race
이다음 턴은 내가 움직여 my game
그래 난
I saw the way to win this game
It's another checkmate

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
It's another checkmate
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
It's another checkmate
