We´re all just the pieces on the checkerboard

Binding your eyes 
Binding your hands 
They put you on the checkerboard
Play your part
Till you aren't ruled out don't ask
What's at stake 

We are just the pieces 
Undefended like you 
No one can change it
There's nothing to do 

You humbly wait 
Till someone up 
Moves you to another Square
