Fate and Its Game

Fate kicks routine in the shin
Yet time plays a game which fate can never win
Why can't it be seen?
It suffered with the pawn
Side by side fighting this silent war
That no one wants to hear of
They call it an excuse, a way to back out
But no, it fights the war for them
It fights the endless battles
Which they don't see it always wins
For the kings still live in luxury
In the end, it loses to time, its ironic friend
