Lyrics of Checkmate (Smooth) by Offset
[Verse 1]
Straight out the Nawf (Straight out the Nawf)
I’m having the sauce (I’m having the sauce)
The vault in the loft (The vault)
Pop out in New York
Got chrome on the crosses, ain’t taking no loss (One hundred)
They lied, I’m really the boss (They lied)
Two times, I filled up my opps (Two times)
Fu*k, three times, I hear the exhaust
Put a b!tch out on the curb
Two hundred large in a black Goyard (Two hundred)
They pay me to chop up the word
I hit your crush and curved her (Crush)
I put the crushed ice in the peach Crush with the syrup
Ayy, these n!ggas be hoes, they nervous, ayy
She popped a Perc’, it’s working, ayy
New b!tch ain’t just bad, she perfect
Run up the racks and tightened my circle
[Chorus]
Check
Ten million in blues, check (Check)
Five racks on the shoes, check (Check)
Hit the Met with your boo
Fashion week killer, end up on the news, check (The Met)
I get dressed on the moon, check (The moon)
I want that, okay, cool, check (Okay, cool)
Flew your b!tch to Tulum
I flood her out in the pool
Smooth (Check)
Ten million in blues, check (Check)
Five racks on the shoes, check (Check)
Hit the Met with your boo
Fashion week killer, end up on the news, check (Woo, check)
I get dressed on the moon, check (The moon)
I want that, okay, cool, check (Okay, cool)
Flew your b!tch to Tulum
I flood her out in the pool
Smooth
[Verse 2]
N!gga hating on me, I’ma fu*k his b!tch (Hating)
Coming with a diss, but he ain’t on s*it (S*it)
Cut his lights off when I hit this switch
What the price cost? I’ma ’bout to hit this lick (Hey)
What the hype ’bout? N!ggas fall off quick (Fall off)
Off the top rope like Raw, like Vince (Raw)
Talking dog s*it when your dog got spingt (Spingt)
Elliante, you can see it through the tint (Hey)
I started this s*it, watching my grind, n!ggas bought all my fits (They was watching)
Hold up my britches, she fu*k on my wrist
Sick of this ho, it’s like yuck with that b!tch (Eugh)
Balling like I signed with clutch with these riches (Clutch)
Kobe, I’m coming in clutch with these hits (Clutch)
Residence, I’m going pent’ in the Ritz (Pent)
M on a car, it ain’t making no sense (Sense)
Pop out, bad b!tch coming through, she do top out (Pop out)
Fu*k school and your rules, n!ggas dropped out (Dropped out)
Playing tic-tac-toe, it’s a opp out (Opp)
And my shooter like a janitor, the mop out (Mop)
Was sleeping on the floor in the trap house (Hey)
Now we’re trapping ’round the globe, I’m a cash cow (Cash)
She a muse, walking ’round with her ass out (Muse)
I ain’t trying to talk, n!gga, put the cash out
[Chorus]
Check
Ten million in blues, check (Check)
Five racks on the shoes, check (Check)
Hit the Met with your boo
Fashion week killer, end up on the news, check (The Met)
I get dressed on the moon, check (The moon)
I want that, okay, cool, check (Okay, cool)
Flew your b!tch to Tulum (Tulum)
I flood her out in the pool
Smooth (Check)
Ten million in blues, check (Check)
Five racks on the shoes, check (Check)
Hit the Met with your boo
Fashion week killer, end up on the news, check (Woo, check)
I get dressed on the moon, check (The moon)
I want that, okay, cool, check (Okay, cool)
Flew your b!tch to Tulum
I flood her out in the pool

Meaning of Checkmate (Smooth) Lyrics
Verse 1 Meaning:
Offset starts by talking about where he comes from, the “Nawf,” and how he’s now living a flashy, successful life. He’s confident, saying he’s “having the sauce,” which is about style, confidence, and influence. He mentions his loft with a vault, showing he’s made it financially. Moving through New York, he mixes symbols of faith and fashion with his chrome crosses. He makes it clear he’s the real boss and has handled his rivals multiple times. Offset talks about spending big, putting women in certain situations, and casually hinting at his past dealings in the streets. He also talks about moving on from relationships, enjoying luxury drinks, and noticing how others get nervous around him. A new woman comes into his life, she’s perfect in his eyes, and he keeps building his wealth while keeping his circle small and loyal.
Chorus Meaning:
The chorus is Offset listing all the high-end, impressive things in his life. He talks about having millions in cash, wearing expensive shoes, and showing up at big events like the Met Gala. He brags about his style, saying he dresses “on the moon,” which exaggerates his fashion sense. He’s confident in getting whatever he wants and takes someone else’s woman on a luxurious trip to Tulum. He also talks about spoiling her, maybe with money or gifts, showing his ability to live smoothly and effortlessly. The word “smooth” sums up the vibe of his life—carefree, rich, stylish, and on top of everything.
Verse 2 Meaning:
Offset switches gears to deal with haters and rivals. He says if someone is hating, he’ll take their woman and points out that many people talk but aren’t really serious. He mentions “cutting the lights off,” which shows taking control or overshadowing others. He questions what’s worth the hype, always looking for opportunities to win. Offset compares himself to a wrestler, meaning he’s strategic and impactful in his moves. He talks about people talking badly while others are down, showing he notices fake energy. Luxury is everywhere in his life, from jewelry to cars. He reflects on how he started trends, and now others copy him. He remembers struggling, sleeping on the floor in a trap house, but now he’s successful worldwide, calling himself a “cash cow.” Women inspire him, and he focuses on money over small talk, showing his drive and priorities.
Chorus Meaning:
The chorus repeats Offset showing off his wealth and lifestyle. He mentions millions in cash, designer shoes, and attending big events with someone else’s partner.

Everything is effortless for him, smooth, and confident, showing that he’s living life on his own terms, enjoying success, and staying ahead of everyone else.
