棋子 [Qí zǐ] [English translation]

I wanna escape from the realm under your control but lapse into your battle formation

Neither I`m strong on defense, nor I can make a retreat

I wanna escape the trap laid by you, but find myself in another tight corner

Neither I dare to determine whether I win or lose, nor I`m lucky enough to escape

I`m just like a chess piece, you decide my advance and retreat

I`m not the only commander in your eyes, but a common soldier

I`m just like a chess piece, can`t decide my own movement

There is no way back and you`re never hesitated

Yet I`m in your hands
