Analysis of Have you been watching
Have you been watching?
Did you hear?
The game of chess has 7 moves or less.
The queen has fallen.
You are no longer a pawn.
The KING has saved.
It is a time for war.
The spirit and the natural merge.
The army is marching.
Steel is clashing.
Gurd up my children.
Put on my armor.
This is my fight.
I am moving dark to light.
