- By request (five weeks late), here's the funky one.
If you're looking for any of the other songs, I highly recommend fellow music RWBYtuber, FlyntofRWBY.
The RWBY Volume 9 soundtrack is now available for streaming and purchase.

This song gets really dark when you realize the lyrics are Ruby questioning herself and how much loss her decisions have caused, and whether the fighting was worth it.
Tbh, any given time a song is from Ruby's PoV, the lyrics are on the dark and depressing end of the spectrum.
It's actually all the girls perspective, not just Ruby's
Red Prince: I WON! Give up, already!
Ruby: (inhales through clenched teeth) We. Won't. Kick their wooden BUTTS!
This is literally just WBY's willpower that they've amassed over the two years that they've been fighting Salem and her forces, and it feels like they're finally getting a chance to just let loose all the skills they've obtained, setting Ruby as (mostly) the main focus aside, saying "hey, you're in a daze, i can't complain, so look at what i can do now"
Until you get to:
"Are you the queen,
Or are you the pawn?
Will you master the night,
Or wait for the dawn?
Is it worth all the blood,
And the damage done?
Would you die under the spotlight
Just to hear all the applause?"
Which is definitely Ruby's point of view.
Whenever I listen to this song, I often feel the need to break out into a spontaneous dance.
Someone call Flynt and Neon cause this is FNKI!
XD
PFFFFHAH!!!! Nice one. XD
I know the saxophone throughout is so damn FUNKY
I had this on loop while sleeping and now I can sing the whole song
You have my appreciation for being the first to upload the lyrics to this banger. I've been looking for them ever since I heard the song, and then got distracted by a game. So my thanks for having posted it by the time I remembered.
Thank you for this, checkmate is one of my favorites from this volume
A perfect addition, i was learning the lyrics by listening to it again and again, much easier now !
Finally, one with the official lyrics
Thank you for updating Checkmate with lyrics ❤😊

Weiss, Blake, and Yang vs Red and White chess piece armies !!

Ngl checkmate is the only rwby song I always wanna dance to whenever it comes on
The only one? For me it's Checkmate, Neon, and Celebrate.

I don't care what anyone says, this is a freezerburn song
Chess usually involves black and white spaces, so it definitely fits for all three of them.
Someone write sheet music pleaaaseee

This could work as a Peaky P-key song.

Wow❤ but what about volume 10? Is out?
Oh babe no,,,, roosterteeth got shut down we dont know whats happening with volume 10
@@lamb6042 of course; everything i like suddenly stop…
There is still a chance it'll come back so don't lose all hope because they are looking for another ip (I actually think they may have found someone at this point but they haven't really said) to continue it@@danielamosti1069
Do not worry. RWBY was bought by Viz Media. They haven't said anything about volume 10, but at least there's a light at the end of the tunnel. And Kerry Shawcross, one of the writers, is also joining in.
@@julianagegenheimer YEAAAA IM SO GLAD ITS WITH VIZ!!! Or at least with an anime friendly site :D ive gotten like 2 emails about it too like YAY!
Apple Music and Spotify absolutely nuked the Rwby soundtracks
