piece of the pie

Charlotte Griffiths - piece of the pie 

everyone's still arguing their 

opinion and making 

plan to attack and 

i'm just smoking a cigarette

with the local 

drunk 

on a coffee break i've

overstayed and 

i'm speaking my 

honest truth. 

there's not a lot 

to people, really,

just a desire to be 

heard, 

respected and 

i get that; 

i respect and 

i hear and 

people listen 

if you do the same 

for them 

(most of the time)

and those some 

times are 

worth it. 

people have a lot 

more to show than they 

pretend. they don't really 

need as much as 

they want. 

i want people 

to stop freaking out about 

each other. 

i need people to love 

each other and 

we need people to love 

each other. 

we all agree on that, 

don't we?

down at the 

core

we need something 

real and 

we're all chasing 

it, aren't 

we? we all 

want a piece 

of that pie

for sure

(i'll take mine

with a cup of 

coffee and a fresh

rolled drag, 

thank 

you).
