A Slice of Humble Pie

Eating cake had become my mainstay.... the fluffiness of success and the sweet frosting of victory Oh, that sweet, sweet life of mine... just eating and forgetting the bitter limes Binging on triple and quadruple layers.... no signs of stopping and no cares Opulent chins and fat rolls building up.... lethargy and amnesia becoming my death cup The vegetables and greens of hard work and dedication I forgot.... foolishly, these core essentials I left out to rot But that sweet taste quickly became bitter with jeers I can't deny.... 'cause last night I was served a nice big slice of 'humble pie So I'm working out, dieting, and fasting..... henceforth natural whole food long-lasting
