Entourage
(Piece of you)
By Michelle Morris
23/01/2023

You think they love you, don't you?
But you're deluded about it all
They're only your entourage
Not friends that are real and loyal 

I know damaged people are dangerous
But can't you see you're killing yourself?
When will you realise, honey
That I'm only trying to help?

You don't have to give up yourself
You don't have to sacrifice your soul
Real friends are loving and supportive
Real friends help you find your way home

So, come on, girl, come on...

Not everyone wants a piece of you
Not everyone is on the take
Some of us want you for yourself
Want to see you smile again

Not everyone wants a piece of you
Not everyone will tear up your heart
Some of us want the best for you
We'll be your friends forevermore 

Here you go again, honey
Going right for the jugular
You're so used to fighting
You can't even work out what's real

You surround yourself with fake fans
You keep your entourage in tow
You think if there are enough buffers
You'll never have to feel anything real

You don't have to give up yourself
You don't have to sacrifice your soul
Real friends are loving and supportive
Real friends help you find your way home

So, come on, girl, come on...

Not everyone wants a piece of you
Not everyone is on the take
Some of us want you for yourself
Want to see you smile again

Not everyone wants a piece of you
Not everyone will tear up your heart
Some of us want the best for you
We'll be your friends forevermore 

Oh, no, no, no... Oh-oh-oh...

Not everyone wants a piece of you
Not everyone is on the take
Some of us want you for yourself
Want to see you smile again

Not everyone wants a piece of you
Not everyone will tear up your heart
Some of us want the best for you
We'll be your friends forevermore 

So, come on, girl, come on...
