When Everyone Needs a Piece of Me

when everyone needs a piece of me
we need a meat 
yes we need a meat 
the beef taste good
but remember
the cow pays the price 

responsibilities 
are never far 
from my feet 
so I got a lot 
mouth to feed 
could it be a blessing cos
I can never call it a curse 
despite it is hard to maintain
no wonder hard works
is written in my 
life page before now
hard works
is not a stranger 
to my kind 
I can't Denny this fact 
that am used to it 
if not how can I feed
this responsibilities 
around my neck 
too many mouth 
to feed 
am a human 
I wish they could
understand that too
despite I struggle 
yet I can't escape 
this time 
when everyone needs a piece of me 

we need a meat 
yes we need a meat 
the beef taste good 
but remember
the cow pays the price

when everyone needs a piece of me
success attract care 
before you gave a care 
you sure have a heart 
this heart got a soul 
so let it lead your care
we oath to live 
and if we oath to live 
we oath to gave 
but who gave 
with out having to gave 
what can I do 
when am out of giving
cos sometimes I lack 
sometimes I need a support too
yet I am always face always
with same time 
the time 
when everyone needs a piece of me

we need a meat
yes we need a meat
the beef taste good
but remember
but the cow pays the price

when everyone needs a piece of me
am transparent in my nature
I love to gave when I have 
am a good giver
it don't border me to gave 
cos it returns back to me 
like a karma 
yet it don't change
that sometimes am down 
cos am a human too 
struggling from the 
captivities of a modern world
I desire an energy to live 
as everyone 
so I need a support too
still am face always
with this time 
the time 
when everyone needs a piece of me

we need a meat
yes we need a meat
the beef taste good
but remember
the cow pays the price
