Biggest Piece

[Intro] I was small and the stove hummed in gold A kitchen chorus where stories unfold [Verse 1] Aisha here, with crumbs on my sleeve Eyes on the prize, a fish with a gleam Biggest slice on the plate we claimed Brother’s grin louder than the flame [Pre-Chorus] We bargained with giggles, stubborn and sweet Two little hearts, tasting summers on beat [Chorus] I won the biggest piece, but I found something true Laughter rings louder than any cue In the steam, I see us, bold and free The memory is the prize that followed me [Verse 2] Years drift by like noodles in broth But I hear his laugh, soft and warm enough Simple joys, simple days, no need to chase Just a kitchen, a memory, and his face [Pre-Chorus] If I could go back, I’d trade the plate for time Keep that brother’s voice in a corner of mine [Chorus] I won the biggest piece, but I found something true Laughter rings louder than any cue In the steam, I see us, bold and free The memory is the prize that followed me [Bridge] Maybe the feast is never the fish we kept But the love that rose when we both left [Chorus] I won the biggest piece, but I found something true Laughter rings louder than any cue In the steam, I see us, bold and free The memory is the prize that followed me [Outro] Aisha carrying a kitchen full of light The laughter lingers, turning day to night
