There about nothing on a 12f508 or 509. I't's only good to top down code there is no ADC
The timer you have to poll to do anything useful.

Why are you using an old fashioned high current magnetic mechanical transducer (speaker) instead of a modern low current piezo beeper that has its own oscillator inside?
Basically because it is what I've found of that size...
Do you have a 10x10x2mm (more or less)device to suggest?

You should add current limiting resistors to GP1 and GP2.

You need a pull-up resistor on GP3.

If your speaker is a standard speaker, you might fry it with DC current. Speakers should be capacitively coupled to your supply.
GP3 is set with weak pull up.

GP1 and GP2 current limiting resistors... are these a must?

Means it's not much of a chip every thing would need to be done in code no timer flags
Do ADC not much of anything
