I'm a sidewalk
People trudge on me everyday
I've been cracking lately
Constantly being redone
Though I'm sturdy and hard to break
Everything does at some point
I'm a wall
Always stuck with tacks
With posters being hung up
Hit by fists and feet
Fixed with plaster
Then they forget the hole
I'm a human
Invariably making mistakes
A little fucked in the head
Never perfect
Made of the same as anybody else
Yet treated differently
I'm not a saint
But I'm certainly not the devil
I don't donate to charity
Still, I do what I can
I can be mean sometimes
I try not to be, still and all
I'm a lot of things
Most importantly, however
I'm me
