Piece of gravel

Here I sit, twelfth year here
Tiny, not noticed, not thought about piece of the pathway
I’ve been bottom to top
Big broken to small
every single day
All my friends kicked away
The fact is I will always stay another piece of the pathway
We’ve all gone through bad, we’ve all had some good
We’ve all felt stepped on
But no matter who you are
No matter who knows you
No matter how similar you might seem to someone
Everyone is unique
So you should never say
I’m just another piece of the pathway.
