Walking on these feet
at times they hurt me so much
yet no one will know

That last line is actually quite profound, we have to walk in another's shoes (skin in this case) to know their pain.

An high school teacher of mine would tell the class, "Don't pass judgment on someone till you walk in their shoes." After all those years I still remember those words.
