Being A Nobody...

I like being a nobody
Being somebody seems overrated
You have to become some thing
to be anybody
but to be a nobody
you don't have to
be or do anything

And yet if you're clever about it
you can still do anything
It can even be easier to do
everything you want to do
because no one will be around
to tell you that you're supposed
to be more like somebody else
or act like anybody else

Pretending to be somebody
doesn't make you anybody
Being a nobody doesn't mean
you can't pretend to be something else
You just don't become known
for being anything in particular
by anyone that believes
they are something in particular

Being a nobody
can make some resent everybody
These are the nobodies that wish
they were somebody

The nobodies
that genuinely prefer
being nobodies
can find themselves at peace
with almost anybody
and find greater peace
without anybody
which almost nobody else
can do

Being a nobody
can be as good as being anybody
but a true nobody
wouldn't just take my word for it
or anyone's word for anything
Being a nobody
you don't have to...
