I Am Nobody

Nobody strives to be a gentleman
Nobody will help teach the youth
Nobody likes virtue and chastity
Nobody cares for the truth
Nobody takes responsibility
Nobody heeds fatherly advice
Nobody refrains from profanity
Nobody refrains from vice
Nobody will stand for the underdog
Nobody will for his brother fight
Nobody believes in God any more
Nobody will die for what’s right
Allow me to introduce myself
Be my dress fine or shoddy
If you haven’t guessed by now
I must be Nobody
