Nothing to Nobody Lyrics

I'm a father to my children,
I'm a husband to my wife
Seems I've been something to somebody
every day of my life
If this is part of a master plan,
It don't do much to preserve a man
I'd like to see what it feels like to be,
nothing to nobody,
Nothing to nobody

I'm a keeper to my brother,
I'm my momma's fair haired boy
But you know people, i would rather
be nobody's pride and joy

No man's an Island, so they say
But baby if I could go there for just one day
Cause I'd like to see, what it feels like to be,
nothing to nobody
I wanna be, free as a bird
Fly south for the winter
And by the time they miss me
I'd be long gone, long gone

For some people life is just a garden
Seems they can pick and choose for themselves
For me life can just be the burdens
That I choose to carry, carry for someone else
I'm top dog at my job,
I can do more than others can
And my boss likes to tell me,
Say's I'm his right hand man

The preacher on sunday, he tells me I am
just another child of god
But lord if you are there, listen if you can,
if you seem fit to answer my prayer
I'd like to see, what it feels like to be,
nothing to nobody

Wanna be
nothing to nobody
nothing to nobody
