Nobody Not Really Lyrics
Who really cares?
Who really cares?
When I talk?
What I feel?
What I say?
Nobody not really
Who wants to take
The time to understand
I would like someone to hear me with some empathy
But I can't find…
Nobody not really
Maybe I'm invisible to the world
Does anyone in the world even think of me?
As more than just a hopeless cause
Maybe the world is not my block
My stoop
My life
My dreams
My anything, anything
Who wants to help?
Mama, but she's so tired
Papa, but you're not here
I'm alone in a big empty space
Who really cares?
When I talk?
What I feel?
What I say?
Nobody not really
The time to understand
I would like someone to hear me with some empathy
But I can't find…
Nobody not really
Does anyone in the world even think of me?
As more than just a hopeless cause
Maybe the world is not my block
My life
My dreams
My anything, anything
Mama, but she's so tired
Papa, but you're not here
I'm alone in a big empty space

This song really should open everyone's eyes to the reality that in the end, all you have to survive is yourself, and that if youre not strong enough, that wont help you much, either.
Alicia Keys will soon reign as the next Queen of Soul
P.S.- Oh yeah, and the song is really nice too. The whole album is the shit.
I feel ya sista! It's excactly how I feel! Apart from my papa not bein' here! But I feel the same way all the time! We must be related or somin' alicia! Vuz we are so like each other in many other ways too!
This song to me sounds like the danger of depression. When someone is in need of help, and no one is around, they feel like they don't belong in this world, and no one really cares. Mama and Papa don't even have the time or will to be concerned. Teenager's athem!
This song is just like "Prelude to a kiss" a window into the personal life of a celebrity. It still gets lonely.
