Giving Up Giving In
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I got no cash, got no girl,
but I got the world in the palm of my hand
and I don't care if you care or if you understand
because i'm a little kid and I've got little problems
and I don't give a shit if you don't understand because:
I got me. (x2)
That's all I need. (x2)
And I live comfortably, (x2) and I sleep peacefully. (x2)
I got no cash, got no girl,
but I got the world in the palm of my hand
and I don't care if you care or if you understand
because i'm a little kid and I've got little problems
and I don't give a shit if you don't understand because:
I got me. (x2)
That's all I need. (x2)
And I live comfortably, (x2) and I sleep peacefully. (x2)
I give up.
I don't want to hear,
I don't want to be near you or your friends
and your dime a dozen miseries.
I don't care if you care about the way you wear
your hair or your shoes or your idiot attitude.
Don't stop because I want to hear your problems.
Don't you stop because I want to help you solve them.
Don't stop.
I give up!
I got no cash!
