Give it Up Lyrics

I don't know what I need
I don't know what to say
I'm shaky on my feet
This temporary place
This momentary phase
Is smaller than we see

Chorus:
I'm tired of getting lost and so frustrated
If I get another chance, I'll take it
I wanna give it up this time
And you can't stop me
From givin' up what's mine
'Cause I don't need these superficial things
I can't buy what life can bring

At the end of the day
All of this will fade
No longer can I wait
As I'm walking through this storm
My feet are bruised and worn
But I want nothing but to stay

Chorus

I want something bigger than my life
Give me the strength to do it right this time
I want something constant through this strife
I want it I want it

I wanna give it up this time
And you can't stop me
From givin' up what's mine
'Cause I don't need these superficial things
All these superficial things
All these superficial things
I can't buy what life can bring

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
