Hand In My Pocket
Kassassin Street Lyrics

I'm broke but I'm happy, I'm poor but I'm kind
Despite not having much money, I am content and try to be compassionate towards others.

I'm short but I'm healthy, yeah
Although I may be small in stature, I am physically well.

I'm high but I'm grounded, I'm sane but I'm overwhelmed
Even though I may feel euphoric, I remain level-headed and rational, though I have many tasks on my plate.

I'm lost but I'm hopeful, baby
Although I may not have a clear direction, I maintain optimism in my life.

What it all comes down to Is that everything's gonna be fine, fine, fine 'Cause I've got one hand in my pocket And the other one is giving a high five
Ultimately, I believe that everything will work out okay, and I remain cheerful about it. I keep moving forward with a lighthearted spirit and a friendly demeanor.

I feel drunk but I'm sober, I'm young and I'm underpaid I'm tired but I'm working, yeah
Although I may feel disoriented, I am fully functional and alert. I am not paid as much as I would like to be, and sometimes I feel exhausted from work.

I care but I'm restless, I'm here but I'm really gone I'm wrong and I'm sorry baby
I care about what I do, but sometimes I feel like I should be doing more. I may be physically present, but oftentimes my mind is elsewhere. I make mistakes and will apologize when necessary.

What it all comes down to Is that everything is going to be quite alright 'Cause I've got one hand in my pocket And the other one is flicking a cigarette
In the end, I am confident that everything will be okay. I casually smoke a cigarette while maintaining my active mindset.

What it all comes down to Is that I haven't got it all figured out just yet 'Cause I've got one hand in my pocket And the other one is giving a peace sign
Ultimately, I do not know everything and acknowledge that, but try to maintain a calm demeanor. I remain peaceful even in uncertain situations.

I'm free but I'm focused, I'm green but I'm wise I'm hard but I'm friendly, baby
I am independent while keeping a firm grasp on what is important to me. Though I may lack experience in some areas, I am knowledgeable in others. Though I am determined, I try to be warm and inviting to others.

I'm sad but I'm laughing, I'm brave but I'm chicken shit I'm sick but I'm pretty baby
Despite being a bit down, I try to maintain a humorous attitude. Although I am courageous, I may still have some fears. Despite struggling with health issues, I still present myself as attractive.

And what it all boils down to Is that no one's really got it figured out just yet I've got one hand in my pocket And the other one is playing the piano
In the end, everyone is still learning and figuring out their lives. While one hand is relaxed, the other is channeling creative energy through playing the piano.

And what it all comes down to, my friends, yeah Is that everything is just fine fine fine I've got one hand in my pocket And the other one is hailing a taxi cab
Ultimately, I believe everything is okay, and I casually hail a cab while going about my day.
