What is gonna happen if I don't fix them?
So I have some really bad cavities in a few of my teeth and I'm jobless with no insurance. I literally can't fix them, I have no money. My parents say they can't afford it and won't pay for it. I cried for an hour or so today because I don't wanna lose my teeth but idk what else to do but just let it happen. If I'm not able to get them fixed what will happen and what else can it cause?

You must be in the US. In most other countries you can go to a school of dentistry, and be treated by students. This is never an issue as they use too much anaesthetic and take forever. and sometimes you get a top professor doing it, as showing how it's done.

Well unfortunately, once a cavity is there, it can only be fixed by a dentist. And if it doesn't get fixed, it will get a lot worse.
If you're over 18, call a dentist school. They will fix them usually free of charge, but the catch is, a student dentist will be doing the work. But no worries, a licensed dentist will be right there helping them.
If, you're under 18, have your parents call the dentist school for you and arrange an appointment.

Well they will crack and you will have bad pain you can try to make them last by not eating sugary items and getting quality tooth paste like the new crest pro health everything in one with sugar shield wish i had that years ago....but you should get them fixed now maybe they just need a fill before you need root canals fake teeth or get an infection or worse...
