Desperate Times/Desperate Measures
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.
Desperate times, desperate measures
Things could stand to be a lot better
Breaking my back, paying life's dues
I don't think I can walk anymore in these shoes
I can't get ahead
hard times have forced my hand
Forcing me to become what I despise
I gotta do it, swallow my pride
Forcing to become what I despise
Desperate measures for desperate times
