[Jennifer Hudson]

If anyones there can you hear my cry,

im falling way under, pull me out alive,

where the birds circle in the sky,

it couldnt happen at a badder time,

cos I got these unpaid bills

and Im thinking Imma lose my mind,

she better work with the clothes that she got up in the closet

or I might lose this house,

aint nothing funny, its hard times,

and I donâ€
