v1
Mother died, 2010
Didn't help at all to pray
So I stayed half drunk
Laid in bed all day
Hard to manage, hard to cope
Couldn't shake the guilt I felt
Wanted to give up
Maybe shoot myself

chorus
Rough Couple Of Years
10, 11, half of 12
I'm telling you, man
I went through hell
Fell on hard times
Anguish and tears
Been there, done that
Rough Couple Of Years

v2
Got mugged in the street
Got hit from behind
He stole my wallet
He robbed me blind
He took my car keys
He stole my phone
Even took my glasses
Then left me alone

chorus
Rough Couple Of Years
10, 11, half of 12
I'm telling you, man
I went through hell
Fell on hard times
Anguish and tears
Been there, done that
Rough Couple Of Years

v3
Backed into a car
Some Chinese dude
He pissed me off
I tried to be rude
Geico paid the bill
He's outta my life
Gotta have insurance
For trouble and strife

chorus
Rough Couple Of Years
10, 11, half of 12
I'm telling you, man
I went through hell
Fell on hard times
Anguish and tears
Been there, done that
Rough Couple Of Years

v4
I slipped on some ice
I injured my knee
Walked with a cane
Through January
I heard from my ex
Making threats again
Don't want no lawyers
Don't want no women

chorus

v5
On top of all this
Got a DUI
I hate them cops
Man, that's no lie
I finally got up
In 2013
Got another decade
To be nasty and mean

chorus

What did Impediment change?

I would say look for the non-rhyme and work backwards, but that doesn't seem to help here.
