Ramen Noodles Taste Good

Did as expected.
Chose a goal and played my role.
Protection expected but neglected, thousands affected.
Filled with light, prosperity endless and danger out of sight.
Was doin' well until the economy fell.
Ramen noodles taste good.
Labored many hours a day thankful that the day's work was done.
Seems it didn't matter.
Now seeking shelter from the sun.
Friends and family scatter as my hopes and dreams shatter.
Dark shrouded words so inclined dredge through the darkness of my mind.
Ramen noodles taste good.
Want to turn and run.
Sadness and rage simplifies the sage.
Another day, oh how could I hide from what has been done.
Out of work, foreclosures, no improvement in sight.
Democrat and Republican alike nothing solved worsening the people's plight.
Ramen noodles taste good.
Life's temporal lease perhaps soon to vacate early His release.
Keep the wolves at bay.
Wall Street and Washington continue to fleece.
Praying for a better day.
Ramen noodles taste good.
