The gas prices are steadily going up
While the stock market is plummeting down
Just where it all will finally end
Makes one wonder, can’t help but frown
The interest rates are sharply rising
Along with grocery prices at the store
In futility, you can’t help but wonder
If we can really take it any more
Scared people are stockpiling ammunition
Preparing for a very possible doomsday
Even that is becoming hard to do
When just barely surviving takes all your pay
The government tries to figure it out
Impossible considering they can’t get along
Tenured politicians who could care less
Need to be told they no longer belong
Inflation, it has reared its ugly head
And it always hits the needy the most
Desperation causes crimes to happen
“I’ll do what I have to,” they defiantly boast
The only possible saving grace I can see
Are the promises to us God has made
He will always supply His children’s needs
Through a Devil’s world upheaval tirade
