A NEW BEGINNING
ROCKIN’ RAMEN

Reach down deep inside you
To find the source of heat
Passion and commitment
Here is where they meet
Is it gently burning
Or coals not yet to light
What will be the catalyst
That starts you burning bright
For some it may be with them
From perhaps the day they are born
Others may discover it
When their life’s fabric is torn
It’s time to make a difference
Let your passion feed the flames
Share what you are made of
And the world won’t be the same
