Reminsent of that Skynard feel we all love. Driving rythem, hard hitting lyrics and searing guitar. Nothing less than the best. But what else would you expect from Mirage

Story behind the song
This song is about the way things used to be. It's a commentary on the things that are changing in the world around us.
Lyrics
Ah yes, I've been out on my front porch swing Oh yes sitting back watching everything. Ain't if funny how fast things change What used to be familiar has now become strange Now there's children killing children In the school yard The streets have come home And they're Sure real hard Pusher mans standing there with poision to sell And the preacher man's yelling we all going to hell. There ain't no doubt that somethings gone wrong It's plain enough for a blind man to see We better do something before too long Got me wishing for, the way things used to be It doesn't take long for them to drive by Pockets full of money and acting real sly Take my advice and run as fast as you can Don't sell your soul to the buisness man Now there's children in the cold With no shoes on their feet Old women being thrown out into the street An honest man can't see the light of day Son things didn't used to be this way There ain't no doubt that somethings gone wrong It's easy enough for a blind man to see We better do something before too long. Got me wishing for, the way things used to be.
