The way things used to be
The way things used to be
Be fore the innocence was lost, yeah
The way things used to be
the way they used to be, man
The way things used to be
Remember back in the day when
I was feeling so fresh that I
See, those were the times,
The way things used to be
before the innocence was lost
sometimes a little too well
But I climb right back from the depths of hell
I excelled and prevailed from the
Henny all night, now I'm stumbling
Stripping off the hunger pains
Aim ing for the top with the blood
I still stay within my lane
The way things used to be
the way they used to be, man
The way things used to be
Before the innocence was lost, yeah
The way things used to be
the way they used to be, man
The way things used to be
the way they used to be, man
The way things used to be
Before the innocence was lost, yeah
The way things used to be
the way they used to be, man
The way things used to be
The way things used to be
Way back, my younger days
Ridin' bikes, ridin' mucks
The yesteryears and yesterdays
Stand the tide still droops away
knowing that it's ever -sent
Knowing that these years pass,
The way things used to be
the way they used to be, man
The way things used to be
Before the interceptor swapped, yeah
The way things used to be
the way they used to be, man
The way things used to be
And now those years are gone, yeah
Till we're dead and gone,
hands folded in the cemetery
Days in elementary, they made me smile
Were those feelings I have doubted,
from school fight nosebleeds
there's a lot we don't need
from friends to neighbours
We were so close, now distant strangers
look at all these changes
Getting weird looks from crooked faces
Lessons I learned when I was that wrong
though my innocence is lost
Mature from my years, yeah I paid the cost
Took it on me personally,
The way things used to be
Be fore the innocence was lost, ah
The way things used to be
the way they used to be, man
The way things used to be
Before the innocence was lost, yeah
The way things used to be
The way things used to way they used to be,
The way things used to be
Before the innocence was lost...
The way things used to be
The way things used to be
Before the innocence was lost
The way things used to be
