A modern take on Nineties alternative. Recorded on an iPhone using a Casio keyboard for the drums and a Jackson Dinky through a Vox Valvetronix amp.

Modern pop-rock with a slight hint of Eighties and Nineties alternative.
Oldmangrady is a constantly evolving musical project that I torture myself with. There have been several line-up and style changes over the years. For the time being, Oldmangrady is Lee Modlin.

Story behind the song
I was thinking about how crazy this world is and how people put their trust in things that won't last. That got me to thinking about Jesus' words in Matthew 6 when He says not to store up treasures here on earth.
Lyrics
Lock up the doors, yeah there’s gonna be a riot Nowhere to hide, no use in even tryin The dream is over, no need to deny it The system has failed and there ain’t nobody buyin Got a treasure stored away Moth and rust won’t cause decay I’ll run my race and claim the prize I put my hope in something real A kingdom that no one can steal I’ll leave this world and all its lies Fallen kings will watch their castles crumble The Son of Man has caused the wise to stumble Lightning crashes, hear the thunder rumble This whole world is gonna shake and tumble Got a treasure stored away Moth and rust won’t cause decay I’ll run my race and claim the prize I put my hope in something real A kingdom that no one can steal I’ll leave this world and all its lies
