Foreigner – The Modern Day

Lead Vocals by Mick Jones

I stand up, for my pride

I don’t wanna be, just like anyone

‘Cause in this world, I cannot hide

I must finish, what I have begun

That’s the way I play

In the modern day

‘Cause I wanna stay

In the modern day

Got a picture, in my mind

Of the way, that I wanna be

So I search, until I find

The power, inside of me

It’s another phase

Of the modern day

Gotta face up to this life

Can’t let it get the best of me

So I make a sacrifice

If that’s the way it has to be

I’m doin’ what I feel is right

I’m ready if I need to fight

In the modern way

In the modern day

I gotta face up to this life

Can’t let it get the best of me

‘N’ if I make a sacrifice

That’s the way it has to be

Like a motor, in overdrive

I feel good, and I feel alive

I got no need, to beg or borrow

Got a shortcut, to tomorrow

‘N’ I’m on my way

To the modern day

Got a lot to say

In the modern day

‘Cause I need to stay

In the modern day

In the modern day
