Mick Jones)
I stand up for my pride
I don't wanna be just like anyone
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 saty
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
Gotta face up to this life
Can't let it get the best of me
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
And I'm on my way
To the modern day
That's the way I play
In the modern day
'Cause I'm hear to stay
In the modern day
In the modern day
