[Verse 1]

Yesterday, I

Met the maker

Stay in the lakeside

Near the water

Yesterday, I

Met the maker

In the backroom

Signed the papers for you

[Chorus]

This is a modern man

With his modern plans

And a feigned desire, ayy, yeah

To this modern man

With his modern plans

Say hello to desire

[Verse 2]

Yesterday I couldn't see straight

Foggy nighttime sows the mistrial

Couldn’t make it, could've never

Couldn't see it, couldn’t claim it

In the background, we'rе not back here

And I nevеr knew what it means

Just another, just a father

To a mother and a child

Of disaster, just a while

[Chorus]

This is a modern man

With his modern plans

Taking his last stand

This, this is where I stand

Just where I thought I'd land, and

This is a modern man taking who I am

With a, with a little sprinkle of desire

That nobody saw coming in fast, uh

This is a modern man

With his modern plans

And he's looking at the back of my head, huh

This is where I'd thought I'd land

I hope you're out there

[Bridge]

Gave a smile

That you'd never see

’Cause I

I am the modern man

With his modern plan

And no one can stop me

Come on

[Chorus]

This is a modern man

With his modern plans

And a feigned desire, ayy, yeah

To his modern man

To him, coming in fast, huh

This is a modern man

With his modern plans

And he’s looking at the back of my head, huh

This is where I'd thought I’d land

[Outro]

I hope you're out there

I hope you're out there

I hope you're out there

I know you’re out there

I pray you're out there
