Real World

Verse 1

Woke up to a skyline missing

Concrete holding promises it can't keep

Every screen a window to a fiction

Every dollar earned feels buried deep

Pre-Chorus

And I trace the cracks back to my name

Chasing the grain of a burning frame

Chorus

This is the real world

No fade to black

This is the real world

Give it back

This is the real world

No rerun no rewrite

This is the real world

Hold on tight

Drop

Real world

Real world

Real world

Real world

Verse 2

Saw my reflection in a glass office tower

Borrowed suits and borrowed hours

Phones buzzing like a hive of lies

Selling me a sunrise in disguise

Pre-Chorus

And the noise climbs up my spine like rain

Beating the grain of a burning frame

Chorus

This is the real world

No fade to black

This is the real world

Give it back

This is the real world

No rerun no rewrite

This is the real world

Hold on tight

Drop

Real world

Real world

Real world

Real world

Bridge

Maybe I misread the static

Maybe the streets were always plastic

But the weight is real

The weight is real

Chorus

This is the real world

No fade to black

This is the real world

Give it back

This is the real world

Hold on tight

Hold on tight

Hold on tight
