''This is the real world'' is based on a phrase that was repeated many times throughout my life. I was a dreamy young man, and I often fantasized about becoming a big time music/film producer. But that can't be achieved without taking the proper steps for it. Where ‘’Ployidraine’’ can be interpreted as happy and dreamy, ‘’This is the real world’’ is far more dark toned and serious, just like the reality that we all share with one another.

Yet, this song also still has dreamy elements. For example, the ringing sound playing through the mix is a live recording of me rubbing my finger over the top of a wine glass, and then placed in Fruity Sampler, where it was fine tuned to match up with the tonality of the other instruments. The reverbed beats are made in FPC, where I built my own drum patch from scratch. The only slightly distinguishable vocals were modulated with a custom vocal effect in Logitech G Hub, then ran through Edison with a blur effect applied on top of it, giving it it's psuedo-reverbed status.

Lyrics:
"This is the real world,
our world,
your world..." (x2)
