Airplanes II

Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky
Are like shooting stars?
I could really use a wish right now
Wish right now, wish right now

Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky
Are like shooting stars?
I could really use a wish right now
Wish right now, wish right now

Dreaming of falling
Dreaming of falling

Yeah, lets' pretend like it's 98
Like I'm eating lunch off of a Styrofoam tray
Trying to be the next rapper coming out the A
Hoping for a record deal, to renew my pain

Now let's pretend like I'm on the stage
And when my beat drops everybody goes insane, okay
And everybody know my name
(Bob)
And everywhere I go people wanna hear me sing

Oh, yea, and I just dropped my new album
On the first week I did 500 thousand
Gold in the spring and diamond in the fall
And then a world tour just to top it all off

And let's pretend like they call me the greatest
Selling out arenas with big ass stages
And everybody loved me and no one ever hated
Let's try to use imagination

Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky
Are like shooting stars?
I could really use a wish right now
Wish right now, wish right now

Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky
Are like shooting stars?
I could really use a wish right now
Wish right now, wish right now

Okay, let's pretend like this never happened
Like I never had dreams of being a rapper
Like I didn't write raps in all of my classes
Like I never use to runaway into the blackness

Now let's pretend like it was all good
Like I didn't live starring in a notebook
Like I did the things that I probably knew I should
But I didn't have maybes that's why they call it hood

Now lets pretend like I ain't got a name
Before they ever called me B.O.B or a.k.a Bobby Ray
I'm talking back before the mixtapes
Before the videos and the deals and the fame

Before they ever once compared me to Andre
Before I ever got on my space
Before they ever noticed my face
So let's just pretend and make wishes out of airplanes

Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky
Are like shooting stars?
I could really use a wish right now
Wish right now, wish right now

Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky
Are like shooting stars?
I could really use a wish right now
Wish right now, wish right now

And it seems like yesterday, it was just a dream
But those days are gone and just memories
And it seems like yesterday, it was just a dream
But those days are gone

Alright, let's pretend Marshall Mathers never picked up a pen
Let's pretend things would have been no different
Pretend he procrastinated had no motivation
Pretend he just made excuses that were so paper thin

They could blow away with the wind
Marshall you're never gonna make it
Makes no sense to play the game
There ain't no way that you'll win

Pretend, he just stayed outside all day
And played with his friends
Pretend he even had a friend to say was his friend
And it wasn't time to move in schools when changing again

He wasn't socially awkward and just strange as a kid
He had a father and his mother wasn't crazy as shit
And he never dreamed he could rid of stadiums
And just lazy as shit

Fuck a talent show in a gymnasium bitch
You're all about the shit, quit day dreaming kid
You need to get your cranium checked
You're thinking like an alien, it just ain't realistic

Now pretend, they ain't just make him angry with this shit
And there was no one he could even aim
At when he's pissed with
And his alarm went off to wake him
But he didn't make it to the Rap Olympics
Slept through his plane and he missed it

He's gonna have a hard time explaining to Hailey and Lainey
These food stamps and this weak shit
'Cause he never risked shit, he hoped and he wished it
But it didn't fall in his lap, so he ain't even here
He pretends that

Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky
Are like shooting stars?
I could really use a wish right now
Wish right now, wish right now

Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky
Are like shooting stars?
I could really use a wish right now
Wish right now, wish right now
