[Chorus - Hayley Can we pretend airplanes In the sky Are shooting stars I could really use a wish now (Wish right now, wish right now) Can we pretend that In the sky Are shooting stars I could use a wish right now (Wish right now, wish right now)
(Dreaming, of falling, dreaming, of falling)
1 - B.o.B] Let's pretend its '98, like I'm eating lunch off of Styrofoam trays to be the next rapper coming out the A Hoping for a record deal, to my fame Now pretend like I'm on the stage And when my beat everybody goes insane (Okay) And everybody my name (B.o.B) And I go people want to hear me sing Oh yeah, and I dropped my new album On the first I did five hundred thousand Gold in the spring, and in the fall And then a world tour to top it all off And let's pretend like call me the greatest Selling out arenas big ass stages And everybody loved me and no one hated Let's try to use
