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 I could use a dream or a genie or a wish To go back to a place much simpler than this Cause after all the partying and smashing and crashing And all the glitz and the glam and the fashion And all the pandemonium and all the madness There comes a time where you fade to the blackness And when you staring at that phone in your lap And you hoping but them people never call you back But that's just how the story unfolds You get another hand soon after you fold And when your plans unravel in the sand What would you wish for if you had one chance So airplane, airplane, sorry I'm late I'm on my way so don't close that gate If I don't make that then I'll switch my flight And I'll be right back at it by the end of the night 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 Somebody take me back to the days Before this was a job, before I got paid Before it ever mattered what I had in my bank Yeah, back when I was trying to get a tip at Subway And back when I was rapping for the elephant But nowadays we rapping to stay relevant I'm guessing that if we can make some wishes out of airplanes Then maybe, yo, maybe I'll go back to the days Before the politics there we called a rap game And back when ain't nobody listen to my mixtape And back before I tried to cover up my slang But just this whole decade I was up, bobbing right So can I get a wish to end the politics And get back to the music that started this *** So here I stand and then again I say I'm hoping we can make some 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 I could really use a wish right now I could really use a wish right now Like, like, like shooting stars I could really use a wish right now A wish, a wish right now
