Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Can we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky are like shooting stars?
'Cause I could really use a wish right now
A wish right now, a wish right now
[Verse 2]
Can we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky are like shooting stars?
'Cause I could really use a wish right now
A wish right now, a wish right now
[Verse 3]
Yo, I could use a wish or a genie or a Tinker Bell
To find my never ever land to save me from this hell
Can't go back to that one room shack
Where the floor met the mattress or door with the latches
[Verse 4]
Before all the actors, the models, and stuff
Before all the clubs, the bottles, the cups
We swore, we would practice and ignore the sadness
Hold onto our wish even if they think it's madness
[Verse 5]
Whatcha gon' do when your wish shows up?
So many saw their chance and they just froze up
So, airplane, airplane, don't leave that runway
I got my ticket and I swear, it's a one way
[Verse 6]
Can we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky are like shooting stars?
'Cause I could really use a wish right now
A wish right now, a wish right now
[Verse 7]
Can we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky are like shooting stars?
'Cause I could really use a wish right now
A wish right now, a wish right now
[Verse 8]
Can somebody take me back in time
When it was nothing but survival on the mind?
Working odd jobs just to hustle for a dime
Didn't work, considering a life of crime
[Verse 9]
Back when I was working Popeye's Chicken but my rhymes still kicking
Saving up the cash so that I can take a trip in
On to a charter bus four hours, still wasn't tripping
Back when I pushed that demo and they simply wouldn't listen
[Verse 10]
But that all ceased, I reserved my seat
I endured the turbulence, I'm back in one piece
You see that airplane that's parked on the runway?
Before it takes off, make sure you catch it one day
[Verse 11]
Can we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky are like shooting stars?
'Cause I could really use a wish right now
A wish right now, a wish right now
[Verse 12]
Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars
In the night sky are like shooting stars?
'Cause I could really use a wish right now
A wish right now, a wish right now
[Verse 13]
I could really use a wish right now
Whoa
I, I, I could really use a wish right now
Like, like, like shooting stars
Whoa
I, I, I could really use a wish right now
A wish right now, a wish right now
