Lyrics

Chorus
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
Verse 1
I could use a dream, or a genie, or a wish
To go back to this place much simpler than this
Cause after all the partyin and the smashin and crashin
And all the glitz and the glamour and the fashion
And all the pandemonium and all the madness
There comes a time when you fade to the blackness
And when you're starin at the phone in your lap
And hopin 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 in it by the end of the night
Chorus
Verse 2
Somebody take me back to the day
Before this was a job, before I got paid
Before it ever mattered what I had in my bank
Yeah, back when I was tryin to get a tip at Subway
And back when I was rappin for the hell of it
But now these days we be rappin to stay relevant
I'm guessin that way we can make some wishes out of airplanes
Then maybe, oh maybe I'll go back to the day
Before the politics that we call the rap game
And back when ain't nobody listened to my mixtapes
And back before I tried to cover up my slate
But this is for Decatur, what's up Bobby Ray?
So can I get a wish to end this politics
And get back to the music that started this shit?
So here I stand and again I say
I'm hopin we can make some wishes out of airplanes
Chorus
I could really use a wish right now
I could really use a wish right now
Ah, ah, ah, yo
You look like a shooting star
I could really use a wish right now
A wish, a wish right now
