Lyrics

• 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

• Lets pretend like it's '98

• Like I'm eating lunch off of styrofoam trays

• Trying to be the next rapper comin' out the A

• Hoping for a record deal to ignore my pain

• Now lets pretend like I'm on the stage

• And when my beat drops everybody goes insane

• And everybody know my name and everywhere I go people wanna hear me sing

• Oh yeah, and I just dropped my new album

• On the first week I did five-hundred thousand

• Gold in the spring and diamond in the fall

• And then a world tour just to top it all off

• And lets pretend like they called me the greatest

• Selling out arenas with big stages

• And everybody loved me and no one ever hated

• Lets 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 lets pretend like this never happened

• Like I never had dreams of being a rapper

• Like I didn't write raps up in all of my classes

• Like I never used to run away into the blackness

• Now lets pretend like it was all good

• Like I didn't live staring in a notebook

• Like I did the things that I probably knew I should

• But I aint have neighbours thats why they call it hood

• Now lets pretend like I aint got a name

• Before they ever call me B.O.B

• A

• K

• A

• Bobby ray

• I'm talking back before the mixtapes

• Before the videos and the deals and the fame

• Before the ever once compared me to Andre

• Before I ever got on Myspace

• Before they ever noticed my face

• So lets 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 lets pretend, Marshall Mathers never picked up a pen

• Lets 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 and schools weren't changing again

• He wasn't socially awkward and just strange as a kid

• He had a father and his mother wasn't crazy as

• And he never dreamed he could rip stadiums and just lazy as

• a talent show in a gymnasium you won't amount to quit daydreaming kid

• You need to get your cranium checked you thinking like an alien it just ain't realistic

• Now pretend they ain't just make him angry with this

• And there was no one he could even aim when he's pissed it

• And his alarm went off to wake him off but he didn't make it to the rap Olympics left to his plane and he missed it

• He's gon' have a hard time explaining to Hailie and Laney these food stamps and this wic

• Cuz he never risked he hopes and he wished it but it didn't fall in his lap so he ain't even here

• He pretends 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
