5
Can we pretend that airplanes
6
In the night sky
7
Are like shooting stars
8
I could really use a wish right now (wish right now, wish right now)
9
(Dreamin', of fallin, dreamin', of fallin')
10
Let's pretend like its '98
11
Like I'm eating lunch off of Styrofoam trays
12
Trying to be the next rapper coming out the A
13
Hoping for a record deal, to re-know my pain
14
Now let's pretend like I'm on the stage
15
And when my beat drops everybody goes insane (ok)
16
And everybody know my name (B.o.B)
17
And everywhere I go people wanna hear me sang
18
Oh yea and I just dropped my new album
19
On the first week I did five hundred thousand
20
Gold in the spring and diamond in the fall
21
And then a world tour just to top it all off
22
And let's pretend like they call me the greatest
23
Selling out arenas with big ass stages
24
And everybody loved me and no one ever hated
25
Let's try to use imagination
26
Can we pretend that airplanes
27
In the night sky
28
Is like shooting stars
29
I could really use a wish right now (wish right now, wish right now)
30
Can we pretend that airplanes
31
In the night sky
32
Are like shooting stars
33
I could really use a wish right now (wish right now, wish right now)
34
Okay, let's pretend like this never happened
35
Like I never had dreams of being a rapper
36
Like I didn't write raps in all of my classes
37
Like I never used to runaway into the blackness
38
Now let's pretend like it was all-good
39
Like I didn't live starring in a notebook
40
Like I did the things I probably knew I should
41
But I didn't have neighbors that's why they call it hood
42
Now let's pretend like I ain't got a name
43
Before they ever called me B.o.B or a.k.a Bobby Ray
44
I'm talking back before the mixtapes
45
Before the videos and the deals and the fame
46
Before they ever once compared me to Andre
47
Before I ever got Myspace
48
Before they ever noticed my face
49
So let's just pretend and make wishes out of airplanes
50
Can we pretend that airplanes
51
In the night sky
52
Is like shooting stars
53
I could really use a wish right now (wish right now, wish right now)
54
Can we pretend that airplanes
55
In the night sky
56
Are like shooting stars
57
I could really use a wish right now (wish right now, wish right now)
58
(And it seems like yesterday it was just a dream
59
But those days are gone, they're just memories
60
And it seems yesterday it was just a dream
61
But those days are gone)
62
Let's pretend Marshall Mathers never picked up a pen
63
Let's pretend things would've been no different
64
Pretend he procrastinated, had no motivation
65
Pretend he just made excuses that
66
Was so paper thin they could blow away wit the wind
67
Marshall you never gone make it,
68
Makes no sense to play the game it ain't no way that'll you win
69
Pretend he just stand out side all day and play with his friends
70
Pretend he even had a friend to say was his friend
71
And it wasn't time to move in school no changing again
72
He wasn't socially awkward and just strange as a kid
73
He had a father and his mother wasn't crazy as shit
74
And he never dreamed he can ripped stadiums he just lazy as shit
75
Fuck a talent show in the gymnasium bitch
76
You won't amount to shit quit day dreaming kid
77
You need to get ya cranium check you thinking like an alien
78
It just ain't realistic
79
Now pretend they ain't just make him angry with this shit
80
And there was no one he could even aim when he's pissed with
81
And his alarm went off to wake him but he didn't make it to the rap Olympics
82
He slept through his plane and he missed it
83
He's gonna have a hard time explaining to Haley and Laney these food stamps and W-I-C shit
84
'Cause he never risked shit, he hoped and he wished it
85
But it didn't fall in his lap so he ain't even hear it he pretends that
86
Airplanes
87
In the night sky
88
Is like shooting stars
89
I could really use a wish right now (wish right now, wish right now)
90
Can we pretend that airplanes
91
In the night sky
92
Are like shooting stars
93
I could really use a wish right now (wish right now, wish right now)
