A 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

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

Yeah, 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 partyin' and smashin' and crashin'
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 starin' at that phone in your lap
And you 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 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

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

Ya, ya, somebody take me back to the days
Befo' this was a job, befo' I got paid

Befo' it ever mattered what I had in my bank
Ya, back when I was tryin' to get a tip at Subway

And back when I was rappin' for the hell of it
But nowadays we rappin' to stay relevant

I'm guessin' that if we can make some wishes outta' airplanes
Then maybe oh maybe I'll go back to the days

Befo' the politics that we call the rap game
And back when ain't nobody listen to my mixtape

And back befo' I tried to cover up my slang
But this is fo' Decatur, what's up Bobby Ray?

So can I get a wish
To end the politics

And get back to the music
That started this sh*t?

So here I stand and then again I say
I'm hopin' we can make some wishes outta' 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)

I-I-I could really use a wish right now
(I could really use a wish right now)

Like, like, like shootin' stars
(Like shootin' stars)

I-I-I-I could really use a wish right now
(I could really use a wish right now)

A wish, a wish right now
(A wish right now)
