The Ready Set – Airplanes lyrics

Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars?
I could really use a wish right now, a wish right now, 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, a wish right now, a 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
Cuz after all the partying, and the smashing and the crashing, and all the glitz and the glam, 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 staring at that phone in your lap
And you're hoping 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, a wish right now, 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, a wish right now, a wish right now

Yeah, yeah
Somebody take me back to the days
Before this was a job, before I got paid, before it ever mattered what I had in my bank
Get back to when I was trying to get a tip at subway
And back when I was rapping for the hell of it
But nowadays we rappin to stay relevant
I'm guessing that if we could make some wishes out of airplanes then maybe oh maybe I'd go back to the days
Before the politics that we call rap game
And back to when ain? T nobody listened to my mix tape
And back before I tried to cover up my slang
But this is for the 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 shit
So here I stand and then again I say I'm hoping we could make some 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, a wish right now, 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, a wish right now, a wish right now

I could really use a wish right now, right now
I-I-I could really use a wish right now, right now
Like, like, like shooting stars, stars
I-I-I could really use a wish right now, right now
A wish, a wish right now
