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]
Lets pretend like we were back in ‘05
Back to a time, when mammy was still alive
Before cancers chokehold, back before she died
Back before i had that frozen cold bitterness inside
Back to a time when i was just an ordinary kid
Getting into fights, and doing ordinary shit
Writing tight rhymes, to make the biggest hits
And biding my time, in hopes of making it big
Now lets insist my dreams didnt exist
Like i was never persistent, to be with mammy like i wished
Like i was never consistent with these lyrics that i spit
And i was never a lyricist, with dreams of hitting it big
But instead, lets pretend we could invert the past
Forget the present, and reverse back fast
To relive the good times, and keep a tight grasp
Hoping if we never let go, they could eternally last
[Hook]
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 2]
Someone take me back to the past
Back to a time of complete contrast
When life was easy, with no responsibilities
I could be free, not worry what would become of me
If only it could bring me back to a time
Before my momma died, and i could save her with my rhymes
If i could spit a few lines, to pay to cure her cancer
But the time has passed and i’ll never know the answer
(Damn)
I wish i could stay young, for the rest of my life
Instead of a dead-end job, working nine to five
I wish my future was brighter than the sun
But i guess, you dont always get what you want
So i guess that this, will remain an unfilled wish
And im destined to live life, filled with anguish
Im determined to chase that shooting star til i get what im owed
So i stay equipt, with a tight beat and a microphone
[Hook]
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
