CHORUS
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

VERSE ONE
Lets pretend like its 98,
like Im eating lunch off of a Styrofoam trey
Trying to be the next rapper coming out the A
Hoping for a record deal, to re-know my pain
Now let's pretend like Im on the stage
And when my beat drops everybody goes insane (Ok)
And everybody know my name (B.o.B)
And everywhere I go people wanna hear me sang
Oh yeah and I just dropped my new album
On the first week I did 500 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 call me the greatest
Selling out arenas with big ass stages
And everybody loved me and no one ever hated
Lets try to use imagination

CHORUS
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

VERSE TWO

Ok, lets pretend like this never happened
Like I never had dreams of being a rapper
Like I didnt write raps in all of my classes
Like I never use to runaway into the blackness
Now lets pretend like it was all-good
Like I didnt live starring in a notebook
Like I did the things I probably knew I should
But I didnt have neighbours
thats why they call it hood
Now let's pretend like I ain't got a name
Before they ever called me
B.o.B or a.k.a Bobby Ray
Im talking back before the mixtapes
Before the videos and the deals and the fame
Before they once compared me to Andre
Before I ever got myspace
Before they ever noticed my face
So lets just pretend and
make wishes out of airplanes

CHORUS
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

BRIDGE
And it seems like yesterday
it was just a dream
But those days are gone,
there are just memories
And it seems like yesterday
it was just a dream
But those days are gone

VERSE THREE (EMINEM)
Lets Pretend Marshall Mathers never picked up a pen
Lets pretend things wouldve been no different
Pretend people procrastinated had no motivation
Pretend he just made excuses
that was so paper thin
they could blow away wit the wind
Marshal you never gone make it,
makes no sense to play the game
it aint no way thatll you win
Pretend he just stand out side all day
and play with his friends
Pretend he even had a friend
to say was his friend
And it wasnt time to move in
school no changing again
He wasnt socially awakard
and just strange as a kid
He had a father and
his mother wasnt crazy as shit
And he never dreamed he can ripped stadiums
he just lazy as shit
Fuck a talent show in the gymnasium bitch
You wont amount to shit quit day dreaming kid
You need to get ya cranium check
you thinking like an alien
It just aint realistic
Now pretend they aint just
make him angry with this shit
And there was no one
he could even aim when hes pissed with
And his alarm went off to wake him
but he didn't make it to the rap Olympics
Left to his plane and he missed it
Hes gonna have a hard time
explaining to Haley and maybe
these food stamps and WIC shit
Cause he never risked shit
he hoped and he wished it
But it didnt fall in his lap
so he aint even hear it he pretends that

CHORUS
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
