Airplanes
B.O.B; hayley williams Lyrics

Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shootin' stars
Can we imagine that planes in the dark sky resemble shooting stars?

I could really use a wish right now, wish right now, wish right now
I desperately need to make wishes right now, right now, right now.

Yeah, I could use a dream or a genie or a wish
I wish for a dream, genie, or wish to go back to a simpler time.

To go back to a place much simpler than this
To return to a simpler time and place.

'Cause after all the partyin' and smashin' and crashin'
After all the partying, wrecking, and breaking things.

And all the glitz and glam and the fashion
And all the flashy and glamorous fashion.

And all the pandemonium and all the madness
And all the insanity and chaos.

There comes a time where you fade to the blackness
There's a time when everything goes black.

And when you're starin' at the phone in your lap
When you're gazing down at your phone.

And you hopin' but them people never call you back
And you're hoping for a callback, but it never comes.

But that's just how the story unfolds
That's just how the story plays out.

You get another hand soon after you fold
You'll be dealt another hand soon even if you fold.

And when your plans unravel in the sand
And when your plans fall apart.

What would you wish for, if you had one chance?
If you had one chance, what would you wish for?

So airplane, airplane sorry I'm late
Apologies for being late, airplane, airplane.

I'm on my way so don't close that gate
I'm on my way, so please don't close the gate.

If I don't make that, then I'll switch my flight
If I can't make it, I'll change my flight.

And I'll be right back at it by the end of the night
And I'll be back at it by the end of the night.

Yeah, yeah, somebody take me back to the days
Please, someone take me back to the days.

Before this was a job, before I got paid
Before this was a profession, before I got paid for it.

Before it ever mattered what I had in my bank
Before my bank account balance mattered.

Yeah, back when I was tryna get a tip at Subway
When I was working hard for a tip at Subway.

And back then I was rappin' for the hell of it
Back when I rapped just for fun.

But nowadays we rappin' to stay relevant
But now we rap to remain popular.

I'm guessin' that if we can make some wishes out of airplanes
I believe that if we can wish on airplanes.

Then maybe, oh maybe, I'll go back to the days
Then perhaps, just maybe, I can go back in time.

Before the politics that we call the rap game
Before the industry politics of the rap game.

And back when ain't nobody listened to my mixtape
When nobody listened to my mixtape.

And back before when I tried to cover up my slang
When I tried to conceal my slang.

But this is for Decatur, what's up Bobby Ray?
But this is for Decatur, what's happening Bobby Ray?

So can I get a wish to end the politics?
Can I make a wish to end the industry politics?

And get back to the music that started this shit
And return to the music that began all of this.

So here I stand and then again I say
So here I am, and once again, I repeat.

I'm hoping we can make some wishes out of airplanes
I hope we can make wishes on airplanes.

I could really use a wish right now
I seriously need a wish right now.

I, I, I could really use a wish right now
I, I, I really need a wish right now.

Like, like, like shootin' stars
Like, like, like shooting stars.

I, I, I could, I could really use a wish right now
I, I, I really need a wish right now.

A wish, a wish right now
A wish, a wish right now.
