B.o.B - Airplanes (Part II) Lyrics

[9 seconds instrumental]

[Chorus 1: Haylay Williams]
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 nooow!
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!

[Bridge A: B.o.B (Haylay Williams)]
Dreamin'! (OOoooooohhhhhh-ooooohhhhhhh!)
I'm fallin'! (Hmmmm-hmmmm-hmmmmmmmm!)
Dreamin'! (OOooooooooohhhhoohoooohoooohooooohooooohhhhhhh!)
I'm fallin'! (OOooooooooohhhhoohoooohoooohooooohooooohhhhhhh!)

[B.o.B:]
Yeah, yeah! - Let's pretend like it's 98,
Like I'm eatin' lunch off of Styrofoam treys. (yeah!)
Trying to be the next rapper comin' out the A (A-town?)
Hoping for a record deal, to re-know my pain. (yeah!)
Now let's pretend like I'm on the stage (check!)
And when my beat drops everybody goes insane! (whooo!)
Okay! - And everybody know my name (B.o.B?)
And everywhere I go people wanna hear me sang. (hohoho!)
Oh, yeah! - And I just dropped my new album
On the first week I did 500 thousand. (yess!)
Gold in the spring! - And diamond in the fall! (okay!)
And then a world tour just to top it all off. (ohh!)
And let's pretend like they call me the greatest (yeah!)
Selling out arenas with big ass stages. (ewww!)
And everybody loved me and no one ever hated (hmm!)
Let's try to use imagination!

[Chorus 2: Haylay Williams (B.o.B)]
Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky
Are like shooting stars. (shooting stars!)
I could really use a wish right now, (wish right now!)
Wish right now (wish right now!) wish right nooow! (wish right now!)
Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky
Are like shooting stars! (shooting stars!)
I could really use a wish right now, (wish right now!)
Wish right now (wish right now!) wish right now! (wish right now!)

[B.o.B:]
Okay! - Let's pretend like this never happened! (yeah!)
Like I never had dreams of being a rapper! (rapper!)
Like I didn't write raps in all of my classes! (classes!)
Like I never used to runaway into the blackness! (yeah!)
Now - let's pretend like it was all-good! (good!)
Like I didn't live starring in a notebook (notebook!)
Like I did the things I probably knew I should (should!)
But I didn't have neighbours, that's why they call it hood! (yeah!)
Now let's pretend like I ain't got a name! (nah!)
Before they ever called me B.o.B or A.K.A Bobby Ray. (Bobby Ray!)
I'm talkin' back before the mixtapes (loud!)
Before the videos and the deals and the fame (yeah!)
Before they ever once compared me to Andre, (do ya thangs!)
Before I ever got MySpace! (yeah!)
Before they ever noticed my face (yeah!)
So let's just pretend - and make wishes out of airplanes. [airplanes flys away]

[Chorus 2]

[Bridge B: B.o.B + (Haylay Williams)]
And it seems like yesterday - it was just a dream!
Those days are gone - and just memories! (OOoooooooooooohhhhhhhh!)
And it seems like yesterday - it was just a dream!
Those days are gone - and just memories)

[Eminem:]
Khm! Aight! - Let's Pretend Marshall - Mathers never picked up a pen!
Let's pretend - things would've been - no different.
Pretend people procrastinated had no motivation
Pretend - he just made excuses that was so paper thin!
They could blow away with the wind - Marshall you never gone make it,
Makes no sense to play the game it ain't no way that'll 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 wasn't time to move in school no changin' again.
He wasn't socially awakard and just strange as a kid!
He had a father and his mother wasn't crazy as shit,
And he never dreamed he can ripped stadiums he just lazy as shit!
F*ck a talent show in the gymnasium bitch,
You won't amount to shit! Quit day dreaming kid!
You need to get ya cranium check!
You thinking like an alien, it just ain't realistic!
Now pretend - they ain't just make him angry with this shit
And there was no one he could even aim when he's pissed with!
And his alarm went off to wake him but he did'nt make it
To the rap Olympics left to his plane and he missed it!
He's gonna have a hard time explaining
To Hailie and Lainie these food stamps and WIC shit!
Cause he never risked shit! - He hoped and he wished it
But it didn't fall in his lap so he ain't even hear it! - He pretends that!

[Chorus 1]

[Outro: Haylay Williams]
OOoohhhhhhhhhmmmmmmmmmmmmmm-ooooooohhhhhhhh!
OOooooooooohhhhoohhhhhhh!
Hhhhhhmmmmmmmmmmm!
OOooooooooohhhhoohoooohoooohooooohooooohhhhhhh! [beat fades out]
