We Are Defiance Airplanes (feat. Tom Denney)
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
Let's pretend like its '98
Like I'm eatin lunch off of Stryofoam trays
Tryna be the next rapper comin out the A
Hoping for a record deal to ignore my pain
Now let's pretend like I'm on the stage
And when my beat drops, everybody goes insane
And everybody know my name
And everywhere I go, people wanna hear me sing
Oh, yeah, I just dropped my new album
On my first week, I did 500,000
Gold in the spring, and diamond in the fall
And then a world tour just to top it all off
And let's pretend that they call me the greatest
Sellin' out arenas with big-ass stages
And everybody loved me, and nobody hated
Just tryna use imagination
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)
Let's pretend like this never happened
Like I never had dreams of being a rapper
Like I didn't write raps up in all of my classes
Like I never used to run away into the blackness
Now, let's pretend like it was all good
Like I didn't live starin in the notebook
Like I did the things that I prolly knew I should
But I don't have neighbors, that's 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 AKA Bobby Ray
I'm talkin' back before the mixtapes
Before the videos and the deals and the fame
Before they ever once compared me to Andre
Before I ever got on MySpace
Before they ever noticed my face
So let's just pretend
And make 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
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
And it seems like yesterday
It was just a dream
But those days are gone
They're just memories
And it seems like yesterday
It was just a dream
But those days are gone
You look surprised by the look in your eyes I'm still standing
Motherfucker I stand 'cause I'm demanding
Past seven years was just the beginning of my mission
I get to conquer the world from my lifetime of decisions
Leave it to you, to copy all my features
You worship my voice when it comes out your f..cking speakers
'Till the worst happens I keep(?) and I'm collectin'
And I'll take it further and give you what's unexpected
The jealousy that's kept itself boxed up and angry
Or the fact that you saw me in AP (haha)
I'm just confused after every f..cking thing we've been through
It's like I'm just a stranger while some other dude saves you
At first I wasn't mad when you took my name and passed it
And then I started thinking about all the f..cking passion
All the f..cking times that you took my name and cashed it
You wonder why I'm on the other side well that's it
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
