B.o.B - Airplanes (Part II) Lyrics
[Hayley 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 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
Dreaming of falling
Dreaming of falling
[B.o.B:]
(Ya) Ya let's pretend like it's '98 (98)
Like I'm eating lunch off of Styrofoam trays (ya)
Trying to be the next rapper coming out the A (A-town)
Hoping for a record deal to ignore my pain (yeah)
Now let's pretend like I'm on a stage (stage)
And when my beat drops everybody goes insane (woo)
And everybody know my name (Bob)
And everywhere I go people wanna hear me sing (oh)
Oh yeah and I just dropped my new album
On the first week I did Five-Hundred Thousand (yes)
Gold in the spring and diamond in the fall (okay)
And then a world tour just to top it all off (ah)
And let's pretend like they called me the greatest (yap)
Selling out arenas with big ass stages (ow)
And everybody loved me and no one ever hated (mmhm)
Just try to use imagination
[Hayley 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 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
Okay let's pretend like this never happened (never)
Like I never had dreams of being a rapper (rapper)
Like I didn't write raps up in all of my classes (classes)
Like I never used to run away into the blackness (now)
Now let's pretend like it was all good (good)
Like I didn't live staring in a notebook (notebook)
Like I did the things that I probably knew I should (should)
But I ain'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 call me BOB aka Bobby Ray (Ray)
I'm talking back before the mix-tapes (laugh at)
Before the videos and the deals and the fame (yeah)
Before they ever once (oh oh) compared me to Andre
Before I ever got on myspace (yeah)
Before they ever noticed my face (yeah)
So let's just pretend and make wishes out of airplanes
[Hayley 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 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 (day) it was just a dream
But those days are gone (gone) they're just memories
(Oh oh)
And it seems like yesterday (day) it was just a dream
But those days are gone (gone)
[Eminem:]
Alright let's pretend Marshall Mathers never picked up a pen
Let's pretend things would have been no different
Pretend he procrastinated, had no motivation
Pretend he just made excuses that were so paper thin they could blow away with the wind
Marshall, you're never gonna make it makes no sense to play the game there ain't no way that you'll win
Pretend he just stayed outside all day and played with his friends
Pretend he even had a friend to say was his friend
And it wasn't time to move and schools weren't changing again
He wasn't socially awkward and just strange as a kid
He had a father and his mother wasn't crazy as shit
And he never dreamed he could rip stadiums and just lazy as shit
Fuck a talent show in a gymnasium, bitch, you won't amount to shit quit daydreaming kid
You need to get your cranium checked you thinking like an alien and 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 it
And his alarm went off to wake him but he didn't make it to the Rap Olympics
Slept through his plane and he missed it
He's gon' have a hard time explaining to Hailie and Lainie these food stamps and this 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 here
He pretends that
[Hayley Williams:]
Airplanes in the night sky 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

B.o.B Airplanes (Part II) Comments
Who else only came for the Eminem ft
What a masterpiece. This fits my mindset so perfectly. Mans greatest burden is unfulfilled potential. What if you listened to everybody who told you it wasnt possible. What if you never just tried ? What if you never put your divine gift to use. The universe needs all of our best selfs, this is true greatness. GOATS
is it just me or did B.o.B keep up with Eminem?, I feel like Eminem didn't completely steal the show. The entire song is a masterpiece.
That part where you here em singing the chorus before he goes in is perfect.
First heard this on the radio a few weeks ago. How did I not know about this??
2010 my sophomore year in high school:/
Kevin gates should have been on this
https://youtu.be/_tv0r-8o3cE
Who's there in December 2019?
Now pretend mumble rappers didn’t exist and Biggie and PAC were still alive.
2019 vibes
Time travel goes both ways fights in the past for the core of ways of being more together we may be in war Struggling in the rows loud n proud of being untamed triggers for the traps my maps are hits ding dong ditch kicking the can in the driveway of black friends being in the way of being a med bet u wouldn't of figured it our with out the subscription being unprotected by the gods u know worshiping the only guys who know me well enough to pull me home
This was a great song until 3:14
Then it became LEGENDARY!
its been 10 years
On a nostalgia trip to end the decade...
Getting excited asf when you heard this come on the radio then turning to another station once you realise its not the version with eminem on it
Almost 2020. Who made it this far?
Like ys
♥️♥️♥️
This song bangs
Eminem tira da alma mano slk nunca achei que esse fosse o Eminem!
🎼🐬
They can blow way wind Marshall your never gonna make it 🌬️💨🌴🤘
2019 who still listening?
EM its best than 2pac
Imagine if Em never picked up a pen. He has helped many people including myself
Weird that B.O.B. would waste ALL that money on an Em feature just to not release it as the single. Guessing he pussied out because Em swore too much & the radio would butcher the verse.
Thank god Marshall Mathers picked up a pen.
how still listens in 2019
3:11 best transition ever imo it beats homicides transition
I wish she didnt sing it like STAHRRZ
Could someone post the time when Eminem's verse starts?
The nostalgia bro
Who's still listening Dec 2019? ❤️🙌
Youre not alone
"Lets pretend, Marshall Mathers never picked up a pen" Hell no. You either eat it all or cut the crust off. Not the other way round.
Can we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky
Is 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 eating lunch off of Styrofoam trays
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 I'm 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 yea and I just dropped my new album
On the first week I did five hundred thousand
Gold in the spring and diamond in the fall
And then a world tour just to top it all off
And let's pretend like they call me the greatest
Selling out arenas with big ass stages
And everybody loved me and no one ever hated
Let's try to use imagination
Can we pretend that airplanes
In the night sky
Is 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)
Okay, let's pretend like this never happened
Like I never had dreams of being a rapper
Like I didn't write raps in all of my classes
Like I never used to runaway into the blackness
Now let's pretend like it was all-good
Like I didn't live starring in a notebook
Like I did the things I probably knew I should
But I didn'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 a.k.a Bobby Ray
I'm talking 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 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
Is 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 yesterday it was just a dream
But those days are gone)
Let's pretend Marshall Mathers never picked up a pen
Let's pretend things would've been no different
Pretend he procrastinated, had no motivation
Pretend he just made excuses that
Was so paper thin they could blow away wit 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 changing again
He wasn't socially awkward 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
Fuck 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 didn't make it to the rap Olympics
He slept through his plane and he missed it
He's gonna have a hard time explaining to Haley and Laney these food stamps and W-I-C 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
Airplanes
In the night sky
Is 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)

April 2018 Eminem Video ☝️
When we was listening to this song in my chemistry class. When eminem verse came on the teacher changed I was like aww man.
Right before the end of the decade
Let's pretend America was at its prime time and eminem was president. . .till I die
Ems music will always give me a feeling of happniess and sadness at the same time. I remember listening em as a kid now im sad because when I was a kid I just liked the music because my dad walked out on me as a kid. But now I dont just like the lyrics. I understand them. And that's what makes me sad.
Why am I just discovering this version in 2019?? This is way better than the original!
Yp i also found this one in jan ...same way im shocked
This song is trash without marshall
I love this song it is my favorite and I listen to this when i am sad and I need a friend please im so lonely this song is my only escape from reality and it makes me feel like superman or spiderman please someone talk to me i am crying on the inside
I searched this cause of EM
In a song about dreaming, wishing and the isolation of hard life, the lines that hit hardest are "but I ain't have neighbors, that's why they call it hood" and "Fuck a talent show in the gymnasium bitch. You won't amount to shit, quit daydreaming kid. You need to get your cranium checked, you're thinking like an alien it just ain't realistic." because it's what too many people from all walks of life get told and inevitably believe. From social status to unsupportive environments and even family, it's far too easy for anyone to fall victim to their influence on accomplishing even the smallest steps to happiness.
That is what makes the most impact in this track. Not the hope of motivation, but the fear that in reality, it's a world devoid of hope and that the ones who tell you to quit are right.
Only OG people know about this version.
Who the fuck compared him to andre
Pretend he never robbed a 5 year old for some other lazy fuckboys
pretend he was leeched to death
is this song still good in 2K19!!!
Only just found this wow!
Huge respect for Eminem, the way he puts lyrics down the paper and fires it from his lips, no one can ever do that!
This song still lit af 👌🔥💯
When you like everypart not just Marshall mathers
2019 and still listening to this
Eminem made this part way better than the first part 😍😍😍😍
Who is here after de rihhana n chris brown drama eminem said
Em’s verse is way too unrated!! When in hip hop history has a featuring artist flipped the concept in such a way?!!...NEVER!!! He spat pure 🔥! No gimmicks, just lyrics!
•Word play 10/10,
•meaningful lyrics 10/10,
•delivery 10/10
•flipping the script 20/10!
This verse deffo puts Em in a top 5 convo! #realtalk
Ems verse makes this hit hard
Holy Crap Marshall verse is deep and relatable.
Boom 💥
Lmfao feel the same way every time I hear this song as I did when this came out when I was 16. Lol damn.
This song was decent for a older slim shady
Fuck me 10 years ago I used to listen to this just kicked out on the streets haha how far I've came since then.
B.o.b and Eminem killed it huge song
Marshall u r god!❤❤
Let's pretend, Marshall Mathers never picked up a pen, pretend he even had a pen to pick up a pen

If Eminem was in ur song it would go famous for sure
I love u Eminem
Eminem really Spicing it.
,,,and it seems like yesterday
Was just a dream,
but those days are gone
they’re just memories...😢😢
To be fair this whole song is fire not just Eminems part even though ems is the best verse b.o.b had great verses and hayleys voice is great
Pretend all these new mamble rappers never showed!! pretend that music is still music,
Who here in 2k19😂
When music was its best
Hate the way this is the part 2
Does it not piss anyone else off that the non Em version has more views?
“You won’t amount to shit quit daydreaming kid you need to get your cranium checked your thinking like an alien it just ain’t realistic” Damn I felt that shit

And everybody know my name (B.o.B)
And everywhere I go people wanna hear me sang

And everybody loved me and no one ever hated
Let's try to use imagination

I remember listening to this song back when life was so simple. Brings back good memories
Cadê os BR em 2019?
2019 and so nostalgic..I'm feeling very emotional
Bob thinks the earth is flat... what a fucking loser.
It was nice of Eminem to let BOB and Hayley on his song.
I will be here 2020
Well all here for eminem honestly
Damn this songs really almost 10 years old where tf did time go:(
2007-2010..fuuuckkk..
Eminem is the reason this song is fire
I'm shook every time. This is just so moving.
