¶ … Lyrics for the Song, Your Reasons for Choosing it, And the Source Information
The song that was chosen is titled Airplanes by B.O.B. The lyrics are, "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. Yeah, I could use a dream or a genie or a wish. To go back to a place much simpler than this. 'Cause after all the partyin' and smashin' and crashin'. And all the glitz and the glam and the fashion. And all the pandemonium and all the madness. There comes a time where you fade to the blackness
And when you starin' at that phone in your lap. And you hopin' but them people never call you back. But that's just how the story unfolds. You get another hand soon after you fold. And when your plans unravel in the sand. What would you wish for if you had one chance? So airplane, airplane, sorry I'm late I'm on my way so don't close that gate. If I don't make that then I'll switch my flight. And I'll be right back at it by the end of the night. 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. Yeah, somebody take me back to the days. Before this was a job, before I got paid. Before it ever mattered what I had in my bank
Yeah, back when I was tryin' to get a tip at subway. And back when I was rappin' for the hell of it. But nowadays we rappin' to stay relevant. I'm guessin' that if we can make some wishes out of airplanes. Then maybe, oh, maybe I'll go back to the days. Before the politics that we call the...
And back when ain't nobody listened to my mix tape. And back before I tried to cover up my slang. But this is for the hater, what's up, Bobby Ray. So can I get a wish to end the politics?
And get back to the music that started this shit. So here I stand, and then again I say I'm hopin' we can make some 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. I could really use a wish right now I, I, I could really use a wish right now. Like shooting stars. A wish, a wish right now." ("Airplane Lyrics") This song stands out based upon the experiences I had in overcoming adversity and trying to make something more out of my life. It also is demonstrating the challenges you will face when trying to do more. Yet, nothing is certain and there are many obstacles associated with living the dream.
