Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like
shooting stars

可否讓我們把夜空裡的飛機們，當作是流星呢？

I could really use a wish right now (wish right now) (wish
right now)

我現在簡直可以許下一個願望，許下一個願望，許下一個願望了。

Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like
shooting stars

可否讓我們把夜空裡的飛機們，當作是流星呢？

I could really use a wish right now (wish right now) (wish
right now)

我現在簡直可以許下一個願望，許下一個願望，許下一個願望了。

Yeah

是阿！

I could use a dream or a genie or a wish to go back to a
place much simpler than this

我僅能藉個夢境或神怪或願望，來回到一個更純淨的時空裡

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’re staring at that phone in your lap and you
hoping but them people never call you back

在那所有的派對轟炸、閃耀、眩目的時尚和所有的嘈雜與瘋狂之後，人們褪進了黑暗裡頭

盯著閒置在腿上的手機期望著，卻總是等不到成名的機會

But that’s just how the story unfolds

但新的故事卻又這麼展開了！

You get another hand soon after you fold and when your
plans unravel

如同你放棄了這一局，下一副牌立即又會出現在你手裡一般

And they sayin’ what would you wish for if you had one
chance

人們開始說著，若是可以實現一個願望的話會許什麼願呢

So airplane airplane sorry I’m late

所以夜空裡的飛機阿，抱歉我晚來了

I’m on my way so don’t close that gate

我已經在路上，所以請別關閉機艙的大門

If I don’t make that then I’ll switch my

而若是我錯過了這班，我將搭乘下一班飛機

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

在星空裡暢遊，且在這個夜晚即將結束前飛回來

Somebody take me back to the days

把我帶回到從前吧！

Before this was a job, before I got paid before it ever
mattered what I had in my bank

這之前我有個工作，有份薪水，珍惜著銀行裡的每一分錢

Yeah back when I was tryin’ to get a tip at subway

是阿，回到我過去在Subway領小費的日子吧

And back when I was rappin’ for the hell of it but now a
days we rappin’ to stay relevant

那時我是用生命在唱著饒舌歌曲的，不像現在只是為了維持名望而出片

I’m guessin that if we can make some wishes outta airplanes
then maybe yo maybe I’ll go back to the days

我想如果真的能向夜空裡的飛機許願的話，也許我會希望回到過去的日子

Before the politics that we call the rap game and back when
ain’t nobody listened to my mix tape and back before I tried to cover up my
slang but this is decatur, what’s up Bobby Ray

在我們還沒有所謂的饒舌遊戲但實際上是行銷的策略、在那沒有人願意聽我自製的錄音帶和在我不需要為了市場而掩飾我故鄉的腔調的日子

So can I get a wish to end the politics and get back to the
music that started this shit

這樣的話，我就可以中止這個行銷遊戲，回歸到音樂的最初了

So here I stand and then again I say

所以在這裡我想再說一次

I’m hopin’ we can make some wishes outta airplanes

我希望我們可以向夜空裡的飛機們，許下些心中願望
