The Double G - Airplanes, pt. 3 [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Hook: 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

[Verse 1: The Double G]

Let’s pretend I’m really writing this song
Up in a fancy studio like nothing was ever wrong
Let’s pretend this life gave me everything I need
And all I do is rap, drink, fuck and smoke weed
Let’s pretend that success comes without greed, yeah!
Cuz otherwise how the fuck am I to navigate
When I’m down they scorn me – when I’m up they gon’ hate
Let’s pretend my parents never gone separate ways
Say I got a family like back in those days
Mum never had cancer it was just a nightmare
And she wasn’t so sedated not to know I was there
And she never lost her job, her weight and her hair!
And I didn’t get busted from college, right?
And I didn’t need pills just to sleep at night
Let’s say my girl didn’t dump me that very day
Like I didn’t feel suicidal enough anyway…

[Hook]

[Verse 2: The Double G]

Let’s pretend you don’t know the end of this story
Get back to a place so dark and lonely
Let’s say I never wanted to jump off a bridge
Let’s say it never felt like I wouldn’t be missed, huh
When your heart is empty and your life’s torn
And you only wish you hadn’t ever been born
See rap was the only way to escape
And it drew them emotions back on my face
The first one of all to come back was hate
And I welcomed it like my closest mate
I hated everything, the birds and bees
Girls and the world and the seven seas
It infected me, like some disease
And I wasn’t gonna rest till I rest in peace
And even though my life’s now warm and safe
I will never forget the price I paid

[Hook]
