Grammy-winning artist Chance the Rapper had one big wish over the weekend: That Wendy’s would bring back its popular spicy chicken nuggets, which the restaurant chain pulled from its menu in 2017.

"Positive Affirmations for today," he tweeted Saturday, "I WILL have a good day, I Will succeed today, Wendy's WILL bring back spicy nuggets at some point please please Lord let it be today."

Wendy’s responded to the Chicago-based rapper’s request with a challenge.

Luckily, Twitter users came to the rescue. Wendy’s tweet surpassed the 2 million like count. As of Monday afternoon, more than 2,132,000 users had hit the love button.

While it’s unclear just when (and for how long) the nuggets will be back, Wendy’s has confirmed their inevitable return.

Thank you, Chance! Don't miss his debut album, Owbum, coming out in July.
