Verse 1:
In that rush with a pen in my hand,
Dinkin', Linkin', Stay in script with the band,
Rememberin' me before we began,
Sometimes I feel so deaf in the jam,
But the ones who loved me told me to stop,
Like home girl can't catch it if it dropped,
I'm stickin' with it,
yeah, you know that I am,
Some shit don't fly by me and the man,

Pre-Chorus:
Cuz I do not accept any less,
than someone just as real as fabulous,

Chorus:
Don't want no paper gangsta,
Won't sign away my life to,
someone who's got the flavour,
but don't have no follow through,
don't want no paper gangsta,
won't sign no monkey papers,
I don't do funny business,
not interested in fakers,
Don't want no paper gangsta (Oh oooh),
Don't want no paper gangsta (Oh oooh),
Don't want no paper gangsta,
Don't want no paper gangsta.

Verse 2:
I want something very shiny to start,
want me to sign here on your range rover art,
I've heard it before,
yeah, the dinner's were nice,
'til your diamond words melted into some ice,
you should've been wrapped to the beat of my song,
Mr. California, paper gangstera,
I'm lookin' for love on an empty page,
full of stuff that means nothin' but your pimplade.

Pre-Chorus:
Cuz I do not accept any less,
than someone just as real as fabulous.

Chorus:
Don't want no paper gangsta,
Won't sign away my life to,
someone who's got the flavour,
but don't have no follow through,
don't want no paper gangsta,
won't sign no monkey papers,
I don't do funny business,
not interested in fakers,
Don't want no paper gangsta (Oh oooh),
Don't want no paper gangsta (Oh oooh),
Don't want no paper gangsta,
Don't want no paper gangsta.

(Oh oooooooh yeah)x3

Chorus:
Don't want no paper gangsta,
Won't sign away my life to,
someone who's got the flavour,
but don't have no follow through,
don't want no paper gangsta,
won't sign no monkey papers,
I don't do funny business,
not interested in fakers,
Don't want no paper gangsta,
Won't sign away my life to,
someone who's got the flavour,
but don't have no follow through,
don't want no paper gangsta,
won't sign no monkey papers,
I don't do funny business,
not interested in fakers,
Don't want no paper gangsta,
