🎶 Paper Gangsta

[A#m]Midnight rush with a pen in my hand.
[F#]Inkin' Lincoln, [F#add2]sand-script with a fan.
[G#]Remembering me before we began.
[Fm]Sometimes I feel so [Fm7]Def in the Jam.
But the [A#m]ones who loved me, told me to stop.
Like [F#]homegirl can't catch [F#add2]shit if it drops.
A [G#]superwoman chick, you know that I am.
Some [Fm]shit don't fly by [Fm7]me in a man.

'Cuz [A#m]I do not [F#]accept any [F#add2]less than someone [G#]just as real, as [Fm][Fm7]fabulous.

Don't want no paper [A#m]gangsta.
Won't sign away my [F#]life to someone who's got the [G#]flavor but don't got no [Fm]follow through.
Don't want no paper [A#m]gangsta.
Won't sign no monkey [F#]papers.
I don't do funny [G#]business.
Not interested in [Fm]fakers.
Don't want no paper [A#m]gangsta.
Uh [F#]oh
Don't want no paper [G#]gangsta.
Uh [Fm]oh
Don't want no paper [A#m][F#]gangsta.
Don't want no paper [G#][Fm]gangsta.

[A#m]Got something really shiny to start.
Want [F#]me to sign there on your [F#add2]Range Rover heart?
I've [G#]heard it before
Yeah, the dinners were nice.
'Till [Fm]your diamond words melted [Fm7]into some ice.
You [A#m]should have been rapping to the beat of my song Mr. [F#]California,
Paper [F#add2]gangsta and I'm [G#]looking for love, not an empty page.
Full of [Fm]stuff that means nothing but [Fm7]"You've been played."

'Cuz [A#m]I do not [F#]accept any [F#add2]less than someone [G#]just as real, as [Fm][Fm7]fabulous.
