[English]

Come on, babe, so whatcha gonna do?

Tell your mama, gonna ride it on through

You walk on splinters, be sleepin' on nails

Come on, let your hair down, run it over the rails

Get up, babe

Bring it down

Let me see your paper crown

Get up, babe

Bring it down

Let me see your paper crown

I wanna see the paper crown

Then let me see you shake your body to the ground

I'll be your king with a paper crown

Then let me see you shake your body to the ground (look out)

Save yourself, ya walking through the room

Shadow-boxing, come and see my girl

She's a rainbow, never need to smile

Like throwin' candy on a funeral fire

Come on

Get up, babe

Bring it down

Let me see your paper crown

Get up, babe

Bring it down

Let me see your paper crown

I'll be your king with a paper crown

And let me see you shake your body to the ground

I'll be your king with a paper crown

And let me see you shake your body to the ground

Yes sir

With this paper I go dumb, froze both arms

Might got frostbite 'cause my neck feel numb

Pointers 'round my neck, she say I gotta lot of charm

Type of money make a bougie broad wanna feel my pawn

Thick and it's warm, like grits in the morn

Got two things in common, that's my bitch and my foreign

Everything exotic, we got chronic so the vibe's right

Got that type of ass that can really give the blind sight

If you wanna see (wanna see it, wanna see)

This paper crown (you wanna see it, wanna see)

I need you to see you (yeah, let me see it)

Shake your body to the ground (let me see it, let me see it, let me see)

(Ay) if you wanna see (yeah, you wanna see it, you wanna see it)

My paper crown (ay, you wanna see it, you wanna see it)

I need to see you (let me see it, let me see it)

Shake your body to the ground

Your momma should be proud how you entertain the crowd

But if you look at me too long, you might be with child

Ay, I might buy the Birkin if she worth the bag (yes)

Mix it with the hash, take a puff and pass (yes)

Go and bounce that ass, go and bounce that ass (mhm)

Loan paper cash is through that nigga's stash (mhm)

Strong tank of gas, flame this up, get blasted

She treat Meek like me, she 'bout to blow me fast (mhm)

Yeah, you wanna see it, wanna see it

Yeah, let me see it

Let me see it, let me see it, let me see it

Ay, yeah

If you wanna see (wanna see it, wanna see)

This paper crown (you wanna see it, wanna see)

I need you to see you (yeah, let me see it)

Shake your body to the ground (let me see it, let me see it, let me see)

(Ay) if you wanna see (yeah, you wanna see it, you wanna see it)

My paper crown (ay, you wanna see it, you wanna see it)

I need to see you (let me see it, let me see it)

Shake your body to the ground
