I fly like paper, get high like planes
If you catch me at the border, I got visas in my name
If you come around here, I make 'em all day
I get one done in a second if you wait

Sometimes I think sittin' on trains
Every stop I get to, I'm clocking that game
Everyone's a winner, we're making our fame
Bona fide hustler making my name

Pirate skulls and bones
Sticks and stones and weed and bongs
Running when we hit 'em
Lethal poison for the system

No one on the corner has swagger like us
Hit me on my burner prepaid wireless
We pack and deliver like UPS trucks
Already going to hell, just pumping that gas

I really dig this song, I know its from the 2000's but it reminds me a lot of 80's pop songs like 99 Luftballons or Dont Dream Its Over, songs from weird foreign lands with a somewhat different kinda vibe that became big hits in America
 
It's pretty good, but I still think her debut album is the best thing she ever released

 
It's ok...6/10 - not my fave, but I can respect it.

I don't drink much these days, but a Paper Plane is my go-to cocktail when the occasion arises (and yes, its creator apparently named it after the song lol).
 
Amongst my favorites. Opening sample is from Straight to Hell by The Clash. Alexa Grasso uses Paper Planes as her walkout song. Gets me hyped. I love the remixes too.
