In a graphic editor, apply textures to your text layer. Use textures resembling paper, scratches, or dirt. Adjust the layer blending mode (e.g., Multiply, Overlay) to integrate the texture seamlessly. Add subtle noise or grain to the text. You can also use filters to create a worn or faded appearance. Experiment with different colors and opacities to achieve the desired effect. Consider adding small imperfections or irregularities to the letterforms.
