I Like Him

Dear diary
I met a boy today
He said his name was Raymond
But his friends call him Ray
Really cute, nice swag, kinda tall
He told me that he hoop
But he don't look like he play ball

He asked me for my number, I said no
My parents real strict
And I'm for sho' they ain't gone go
I'm thinkin', man
All the girls like him
So I tell him:
"We can chat, hit me up on A.I.M."

I like him
I like him
I like him
But daddy said I can't have no boyfriend
I can't have no boyfriend
I can't have no boyfriend
I can't have no boyfriend

He said he want me to focus on my schoolwork
He said them boys ain't gon' do nothin'
But mess my head up
But I like him
I like him
I like him
I like him

We instant message back and forth
He told me to meet him up at the basketball court
And I'm like, "Okay, but I'm bringing my girls with me"
And all of a sudden momma busts in the door quickly

She look at the screen and say
"Who you chatting with?"
"Nobody"
Now she reading the screen like
"So who is Ray?"
"Nobody"
"Oh, he somebody
You know your dad come in at four"
"Momma, please don't tell daddy
I ain't gon' talk to Ray no more"

Now I'm sittin in my room
Waiting for dad to come home
She took my iPad
Can't let Ray know what's going on
We never exchanged numbers
Can't call him on the phone
Now I see why my friends say
They can't wait till they get grown

I'm checking the clock and it's five minutes till four
I'm starting to get nervous, constantly chasing the floor
And then I thought, "Wait what am I in trouble for?"
But it all came back to me when dad
Came walking through the door

I like him
I like him
I like him
But daddy said I can't have no boyfriend
I can't have no boyfriend
I can't have no boyfriend
I can't have no boyfriend

He said he want me to focus on my schoolwork
He said them boys ain't gon' do nothin'
But mess my head up
But I like him
I like him
I like him
I like him

"Daddy wait, I gotta confession to make
I know you ain't gon' like this but I met a boy named Ray
He's never disrespected me, he's very smart in school
I don't know
There's something about this boy reminds me of you"

"Daddy wait, I gotta confession to make
I know you ain't gon' like this but I met a boy named Ray
He's never disrespected me, he's very smart in school
I don't know
There's something about this boy reminds me of you"

I like him
I like him
I like him
But daddy said I can't have no boyfriend
I can't have no boyfriend
I can't have no boyfriend
I can't have no boyfriend

He said he want me to focus on my schoolwork
He said them boys ain't gon' do nothin'
But mess my head up
But I like him
I like him
I like him
I like him
