Little White Lie

I started talking to you 
Cause you was flirting with me
I like your voice 
You said mine was sexy 
If I remember correctly
You kept telling me you wanted to meet 
You saw a picture of me 
But I never saw you
Does he know I’m like his age divided by two?
Cause he old enough to hang wit my pops’ crew
What do I do?
Do I just talk to you? 
Yeah cause I like you
I’m getting to know you
And you feelin me too
Privately I write to you
I thought you knew I was a young’n
Now I bet I’ll never speak to you again
Just because of the decade I was born in 
Tell me something I’m legal  
So is this attraction a sin
You could marry me 
And I’d be fine with it
You could leave me alone
And I wouldn’t mind it.
