Like I said in my first story I was helping a woman,
She thinks I was very brave, only for me being twelve.
I am a sixth grader at a middle school named Macklin,
This is the story of a girl that stole my heart oh I’ll tell.
Sit back and listen to this one it’s good,
And you all don’t be misunderstood.
Once I walked as a Macklin Terrier from these hallways,
I hope to have the best days.
I can’t have it all oh what did I do to deserve this?
Of course, I can’t be the best at this test.
Hurry all! Hurry fast!
I can’t be late for my first-period class.
There once was this girl in my class and she’s pretty,
I wanna have her and wanna have her date me.
Property of Zander I say to my friends,
I can’t tell you how it begins nor ends.
I am the best at what I really do,
My love for her is nothing compared to you.
This isn’t about another girl alright?
My finest love for her, she’s mine tonight.
Chase me if you can!
I can’t ruin this trusting.
Please don’t ruin my ego,
Oh, she’ll be mine I wanna have you know.
This girl I like is named…
And there’s no one to be blamed.
Her name is Malika,
And I wanna have you meet her.
There’s nothing sweeter than her,
Trust me, this is thy word.
Am I the one for her anyway?
I wanna have your opinion and a say.
Trapped in a world of love,
I’ll pray to god for her love.
All this pain in the world of mysterious love crushes,
The love may leave you in crutches.
I’m saying it’ll crush you into pieces and you’ll cry,
Don’t ever ask the world why.
Even though I was her only one,
My love and what has she become?
I will date you, Malika Travis!
Man, this will make me a savage.
All my friends will agree,
Malika you belong with me!
I may be Zander Minox but that doesn’t stop there,
Boy, what have I’ve done to even care?
I once had a girl, or should I say she once had me,
My love for Malika is driving me crazy.
I love her and she’s the one oh boy!
I just wanna be there for her all day.
Am I the one to overcome?
There’s no such thing to me is dumb.
What have I’ve become?
Now, this girl is playing these games.
Overdoing this love for her is crazy,
Malika baby, what have you’ve done to me?
Now that Malika and I are dating from me asking,
All my friends ask me how it all began to happen.
I tell them that I had the guts to ask her out,
Now they think I’m the best, and I say peace now!
