Faithful lyrics
(feat. Bilal, John Legend)

[sample] Faithful to thee
[Common] We got to be
[sample] Faithful to thee
[Common] I want to be
[sample] Faithful to thee
[Common] Yes, its for the people, God moves, yeah

[Verse 1]
I was rollin around, in my mind it occurred
What if God was a her?
Would I treat her the same? Would I still be runnin game on her?
In what type of ways would I want her?
Would I want her for her mind or her heavenly body?
Couldn t be out gettin bogus with someone so godly
If I was wit her would I still be wantin my ex?
The lies, the greed, the weed, the sex
Wouldn t be ashamed to give her part of my check
Wearin her cross, I mean the heart on my neck
Her I would reflect on the streets of the Chi
Ride wit her, cause I know for me she d die
Through good and bad call on her like I m chirpin her
Couldn t be jealous cause other brothers worship her
Walk this earth for her, glory, I m grateful
To be in her presence I try to stay faithful

[Chorus]
[sample] Faithful to thee
[sample] Faithful to thee
[sample] Faithful to thee
[sample] I d like to be her very best friend

[Verse 2]
He worked with her, she was his lady s best friend
Even if they don t try some ladies test men
And this was a test that was bigger than him
Some believe its the nature that is given to men
He had a good gig, a wife, a kid, a decent home
One reason or another couldn t find peace at home
She asked, "Why do men always have to stray?"
He said, "I m bad, not as bad as Eric Benet"
"I used to take em out to eat but they wasn t really eatin
Mighta got a little head but I wasn t really cheatin "
It s hard when your lady don t believe what you say
And what you did in the past you gotta live with today
She asked if they could spend the night together
He thought, and said, "I m tryin to get my life together"
Went home to his lady, these were his confessions
"Baby you a blessin and my best friend"

[Chorus]

[Bilal with his voice overlapping] Faithful to thee
[Bilal] Faithful to thee
[John Legend singing]
[John Legend & Bilal] I m gonna be, I m gonna be, I m gonna be so faithful
[John Legend & Bilal] I m gonna be, I m gonna be so faithful

[Repeat 3x]
[Bilal] So
[Bilal] So
[Bilal] So
[John Legend] So
[John Legend] So
[John Legend] So
[John Legend & Bilal] So faithful

[Bilal] So
[Bilal] So
[Bilal] So
[John Legend] So
[John Legend] So
[John Legend & Bilal] That s what I m gonna do
[John Legend] Faithful to the end
[John Legend] That s what I m gonna do
[John Legend] Faithful to the end
[John Legend] That s what I m gonna do
[John Legend] Faithful to the end
[John Legend] Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
