Common - Faithful lyrics
Faithful to the end
(We got to be)
Faithful to the end
(I want to be)
Faithful to the end
I'm like her
Very best friend
Yes, this for the people ... God moves
I was rolling 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 heavnly body
Couldn't be out here 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
Wearing a cross, I mean Her heart on my neck
Her I would refelct
On the streets of the Chi
Ride with her. cause I know for me, she'd die
Though 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
Faithful to the end
Faithful to the end
Faithful to the end
I'm like her
Very best friend
He worked with her
She was this lady's best friend.
Even if they do try, some ladies test men
And this was a test that was bigger than him.
Some believe it's the nature that's givin him in
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, but not as bad as Eric Benet."
I used to take them out to eat
But they weren't really eatin'
Might have got a little head
But I wadn't really cheatin'
It's hard when your lady don't believe what you sayin
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
And these were his confessions
"Baby, you a blessin' and my best friend."
Faithful to the end
Faithful to the end
Faithful to the end
I'm like her
Very best friend
(John Legend & Bilal's ending)
Faithful the end
Faith to the end
I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be
So oh faithful
I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be
So oh faithful
So, so
So, so
So, so
So faithful
So, so
So, so
So, so
So faithful
So, so
So, so
So, so
So faithful
So, so
So, so
So, so
So faithful
That's what I'm gonna do
Faithful to the end
That's what I'm gonna do
Faithful to the end
That's what I'm gonna do
Faithful to the end
That's what I'm gonna do
Faithful to the end
