Common, John Legend, Bilal - Faithful lyrics

Faithful to the end (we got to be)
Faithful to the end (I want to be)
Faithful to the end
(yes, it's for the people)
I'd like to be her very best friend
(God moves, yeah)

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

Faithful to the end faithful to the end
Faithful to the end
I'd like to be her very best friend

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 it's 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"

Faithful to the end faithful to the end
Faithful to the end
I'd like to be her very best friend

Faithful to the end faithful to the end
I'm gonna be, I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be so faithful
I'm gonna be, I'm gonna be so faithful
So, so, so so, so, so
So faithful so, so, so
So, so, so 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 yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
