[Chorus]
(Faithful to the end) Yeah, we got to be
(Faithful to the end) Clap your hands y'all, I wanna be
(Faithful to the end)
(I'd like to be her very best friend)
Clap your hands, uh, yeah
[Interlude]
I wrote this song called "Faithful"
And what it's about, it's about being faithful to the most high God
Creator of all things
See, a lot of people ask me about who God is
You know, all I know is God created the Heavens and the earth
And there's only one God
So, I wrote this song thinking about, 'What if God was a woman?
How would it be? How would we react? How would I react?'
And this is my commitment and my letter to God
And I want y'all to check it out and just listen
Uh, and just clap your hands and listen, check it
[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, other brothers worship her
Walk this earth for her, glory, I'm grateful
To be in her presence, yo, I gotta stay...
[Chorus]
(Faithful to the end) Clap your hands y'all, huh
(Faithful to the end) Yeah, yo, we got to be
(Faithful to the end) We stay faithful y'all, yes
(I'd like to be her very best friend) God bless
Yo, let me tell y'all this story
[Verse 2]
He worked with her, she was his lady's best friend
Even if they don't try, ladies test men
This was a test that was bigger than him
Some believe it's the nature that is given to men
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, they weren'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
What you did in the past you 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"
We gotta stay...
[Chorus]
(Faithful to the end) Go and clap your hands y'all, we got to be
(Faithful to the end) Ah, I wanna stay
(Faithful to the end) Yes, God bless
(I'd like to be her very best friend) Yeah
