We got to be, we got to be

We got to be, I want to be

We got to be, yes, it's for the people

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 *** 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 We got to be

We got to be

We got to be

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" We got to be

We got to be

We got to be

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, so faithful

So, so, so, so, so, so, so faithful

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
