Preachin To The Choir Lyrics - The Million Dollar Backpack - Skillz

Uh, now here's a little story that must be told 

By the unsaved man who lost and found his soul 

It's a classic love ballad, those never get old 

Let's piece together the tale of Sean and Nicole 

A picture perfect couple in the eyes of they peers 

Been together for eight, but only married for four years 

Had one kid, both was true to their own 

Just moved to the 'burbs and bought a beautiful home 

Now Sean had a gift and for years he use it 

He was an R & B singer, sang secular music 

Nicole worked in the daycare, she loved the kids 

Had a nice income, but it never could match his 

Now Sean stayed on the road, his schedule was crazy 

Nicole spent a lot of nights at home with the baby 

And this night in question, while out on tour 

Sean made a mistake, she'd never forgive him for 

But it's more

We all hit the bottom but He can get us higher 

The end of the day, we all sinners and liars 

The truth is somebody's gonna burn in the fire 

What's sad is, you probably think I'm preaching to the choir 

Nicole was heartbroken, crazy sick 

She had proof that he had stepped out of relationship 

Sean was a hero, but after that circumstance 

He was just a man who couldn't keep the shit in his pants 

All her girlfriends said she was crazy to stay 

"If it was me girl, I'd of left his ass that day" 

Nicole stayed and forgave, made up her mind 

Now it's five years later and everything's going fine 

They did some soulsearchin, cause their love was worth it 

But it's work though, cause no relationship is perfect 

Nicole struggled, she was down and up 

Some days she loved him, other days she hated his guts 

Sean didn't know, she never told him the deal 

He just kept singin, cause that's what was payin the bills 

Livin in denial, that's a bad place to live 

Nicole told him she forgave him, but she never really did

Some time had past, while Nicole still struggled 

Stressed over work, competin with the average couple 

She was faithful, even after Sean crossed the line 

When he was gone, she found ways to occupy her time 

You'll never find what's missin, if you don't search 

She started goin to the gym, then she joined the church 

The experience she said, it took her higher 

After six months of Sundays, she joined the choir 

And when Sean came home, she threw him a curve 

Said to come to church with her, so he could hear the word 

They went to sleep that night, but when they prayed 

For the first time he felt bad about the music he made 

That following Saturday, Sean had a show 

And it was 9 AM when he stumbled up to the door 

And the house was empty though, he couldn't find his key 

Drunk, gun was on him and he smelled like weed 

February 14th and he forget to bring 

Flowers and he told Nicole he'd come here and sing 

So he walked in the church a half hour late 

Uncomfortable, stood in the back, cause he couldn't find space 

He just stood on the wall, rockin back and forth 

The preacher preached about tryin to get right with the Lord 

So he thought about his life and thought about his wife 

And how short the walk was to get right with Christ 

He looked up at Nicole as she started to cry 

Seein her like that just brought tears to his eyes 

The whole church started starin at Sean so hard 

Thinkin this man is about to give his life to God 

It's a guy in the choir, about to sing a song 

Walked past Nicole, but their body language was wrong 

Sean was feelin some way, something wasn't right 

He started starin at the guy and how he's lookin at his wife 

His heart started beatin, he's ready to flip his wig 

Thinkin my wife ain't the type to do the things I did 

The truth would have you floored 

The man was married, sleepin with Nicole and there they stood both singin to the Lord 

Damn (damn, damn)
