Preachin To The Choir - 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)
