"Provider" lyrics

(Hey)
Woke up, I had the same clothes on
I had on last night
(Damn) I must have passed out
(Wake up, baby)
And cash is just like the clothes I worn yesterday
We are broke
(Damn) I gotta get my ass out
(So) I went to see what my friend was talking about (Drugs)
He told me cocaine could get you clout (Oh)
My momma said he's trouble and school's my route (Oh)
But I went to high school and got kicked out (Yeah)
So I'm driving this truck down 95 (Woop)
I pray to God I make it home alive (Yeah)
I don't get pulled over by the man (Damn)
I just want to make it home to hold your hand

Goodbye, beloved one
Do you know what I am?
If you don't see my face no more
I'm a provider, girl gotta face the streets tonight
(Ay) Uh-uh uh-uh-uh
Goodbye, beloved one
Do you know what I am?
If you don't see my face no more
I'm a rider, girl gotta face the streets tonight
Uh-uh uh-uh-uh

You say you don't want me to go, but I have to (I gotta go)
Please, don't weep (Ay)
I love you (Don't cry)
I refuse to be a bum (Nah)
Especially coming where I'm from (Shit)
I'm a provider, girl
And I love you
(Hey) (Hey)
So it's just like I said before (Uh)
I'm heading down 95, dodging Johnny law (Shit)
I don't need a ticket, though I never got one
If he pulls me over, he gon' feel my shotgun (Watch out)
I think about life, pull down my hat (Damn)
Tears just like this road, I don't know where I'm at (Where am I?)
I don't want to be another cocaine story
Will I find my sanity where I find my glory?
Come on

Goodbye, beloved one
Do you know what I am?
If you don't see my face no more
I'm a provider, girl gotta face the streets tonight
(Listen, baby) Uh-uh uh-uh-uh (Baby)
Goodbye, beloved one
Do you know what I am?
If you don't see my face no more
I'm a rider, girl gotta face the streets tonight
(Hey) Uh-uh uh-uh-uh

Someday (Someday)
This will be over (Over)
We'll raise a family (Family)
I'll get a job, and I'll be a voter (Voter)
And if I die, (No, no, no) (Hey)
It may change you (Change you)
I'll watch over our family (Family)
But only as an angel (Angel)
So, don't tell me you don't know what you see
When you're looking at a motherfucker just like me
I'm a provider, girl (I love you)
(Hey, listen)
I said don't tell me you don't know what you see
When you're looking at a motherfucker just like me
I'm a rider, girl (yeah, oh)
(Hey, baby)

Goodbye, beloved one
Do you know what I am?
If you don't see my face no more
I'm a provider, girl gotta face the streets tonight
(I gotta go) Uh-uh uh-uh-uh
Goodbye, beloved one
Do you know what I am?
If you don't see my face no more
I'm a rider, girl (I love you, baby) gotta face the streets tonight
(I'll be back. Listen)
(Some day)

I love you, girl
I'm doing this for us
I don't know any better
What am I supposed to do?
Don't cry
I love you
