Provider (Live)

Woke up, I had the same clothes on I had on last night I must have passed out And cash is just like the clothes I worn yesterday We are broke, I gotta get my ass out I went to see what my friend was talking about He told me cocaine could get you clout My momma said he's trouble and school's my route But I went to high school and got kicked out So I'm driving this truck down 95 I pray to God I make it home alive I don't get pulled over by the man 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 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 You say you don't want me to go, but I have to Please, don't weep, I love you I refuse to be a bum Especially coming where I'm from I'm a provider, girl, and I love you So it's just like I said before Heading down 95, dodging Johnny law I don't need a ticket, though I never got one If he pulls me over, he gon' feel my shotgun I think about life, pull down my hat It's just like this road, I don't know where I'm at 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 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 Someday, this will be over We'll raise a family I'll get a job, and I'll be a voter And if I die, it will change you I'll watch over our family But only as an 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 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 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 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 I love you, girl I'm doing this for us I don't know any better What am I supposed to do Nothing, I love you
