Provider (Zero 7 mix) Lyrics

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 a** out
I went to see what my friend was talking about
He told me cocaine would get you clout
My momma said he"s trouble and schools my route
But I went to high school and got kicked out
So I"m driving this truck down the 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
(x2)

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 b**
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 can 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
(x2)

Someday, 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
Change you
I watch over a family
But only as an angel
So don"t tell me you don"t know what you see
When you"re looking at a m*********** 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 m*********** 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
(x2)

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
