The Provider

from Rise Above it All by Genuine Crude

about

Thing’s didn’t work out as you planned, it never does, so if washing dishes is what it takes, put your head down and start scrubbing.

lyrics

In everyone's life there comes a time
To reassess and redefine
The clock on the wall will never rewind
Everyone has a moment
And this is mine

Where are the answers
My future would hold
My mind plays tricks on me
I feel younger than old

If the race is over
Then where do I run
Am I a survivor
Or swept under the rug
Now washing dishes at sixteen was fine
I'm the provider
Provided the time


Where did I go wrong what have I become
If this is me am I already done?
May these words that I write live on
And serve to remind me
Of where I've come from


I am forgetful
Of the stories that I've told
My mind still plays tricks on me
Probably more than I know


If the race is over
Then where do I run
Am I a survivor
Or swept under the rug
Now I'll do what it takes giving you words that rhyme
I'm the provider
Provided the time
