Lyrics
Bein' a provider is really all he was tryna do
But it ain't that easy when there's no meat and you don't got no food
On the table during meals, man he needed dollar bills
To come up, stick 'em up, he go out and rob and steal
Lookin' for new ways to get paid everyday
Fell victim to the system, he threw his freedom away
For the cake, never thought he'd be caught
Up in the rap shit like Anita Baker
Lookin' back at it, the things he would do for a clean slate
Walk away while you can, the money is quicksand
You can free your mind, it's all part of the plan, come on
Ooh, no it's not the way it was supposed to be
Ooh, you got no one else to blame
Ooh, the money that he promised was a fantasy
Ooh, you can always walk away
Put her life on the line everyday, tryna make a way
For her family sellin' her body, hopin' that one day
They could see a better place
Even though she knew that what she was
Doin' wasn't safe, it didn't matter
Dealin' with a pimp that would beat her and slap her
Dealt with pain that you couldn't even fathom
By lookin' at her, she had a heart of gold
Years later down the road
She came down with somethin' worse than
Your common cold, she was never told
Walk away while you can, the money is quicksand
You can free your mind, it's all part of the plan, come on
Ooh, no it's not the way it was supposed to be
Ooh, you got no one else to blame
Ooh, the money that he promised was a fantasy
Ooh, you can always walk away
All your hopes led you to wonderland
Only to find your life on the street
Take the straight and narrow road
Be strong, don't let go
Don't let anyone trample your dreams
You can always walk away
Walk away, walk away
You can walk away, you can just walk away
Oh walk away, oh walk away
Just walk away
Ooh, no it's not the way it was supposed to be
Ooh, you got no one else to blame
Ooh, the money that he promised was a fantasy
Ooh, you can always walk away
In the morning time things'll be fine, gotta free your mind
Break free of the bonds and chains that have you gone
Good God shed his mercy, life water you thirsty
Make your way home, let 'em tell me you heard me
Come on, come on
Ooh, no it's not the way it was supposed to be
Ooh, you got no one else to blame
Ooh, the money that he promised was a fantasy
Ooh, you can always walk away
