I try to get text from label provider when I create an EObjectDescription. But in the label provider, I resolve some cross-reference to get the object. Based on the object I get, I obtain some information which is used to form the text string.

This strategy will cause "Cyclic resolution of lazy links".

What can I do to solve this problem?

Shell I not access label provider when EObjectDescription is created or not resolve any cross-reference in the label provider implementation?

As the label provider is an UI service and the IEObjctDescriptions are
also available in an non-UI scenario, this sounds like a bad idea.

Have you tried customizing the IQualifiedNameProvider instead?
