I Can'T Always Save You

You always call on me to save you But I can't be here for when the next man breaks you I've got my own problems and have to make it through my Maze too I'm sorry but I can't always save you I'm tired of putting people first who treat me as second best So I'm focusing on myself more and them less If that makes me selfish and arrogant then so be it But I'm a man of my word and will never expose secrets I've came to realise you have to watch who you're around I pulled people out of the water just for them to throw me in to drown The sharks smelt my blood, But a survivor will always find a way to survive You have to kill your fear in order to stay alive I played enough girls when I was young, so I guess it's karma for you to be playing me By being grateful and respectful is how you should be repaying me But instead you always want more and take advantage That's why I'm focusing on myself and won't be here for your next panic You think just because you're pretty I'll be on call and wait Ssdly for you, I've realised I deserve better than being put in second place You took advantage of my kind nature, so now you're on your own I've realised I'm a king and I won't be dethroned You showed no gratitude when I was always there to save you Funny how I helped you escape your problems, When I needed to escape you I've got to make it through my own maze too Sorry But I won't be there to save you
