Why Must I Pay For Your Mistakes

Why do I have to pay for your life mistakes?
Your mistakes guarantee for me nothing but set backs, not having the things i
need.
The posture of being in lack.
Why should I have to wait for anything?
When I have done my part.
I deserve better as I brought a full deck to the table.
I have goals, dreams, desires and I am in no position to put them in a storage stable.
I know this can't be what the Lord has for me.
No longer will I settle for less.
I want everything the Lord has in store for me to gain.
I realize that all relationships are give and take. 
But, not so much so that I have to pay for your mistakes.
