Built My World Around You (Respect & Love)**
*(A Raw Love Song of Pain, Truth & Devotion)*
**[Verse 1]**
I built my world around you,
Every step was for you.
Gave my all, held you close,
Prayed our love would always grow.
**[Verse 2]**
Paid the price for your dreams,
Ninety percent—no thanks it seems.
Then your words hit like a knife—
*"Can you even pay for my life?"*
**[Pre-Chorus]**
But baby, you’re not God above,
A man’s heart runs on love… and respect.
And I’ve bled enough.
**[Chorus]**
Still, I’ll love you through the pain,
Through the storms, through the rain.
But don’t you forget who stood tall,
Who gave his all before the fall.
**[Verse 3]**
Now I’m stuck in circles, lost in doubt,
Was it ever love or just a payout?
Fifty thousand a month or we’re through?
After all I sacrificed for you?
**[Bridge]**
I kneel and pray, *"Lord, guide my way,"*
But I won’t beg—I’ve got my faith.
A man’s love is strong, but it’s not free,
Respect’s the key to a man like me.
**[Final Chorus]**
So I’ll love you, but hear me clear—
A king won’t stay where he’s not revered.
God’s my source, not your demands,
But I’ll fight for us… while I still can.
**[Outro]**
So here’s my heart—bruised but true,
I built my world… around you.
