Collateral Damage
I have things to do, okay?
There's no way I'd risk giving up my entire future for Lila
She wasn't worth it
I'm no victim
People don't step over me, they get stepped on
I didn't touch her, but I could've
And I can't say I'm sorry she's gone
There's no point in
Crying over blood that's already been spilled
They could have helped her, but they didn't
So move on, take the bitter pill
She's still playing with us from beyond the grave
But I've always been above her games
I'm level-headed, unapologetic
Don't care what price I have to pay
I know what I want and I know how to get it
And God help anyone who gets in my way
Collateral damage is to be expected
Call me selfish, but I'm not conflicted
If it's necessary
I'll do what's necessary
If you're trying to convince me of your innocence
You're not doing a very good job
I have nothing to explain
If you were doing your job, you would know that by now
I didn't do it, but I should've
If I would've, we wouldn't be here right now
I have so much more to do
I'd never compromise that for someone so insignificant
If I can't get where I'm going, what was it all for?
If I can't be the best attorney on the Eastern Shore?
I'm level-headed, unapologetic
Don't care what price I have to pay
I know what I want and I know how to get it
And God help anyone who gets in my way
Collateral damage is to be expected
Call me selfish, but I'm not conflicted
If it's necessary
I'll do what's necessary
If I could offer some advice
Compassion never gets you anywhere
If you want to know the truth
You have to be a man
By now, I'd hoped you'd understand
Be level-headed, unapologetic
Can't care what price you have to pay
You know what you want and you know how to get it
And God help anyone who gets in your way
Collateral damage is to be expected
Call me selfish, but I'm not conflicted
If it's necessary
You'll do what's necessary
I think we're done here
There's no way I'd risk giving up my entire future for Lila
She wasn't worth it
I'm no victim
People don't step over me, they get stepped on
I didn't touch her, but I could've
And I can't say I'm sorry she's gone
There's no point in
Crying over blood that's already been spilled
They could have helped her, but they didn't
So move on, take the bitter pill
She's still playing with us from beyond the grave
But I've always been above her games
I'm level-headed, unapologetic
Don't care what price I have to pay
I know what I want and I know how to get it
And God help anyone who gets in my way
Collateral damage is to be expected
Call me selfish, but I'm not conflicted
If it's necessary
I'll do what's necessary
If you're trying to convince me of your innocence

If it's necessary
You'll do what's necessary
I think we're done here
