I just sent the intent to lien on 3/19/2020, but now have no option to file the lien. Is my only option to file lawsuit?

Missouri mechanics liens will be available against private construction projects. And, the deadline to file a mechanics lien in Missouri will typically be 6 months after last furnishing labor or materials to the job. For equipment lessors, the timeframe is much shorter - merely 60 days from last furnishing. So, if the deadline hasn't passed, then filing a mechanics lien will be an option for recovering payment.
If the job is public in nature, rather than private - a mechanics lien claim won't be on the table. And, instead, a bond claim would be more appropriate. More on that here: What’s the Difference Between a Mechanics Lien and a Bond Claim?
