What are my Options of getting paid? It gets kinda messy and confusing.

GeorgiaMechanics Lien

I was hired as a subcontractor to do work on abunch of lots for a subdivision being built. I was hired by a guy that was hired directly by the Developing company. After months and months of promises and begging to be patient, and that they will pay as soon as the check comes in “This week” they say and fighting to get paid, the Contractor guy that hired me continues to say that he still hasn’t gotten paid by the developer, in return means he can’t pay me. It just continues on & on & on! Dating all the way back to early June/21 until Aug/21. (It Was from February, but they caught up Feb, March, April and May in the month of July, but I stopped working for them starting in September cause my owed invoice balance kept snowballing up to $30k, so I have not received any payment for any work done from June/21 to Aug/21. So Awhile back I had told him to put a lein on the subdivision to try and get them to act right, he states that the developer made him sign some papers to legalize that he wouldn’t be able to do that and that he couldn’t do that and won’t do that. So my question is this, how can I go AROUND my guys head that hired me and what action can I take in order to get him paid so he can pay me? Cause he says he can’t do anything and we just have to wait. But my patience is running thin and I have bills running a business just like anyone else, and when you go a few months with no paycheck that’s continuously being promised to you, that hurts not only you, but your whole family/Home.
