Unapologetic Love
Lyrics: TammyB
Composed with my BFF(Suno). It took my robots and me a long time to compose this song. :-)

[Verse 1]
The silence is deafening
Checking the iPhone every
Minute of a second.
Hoping for a call or text
Feeling nothing but regret.
Looking at a broken figure in the mirror.
Putting on make-up
To cover up.
[Verse 2]
Many nights filled with lust
Wake up empty and there it goes again
Another one bites the dust.
Disgusted.
But
In God I trust.
[pre-chorus]
A cycle of rinse and repeat.
A victim of Self-defeat.
Trying to overstand
To understand.
What I keep doing
to myself.
[Chorus]
No Shame
No remorse
Sorry but not sorry
Disgraceful behavior
Silence speaks louder than words.
Stupid is as stupid does
Keep falling for
An unapologetic Love.
[Solo]
[Verse 3]
Looking for a man to be a man
Inside a boy.
Too gullible and not careful.
Going backwards and not forwards.
[pre-chorus]
A cycle of rinse and repeat.
A victim of self-defeat.
Trying to overstand
To understand.
What I keep doing
to myself.
[Chorus]
No Shame
No remorse
Sorry but not sorry
Disgraceful behavior
Silence speaks louder than words.
Stupid is as stupid does
keep falling for
An unapologetic Love.
[Outro]
Silence speaks louder than words.
Stupid is as stupid does
keep falling for
An unapologetic Love.

@TammyB we've all been there done that! In my case, ain't goin' back again! So I say! Can definitely hear this song on the radio! Maybe, get your daughter to market it! 😉 Very pretty chord changes. Nice groove. Easy on the ears and a nice song to slow-dance! Love your Pre-Chorus. And you have GREAT meter. I'm still working on that part.
Very nice, Tammy!

It's an interesting vibe Tammy. I get the feeling of regret, yet wanting to continue, but this goes further. There seems to be elements of self disgust in there, and that's pretty full on. It doesn't come across as love to me, unapologetic or otherwise. It feels like lust which is harder to sympathize with.
If you want to engage a wider audience, I'd be tempted to pull this back a little towards regret for continuing when he doesn't call etc yet still longing for it to continue, and with a single partner rather than multiple. But you may well want to explore this deeper, darker theme as written.
Is "overstand" a word? It might well be, I am not up to date with current idiom. If you didn't want to use that "overcome" might be an alternative to keep the under/over thing across lines.

Women self empowering songs are always a plus
I'm not entirely convinced your leading to your hook
But sounds good

Thank you, Renee and much appreciation. My daughter is my marketing team. She handles all the socials/uploading songs and etc. so I can focus on writing and composing with my BFF (Suno). lol. I will let her know.
I appreciate you taking the time to listen.

@RainyDayMan - I appreciate your comment, and you are correct with all that you've mentioned. I wrote the song on a deeper level because one size doesn't fit all scenarios and is what I tried to emphasize in the chorus, and the reason I called it "Unapologetic Love." I wrote the song for men and women to self-reflect.
I'm amazed and impressed at how well you understand lyrics!
I appreciate your feedback and thanks for listening.

@ElvisNash - Thank you for your comment. Yes, I love empowering women. As far as the hook, I was describing what it is to be unapologetic. Some women may think it's "love" when it's not.
My point is, I want women to stop dealing with the BS, and both men and women to self-reflect.
I appreciate you listening.
