I Know I Should Care
Unapologetic Liberation: I Don't Care
Lyrics
I know I should care
I recognize the importance of caring
But I don't
Despite understanding, I lack the emotional investment
I know I should take it back
I acknowledge the need to retract my actions
But I won't
I choose not to take back what I've done
I've had enough of you
I've reached a point of dissatisfaction with you
And the hell you put me through
Expressing the distress you've caused me
I know I should care
Reiterating the lack of genuine concern
But I don't
Reaffirming the emotional detachment
Came home with somethin' to say
Returning home with a message
The bottle I drank had me feelin' brave
The alcohol consumed fueled a sense of courage
Said some things that I should regret
Uttering words that should evoke remorse
But I ain't felt it yet
Yet, the regret hasn't surfaced
If you're waitin' on sorry
If an apology is anticipated, it won't come easily
You'll be waitin' here all night
Delaying remorse, suggesting a prolonged wait
I know I should care
Reiterating the acknowledged lack of caring
But I don't
Emphasizing the emotional disconnection
I know I should take it back
Recognizing the need for retracement
But I won't
Choosing to persist in actions without remorse
I've had it up to here
Expressing exhaustion from conflicts and tears
With the fightin' and the tears
Acknowledging the absence of genuine concern
I know I should care
Reiterating the emotional detachment
But I don't
Emphasizing the persistent lack of caring
Slam the door with nowhere to go
Exiting abruptly with no clear destination
One eye closed and one eye on the road
Driving with impaired vision and focus
Flash of red and blue
Encountering police lights, intensifying negative feelings
Just reminds me that I hate you
A reminder of resentment and hatred
I'll apologize to you if you post my bail
Offering an apology if personal consequences are avoided
I know I should care
Affirming the persistent emotional detachment
But I don't
Reiterating the lack of genuine concern
I know I should slow it down
Acknowledging the need to decelerate
But I won't
Choosing to maintain the current pace
Just like a DWI you rob me of my pride
Comparing emotional impact to a driving violation
I know I should care
Affirming the persistent emotional detachment
But I don't
Reiterating the acknowledged lack of caring
I know I should care
Final acknowledgment of the emotional disconnection
But I don't
Reaffirming the enduring lack of emotional investment
