Ain't No Love
Angela Latti Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Cos deep inside he know he don't deserve your loyalty
Cos everytime he cuss you out and beat you down girl
He's praying that you'll stick around
He's hoping no one else will notice you
Because he knows what he stands to lose
So now you tell your girlfriends at the job that you fell again
It's sad to say but he'll never stop
Baby girl that ain't what love's about
That ain't no love, no
When he tell you that he love you and he turn around and black up your eye
That ain't no love, no
When he say how much he miss you but he can't find his way home at night
That ain't no love
That ain't no love, no
When he tell you that you're beautiful and turn around and black up your eye
That ain't no love, no
When he say how much he miss you but he can't find his way home at night
That ain't no love, no
And I hate to break it to you girl, but that just ain't what loves about
That ain't no love
Girl he doesn't have a clue what you're going through
He's more concerned with his style than being good to you
And now you blame yourself for something that you didn't do
It's not your fault that he don't appreciate you
Wish you could see what you doing to yourself
And all because of someone else
So now he tells you last time was the last time
Beating on you like you was his pastime
Wish you could see that he's just so insecure
Even he knows you deserve more
I hate to say it but he'll never stop
Baby girl that ain't what love's about
That ain't no love, no
When he tell you that he love you and he turn around and black up your eye
That ain't no love, no
When he say how much he miss you but he can't find his way home at night
That ain't no love
That ain't no love, no
When he tell you that you're beautiful and turn around and black up your eye
That ain't no love, no
When he say how much he miss you but he can't find his way home at night
That ain't no love, no
And I hate to break it to you girl, but that just ain't what loves about
That ain't no love
He only puts you down to hide his insecurities
Because he knows what you deserve he will never be
Broken hearted and bruised, you're so beautiful
He's seen the fellows in the streets, how they look at you
And even as he pushes you away
He's hoping that you'll stay
And never go away
Girl he doesn't have a clue what you're going through
He's more concerned with his style than with loving you
It's sad to say but he'll never stop
Baby girl that ain't what love's about
That ain't no love, no
When he tell you that he love you and he turn around and black up your eye
That ain't no love, no
When he say how much he miss you but he can't find his way home at night
That ain't no love, no
When he tell you that he love you and he turn around and black up your eye
That ain't no love, no
When he say how much he miss you but he can't find his way home at night
That ain't no love, no
When he tell you that he love you and he turn around and black up your eye
That ain't no love, no
When he say how much he miss you but he can't find his way home at night
That ain't no love
That ain't no love
The lyrics to Angela Latti's song "Ain't No Love" address the destructive cycle of domestic violence and how it is never an expression of love. The singer describes a relationship where the man puts his partner down to mask his insecurities and doesn't appreciate her loyalty. Even when he physically hurts her, he hopes she will stay with him and that no one else will notice her. The singer emphasizes that physical abuse is not an expression of love and that it is important to recognize that this behavior is motivated by the abuser's insecurity and not the love he claims to have.
The lyrics also explore the woman's feelings of guilt and the blame she places on herself for her partner's abusive behavior. The abuse she endures makes her doubt her worth and beauty, even though she is not responsible for her partner's mistreatment of her. The singer urges the woman to see that she deserves better and that love is not supposed to make her feel broken and bruised.
The song concludes with the repeated refrain that this type of behavior is not what love is about. It is a powerful message that aims to empower women to leave abusive relationships and seek help.
