Sorry Not Sorry
Demi Lovato/Musicfire.in Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Payback is a bad bitch
And baby, I'm the baddest

Now I'm out here looking like revenge
Feelin' like a ten, the best I ever been
And yeah, I know how bad it must hurt
To see me like this, but it gets worse (wait a minute)
Now you're out here looking like regret
Ain't too proud to beg, second chance you'll never get
And yeah, I know how bad it must hurt to see me like this
But it gets worse (wait a minute)

Now payback is a bad bitch
And baby, I'm the baddest
You fuckin' with a savage
Can't have this, can't have this (ah)
And it'd be nice of me to take it easy on ya, but nah

Baby, I'm sorry (I'm not sorry)
Baby, I'm sorry (I'm not sorry)
Being so bad got me feelin' so good
Showing you up like I knew that I would
Baby, I'm sorry (I'm not sorry)
Baby, I'm sorry (I'm not sorry)
Feeling inspired 'cause the tables have turned
Yeah, I'm on fire and I know that it burns

Baby, fineness is the way to kill
Tell me how it feel, bet it's such a bitter pill
And yeah, I know you thought you had bigger, better things
Bet right now this stings (wait a minute)
'Cause the grass is greener under me
Bright as technicolor, I can tell that you can see
And yeah, I know how bad it must hurt to see me like this
But it gets worse (wait a minute)

Now payback is a bad bitch
And baby, I'm the baddest
You fuckin' with a savage
Can't have this, can't have this (ah)
And it'd be nice of me to take it easy on ya, but nah

Baby, I'm sorry (I'm not sorry)
Baby, I'm sorry (I'm not sorry)
Being so bad got me feelin' so good
Showing you up like I knew that I would
Baby, I'm sorry (I'm not sorry)
Baby, I'm sorry (I'm not sorry)
Feeling inspired 'cause the tables have turned
Yeah, I'm on fire and I know that it burns

Talk that talk, baby
Better walk, better walk that walk, baby
If you talk, if you talk that talk, baby
Better walk, better walk that walk, baby
Oh yeah
Talk that talk, baby
Better walk, better walk that walk, baby
If you talk, if you talk that talk, baby
Better walk, better walk that walk, baby

Baby, I'm sorry (I'm not sorry)
Baby, I'm sorry (I'm not sorry)
Being so bad got me feelin' so good
Showing you up like I knew that I would
Baby, I'm sorry (I'm not sorry)
Baby, I'm sorry (I'm not sorry)
Feeling inspired 'cause the tables have turned
Yeah, I'm on fire and I know that it burns

Payback is a bad bitch




And baby, I'm the baddest
I'm the baddest, I'm the baddest

Overall Meaning

In the song "Sorry Not Sorry" by Demi Lovato, the lyrics talk about payback being a bad bitch and the singer being the baddest. The song is about revenge and feeling empowered after a bad breakup. The singer is now looking and feeling better than ever, and it hurts the person who broke their heart to see them doing so well. The tables have turned, and now the person who did them wrong is regretting their decision and asking for a second chance, but it's too late. The singer feels like a savage and cannot be tamed by their ex-lover.


The chorus repeats the lines "Baby, I'm sorry (I'm not sorry)," which is the singer's way of saying that they don't feel guilty for moving on and being successful without their ex. They are not sorry for being the baddest and showing their former lover what they are missing out on. The song ends with the repeated line, "Payback is a bad bitch, and baby, I'm the baddest," emphasizing that the singer has taken control of their life and is not looking back.


Overall, "Sorry Not Sorry" is a powerful anthem about moving on from a bad relationship and feeling confident in oneself. The lyrics and melody make it a catchy and empowering song that encourages listeners to stand up for themselves and not let anyone bring them down.
