Nobody can predict what song will be a hit.
That doesn't mean that there's no skill or knowledge involved in songwriting.
Your talking that art is about money, nobody here and for that matter anywhere else is making money with music, only the elite lucky few, where it doesn't matter anyway if a song is good.
Put it this way, what purpose are you serving posting a song here? No I am not. My point is that one year working intensely on a songwriting team in participation with actual music professionals is worth a thousand of years of writing alone as an amateur being advised by other amateurs. Almost every housewife that has ever remodeled a kitchen thinks that she is just as good as any architect at design. And all the "little people" stuff like building codes and permit dox is for the little people to do. Duning-Kreuger applies there and to songwriting and a lot of other things. Why posting here?...it's a passionate hobby that delivers hours of in-the-moment enjoyment.

"Defeatist Pessimists and Rose Colored Glasses Optimists are lonely companions, victims even. Both ideologies imply predestined outcomes, and therefore breed inactivity in its victims. Inaction is the only sure way to lose at anything in life. All positive action guarantees at least a fighting chance." -Brian Austin Whitney
