Fans of Justin Bieber are speculating that the lyrics from his 2021 song Lonely may allude to alleged events involving the singer and Diddy during Bieber’s younger years.
In Lonely, a track from his 2021 album Justice, Justin reflects on his past, singing: “And everybody saw me sick / And it felt like no one gave a s**t / They criticized the things I did as an idiot kid.”
He continues: “What if you had it all / And it felt like nobody to call? Maybe then you’d know me / ‘Cause I’ve had everything / But no one’s listening / And that’s just lonely. I’m so lonely. Lonely.”
Fans believe these lyrics hint at personal struggles Bieber faced during his time in the spotlight as a child star.
In the days following Diddy’s arrest in New York amid a sex trafficking investigation, fans have begun to scrutinize the troubled rapper’s relationship with Justin Bieber, now 30, during Bieber’s teenage years, describing resurfaced footage of the two together as “creepy.”
One fan commented, “No one protected him. Not even his family. I absolutely adore this song, but the words have always stood out to me. I hope he can heal with time.”
Newsafro.com has contacted Bieber’s representatives for a statement regarding these concerns.
