Lonely
Dreezy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's hard to find the one when all these niggas be on me
I thought that we was meant to be but I want you to show me
Cause let's be honest nobody wants to be lonely
Nobody wants to be, nobody wants to be โ be lonely, be lonely
Nobody wants to be, nobody wants to be โ be lonely, be lonely
I showed you part of me that nobody's ever seen
But you sat in front of me and said you was in love with me
And I believed you babe, ay
But I tend to forget that these niggas ain't shit
Kiss you right on your lips then hop in the whip with a dip like you wasn't his bitch
Told you he was in love bitch he read you the script
One hunnit this as real as it gets
You think you the one you just one on the list
So I text all these niggas and give them the time that I offered you
Let them pull up on me, probably roll a stogie just to get my mind off of you
Cause I know you out with your back-up
If I catch her she gone need back up
So maybe I should just back up
Pulled my guards down I put them back up
I just want to have somebody that's for me only
It's hard to find the one when all these niggas be on me
I thought that we was meant to be but I want you to show me
Cause let's be honest nobody wants to be lonely
Nobody wants to be, nobody wants to be โ be lonely, be lonely
Nobody wants to be, nobody wants to be โ be lonely, be lonely
It once was you and me
But you wouldn't let it be
You're so difficult
And really all you need is me
I wish that you could see
You're so difficult, ay
I'm looking for somebody
But not just anybody
Cause if I give you my body
Then I won't give it to anybody
But you tweakin, staying late on the weekends
You lying, you sneaking, she text you I'm peeking
You thought I was sleeping
You with her, you cheating, I'm cheated but creeping
I'm hurting, I'm heated, I'm through
So I called one of my niggas and told him come through
Ain't got feelings for him but I told him that he was my boo
Let him lay me down but whole time I was thinking bout you
But what hurts the most is I know you be laying up too
I just want to have somebody that's for me only
It's hard to find the one when all these niggas be on me
I thought that we was meant to be but I want you to show me
Cause let's be honest nobody wants to be lonely
Nobody wants to be, nobody wants to be โ be lonely, be lonely
Nobody wants to be, nobody wants to be โ be lonely, be lonely
Nobody wants to be, nobody wants to be โ be lonely, be lonely
Nobody wants to be, nobody wants to be โ be lonely, be lonely
In Dreezy's song "Lonely," the artist expresses her desire for a partner who will commit to a monogamous relationship with her. She speaks about her struggles in finding such a partner as many men are interested in her, but not genuinely committed. She admits to giving her heart to someone who doesn't reciprocate her love and instead of wasting her time on this person, she'd rather put her energy into someone who is willing to be with her exclusively.
In the second verse, Dreezy admits to giving her all to someone who didn't appreciate her efforts. She believed that they were meant to be together, but his actions proved otherwise. She describes the guy as someone who kisses her passionately but then leaves her to be with other women. She tries to move on by texting other guys and allowing them to take her out, but her heart is still with the one who hurt her.
The chorus repeats the line "nobody wants to be lonely," emphasizing the artist's desire for connection and romantic security. Dreezy wants someone who is willing to be with her and only her. The song's overall theme is one of emotional pain and the search for love, which is universal and relatable for many listeners.

I just want to have somebody that's for me only
I desire a faithful partner who is exclusively devoted to me
It's hard to find the one when all these n*****s be on me
It's challenging to identify a suitable partner when many people are showing romantic interest in me
I thought that we was meant to be but I want you to show me
I believed we had a special connection, but your actions suggest otherwise, and I need reassurance
Cause let's be honest nobody wants to be lonely
Being alone is undesirable for most individuals

But I tend to forget that these n*****s ain't s***
I often overlook the fact that most men aren't trustworthy
Kiss you right on your lips then hop in the whip with a dip like you wasn't his b****
After kissing you, he confidently leaves with another woman as if you are not his girlfriend
Told you he was in love b**** he read you the script
He lied to you about being in love, and you fell for his made-up story
So I text all these n*****s and give them the time that I offered you, Let them pull up on me, probably roll a stogie just to get my mind off of you
I'm entertaining other men who are interested in me and hanging out with them to divert my attention from you
I wish that you could see, You're so difficult
I hope you realize that you are challenging, and our relationship is not straightforward or easy
But you tweakin, staying late on the weekends, You lying, you sneaking, she text you I'm peeking
You are acting suspiciously by staying out late, lying to me, and cheating with another woman
Nobody wants to be, nobody wants to be โ be lonely, be lonely
Repeating the chorus to emphasize that no one wants to experience loneliness

This my life right now. When you love someone for years and they led you to believe they did too. You wait years and years for that person to get it right. When the main bitch with his son became a side. ๐ฏ๐ฏ๐ฏ๐ฏ๐ฏ
