In his highly anticipated seventh studio release, titled “Swag,” the pop sensation seems to confront persistent speculation regarding his relationship issues with spouse Hailey Bieber in multiple songs.
In the track “Walking Away,” the 31-year-old vocalist expressed, “Please explain why you are casting stones at me from behind — You are aware that I am vulnerable.”
“Friend, it would be wise to pause before we express ourselves too freely. Our limits have been tested. It might be more beneficial for us to take a step back and reflect on the importance of grace,” Bieber remarked.
In his subsequent lyrics, he expressed, “Darling, I won’t be leaving. You were my precious gem. I presented you with a ring. I made you a vow. I assured you that I would evolve. It’s simply in our nature to experience these growing pains. And darling, I won’t be leaving.”
In the song “Daisies,” Bieber seemed to convey a sense of emotional doubt as he examined the stability of his relationship.

He likened his feelings to the act of removing petals, asking through his lyrics, “Do you love me or not?”
“My mind is racing, and I can’t tell when it will calm down. You claimed ‘Forever,’ babe, did you genuinely mean it?” Bieber persisted.
“And if this isn’t right, babe, you know I respect your feelings. But take all the time you need. Sweetheart, I understand, I understand, I understand.”
In his song “Go Baby,” one of the gentler segments of the album, Bieber seemed to transition from chaos to tenderness. This time, he directed his song to his spouse, Hailey, 28, filled with admiration and love.
He characterized the model as “iconic,” also referencing her trending Rhode lip gloss, neatly placed within her iPhone case — a nod to her expanding beauty brand.
“When daylight fades into darkness and facing it becomes challenging. Like rain is essential to a flower, babe, I understand you require the rain. Nothing has to be resolved, and nothing needs to split apart. There’s no need to act as though you’re fine.”
Bieber continued, “Lean on my shoulder… remain beside me.”
Hailey demonstrated her encouragement by posting several images of his album artwork on her Instagram story.
Representatives for Bieber did not respond to Fox News Digital’s prompt inquiry for a statement.

In May, Bieber publicly apologized to his wife regarding her Vogue magazine cover.
He posted on Instagram images from Hailey’s Vogue photoshoot. In his caption, he recounted a past moment when he told her she would never grace the cover of the renowned fashion magazine.
“This brings to mind the time when Hailey and I had an intense argument,” he stated. “I expressed to her that she would never feature on the cover of Vogue. I realize this was rather harsh.”
“For some inexplicable reason, feeling disrespected led me to think I needed to retaliate… As we grow older, we come to understand that seeking revenge does not aid our situation. In truth, it merely delays our genuine desire for intimacy and connection.”
Bieber, who has subsequently removed his caption, concluded his post with a personal message to his wife, stating, “So sweetheart, you already know, but I apologize for claiming you wouldn’t grace the cover of Vogue because I clearly was profoundly mistaken.”
Earlier in the same month, Bieber acknowledged being “imperfect” in a series of posts across social media platforms.
The artist, who had earlier drawn attention for his conduct on social media, which raised concerns among fans, expressed, “I am simply an ordinary flawed individual. I have engaged in actions that have caused pain to others. I continue to act and speak in ways that unintentionally hurt others.”
Bieber and Hailey were married in 2018, and they welcomed their first child, Jack Blues Bieber, in August 2024.
