Lyrics of Lonely by Wale, Shaboozey
[Intro: Wale]
Do you like the lonely work? Or do you—?
Yeah, but we don’t know how we gon’ use it
[Pre-Chorus: Wale]
I been away sometimes, s*it change, don’t mean I can change your mind, yeah
You been away sometimes, s*it change, oh, you getting complacent, ah, yeah
And everyone say you fine, when you home, you don’t wanna be alone, no, no
‘Cause you feel a way inside, but inside ain’t ever this cold
[Chorus: Wale]
I heard it get lonely, lonely
Lonely outside (I heard it get)
I heard it get lonely, lonely
Lonely outside, I, I
[Verse 1: Wale]
It’s gonna be aight, it’s gotta be aight
You can thank your homegirls, you took all they advice
Maybe this is life, or maybe this is spite
I don’t even know anymore, I’m not that type
I’m not about to type, right now, I’m on this flight
Red-eye to my show, let me guess, you high, light room
Can tell I held you up, now you back to where you vib
etting down on the floor, gotta run before you fly
[Pre-Chorus: Wale]
I been away sometimes, s*it change, don’t mean I can change your mind, yeah
You been away sometimes, s*it change, oh, you getting complacent, ah, yeah
And everyone say you fine, when you home, you don’t wanna be alone, no, no
‘Cause you feel a way inside, but inside ain’t ever this cold
[Chorus: Wale & Shaboozey]
I heard it get lonely, lonely
Lonely outside (I heard it get)
I heard it get lonely, lonely
Lonely outside, I, I (Uh, yeah)
[Verse 2: Shaboozey]
The four corners of the block you belong to
I’m glad you finally doing everything that you want to
I know you love standing on tables in clubs
I’m worried ’bout your well-being ’cause I know what you’re drawn to
Got tired of getting drunk at the dive bar
You sold your fam the old Chevy ’cause it wasn’t a Nascar
You’re going way too fast, not good on gas
‘Cause you settle down for anyone who hand you a black card, yeah
[Pre-Chorus: Wale, Wale & Shaboozey]
I been away sometimes, s*it change, don’t mean I can change your mind, yeah
You been away sometimes, s*it change, oh, you getting complacent, ah, yeah
And everyone say you fine, when you home, you don’t wanna be alone, no, no
‘Cause you feel a way inside, but inside ain’t ever this cold
[Chorus: Wale, Shaboozey, Wale & Shaboozey]
I heard it get lonely, lonely
Lonely outside (I heard it get)
I heard it get lonely (I heard it get), lonely (I heard it get)
Lonely outside, I, I
[Outro: Wale]
I heard it get lonely, lonely
Lonely outside, I heard it get
(Lonely, lonely, lonely outside)
Meaning of Lonely Lyrics
Intro: Wale Meaning:
He’s talking about dealing with loneliness and the effort it takes. He’s unsure how to handle it, showing confusion about what to do with that feeling.
Pre-Chorus: Wale Meaning:
He reflects on being away and how time and distance change things, but it doesn’t mean he can change someone else’s mind. He notices the other person becoming comfortable or complacent, even if people say everything is fine. Deep down, they don’t want to be alone, and there’s a cold emptiness inside that no one else sees. It’s about hiding feelings while struggling with inner loneliness.
Chorus: Wale Meaning:
He’s heard that feeling lonely can hit hard, and sometimes it feels like the world outside mirrors that emptiness.
Verse 1: Wale Meaning:
He reassures that things will be okay and notices the other person taking advice from friends. He’s unsure if life is guiding their choices or if they’re acting out of frustration. He’s busy with his own life, traveling for work, while the other person seems to be living in the moment, maybe partying or using substances to cope. He notices their patterns but can’t control them, and there’s a sense of distance even though he cares.
Pre-Chorus: Wale Meaning:
He repeats that being away doesn’t give him power to change anyone’s choices. The other person has grown comfortable in their habits, and though everyone else thinks they’re fine, they struggle with loneliness inside, feeling colder than anyone realizes.
Chorus: Wale & Shaboozey Meaning:
Loneliness is real and noticeable, and he’s emphasizing that this emptiness affects people even when it’s not obvious to others.
Verse 2: Shaboozey Meaning:
She talks about the other person exploring their world, doing what they want, but she’s worried about their choices. They enjoy risky behavior, partying, and fast living, which might hurt them in the long run. She notices they’ve moved on from family traditions or simple life, choosing flashy things and quick thrills instead. She’s concerned they settle for people or things that look good but aren’t right for them, showing care through her observations.
Pre-Chorus: Wale, Wale & Shaboozey Meaning:
He again reflects on distance and change, how people can get used to certain patterns, and that surface appearances don’t show the real loneliness inside. Even when everyone says they’re fine, there’s a deep emptiness that no one else feels.
Chorus: Wale, Shaboozey, Wale & Shaboozey Meaning:
Loneliness can hit anyone at any time, and it’s something that affects life outside, showing that no matter how busy or distracted, that feeling lingers and can’t be ignored.
Outro: Wale Meaning:
He ends by emphasizing that loneliness is out there and real, and people experience it even when it’s not visible.
