Justin Bieber
Pop star Justin Bieber
Denied he fathered a child
There, there is a lot of good that comes with celebrity, you know that
(Yeah) there is also a pretty white hot spotlight
(Of course) and you found yourself under it recently, (yeah) some headlines
(Set the record straight, none of it is true)
Do you know this woman? (Never met the woman)
No? (So) okay, alright, well, obviously this is what comes along with, uh (exactly)
Life in the fast lane as they say
She says she met me on a tour
She keeps knocking on my door
She won't leave me, leave me alone
This girl she wouldn't stop, almost had to call the cops
She was scheming, ooh, she was wrong
'Cause she wanted all my attention, oh
And she was dragging my name through the dirt (no)
She was dying for my affection
But she got mad 'cause I didn't give it to her
I'm talking to you, Maria
Why you wanna do me like that?
That ain't my baby (no), that ain't my girl
Maria, why you wanna play me like that?
She ain't my baby (no), that ain't my girl
But she talking in, and she needs to quit
But never this, all I know she's not mine
That ain't my baby (that's not my baby), that ain't my girl
'Cause she's wildin' out, what she talking about?
Let me tell you now, this girl she's not mine
She ain't my baby, she ain't my girl
Now she's in the magazines, on TV, making a scene
Oh she's crazy, crazy in love
And she's all over the news, saying everything but the truth
She's faking, faking it all
'Cause she wanted all my attention (yeah)
And she was dragging my name through the dirt (no)
She was dying for my affection
But she got mad 'cause I didn't give it to her
I'm talking to you, Maria
Why you wanna do me like that?
That ain't my baby (no), that ain't my girl
Maria, why you wanna play me like that?
She ain't my baby (no), she ain't my girl
But she talking in, and she needs to quit
But never this, all I know she's not mine
That ain't my baby (that's not my baby), that ain't my girl (no)
'Cause she's wildin' out, what she talking about?
Let me tell you now this girl she's not mine
She ain't my baby, she ain't my girl
Why are you trying, trying to lie, girl?
When ain't I never met you at all
Saying goodbye (bye), but how could ya
You throw this, you throw this
Your foolishness, seduces
Maria, why you wanna do me like that?
That ain't my baby (no), that ain't my girl
Maria, why you wanna play me like that?
She ain't my baby, she ain't my girl
But she talking in, and she needs to quit
But never this, all I know she's not mine
That ain't my baby, (that's not my baby) that ain't my girl (no)
'Cause she's wildin' out, what she talking about?
Let me tell you now, that girl she's not mine
She ain't my baby (she is not my baby), she ain't my girl (no)
That ain't my baby (she ain't my baby), that ain't my girl
She ain't my baby (she ain't my baby), she ain't my girl
That ain't my baby (she ain't my baby)
That ain't my girl (she ain't my girl, yeah)
She ain't my baby (she's not my girl)
Justin Bieber e o Drama de Maria: Desvendando a História por Trás da Letra
A música Maria de Justin Bieber é uma resposta direta a uma situação real vivida pelo artista, que se viu no centro de uma controvérsia quando uma fã alegou falsamente que ele era o pai de seu filho. A canção, que faz parte do álbum 'Believe' lançado em 2012, aborda a questão da fama e como ela pode atrair situações indesejadas e pessoas dispostas a manipular a verdade para ganhar atenção ou benefícios.
Na letra, Bieber expressa sua frustração e incredulidade diante das alegações da mulher, chamada Maria na música. Ele descreve como ela persistiu em sua busca por atenção, chegando ao ponto de ele quase ter que envolver a polícia. A insistência da mulher em manter sua história falsa e sua tentativa de ganhar afeição são temas centrais da canção. Bieber usa a música como um meio de esclarecer os fatos e reafirmar sua inocência, negando qualquer envolvimento com Maria.
A música também toca em como as alegações falsas ganharam espaço na mídia, com Maria aparecendo em revistas e na televisão. Bieber destaca a distorção da verdade e como isso afetou sua vida pessoal e pública. A canção é um exemplo de como artistas podem usar sua arte para lidar com questões pessoais e esclarecer mal-entendidos, ao mesmo tempo em que oferece aos fãs uma visão mais íntima dos desafios enfrentados pelas celebridades. Maria é um desabafo de Bieber, uma defesa contra as acusações e um apelo à verdade em meio ao caos da fama.
