Hence, here are some of the most revealing lyrics from Gomez's album which might be for Justin Bieber:

1) Rare

Rare is the title track of the album. Through the song, Selena made a huge revelation. She revealed that her ex-boyfriend, Justin Bieber reportedly, undervalued her and that she is all set to find someone else who would not do the same.

It feels like you don't care / Why don't you recognize I'm so rare? / Always there / You don't do the same for me / That's not fair

I don't have it all / I'm not claiming to / But I know that I'm special, yeah / And I bet there's somebody else out there / To tell me I'm rare / To make me feel rare

2) Dance Again

Dance Again is Gomez's composition wherein she opens up on wanting to meet new people, fall in love again, and feel like herself post-breakup (with Justin). It explores her confidence and comfort in being herself, vulnerable and emotional.

Vulnerable / Ain't easy, believe me, but I go there / Mmm, ah / It's like I'm ten feet tall / I'm high off the weight of them shoulders

Happiness / Ain't something you sit back and you wait for / Mmm, ah / Confidence / Is throwing your heart through every brick wall

These days, we couldn't be farther / So how’s it feel to be on the other side?
