Justin Bieber is speaking his mind once again, sharing a cryptic post on Instagram slamming people who tell others what they 'should or shouldn't have.'
In white text typed over a purple gradient Tuesday (June 3), the pop star began by writing that 'telling other humans they deserve something is like raising someone else's kids.'

'Who are you to tell someone what someone should or shouldn't have,' he continued. 'The audacity. That's not your place.'
The 'Peaches' singer added, 'God decides what we deserve.'
Billboard has reached out to his reps for comment.
Bieber did not specify to whom he was referring in the post, but it does come at a particularly prosperous time for his family. A few days prior to his message, skincare mogul Hailey Bieber — whom the pop star married in 2018 — announced that she'd sold her Rhode company to e.l.f. Beauty for a reported $1 billion, something the musician celebrated by proudly sharing the news on his Instagram.
Before that, the model — with whom Justin welcomed son Jack Blues in August — appeared on the cover of Vogue. In the accompanying profile, the 'Baby' vocalist said, 'I've done a lot of dumb things in my life, but the smartest thing I've ever done was marry Hailey.'
The Grammy winner's post is just the latest cryptic statement he's made on Instagram in recent months. In February, he made headlines for posting about how it was 'time to grow up' on his Story, after which he penned musings in March about feeling like he was 'drowning' in 'hate' and struggling with feeling 'unworthy.'
In April, Justin called out paparazzi in Los Angeles, sharing a video of cameramen following him out to his car, writing, 'This has to stop.'
'IM CURRENTLY ASKING [GOD] TO HELP ME WITH PATIENCE BECAUSE It CAN BE REALLY HARD TO NOT RIP THESE F–KIN GUYS HEADS OFF,' he also wrote at the time. 'Today I'm forgiving myself for my own selfishness, AND forgiving THOSE WHO SEEK TO USE AND ABUSE ME SIMPLY BECAUSE THEY WANT TO CAPITaLIze off of me, Or Their jealousy makes them want to make me feel small like how they feel.'
