Apple Music will play inexplicit instead of explicit version of song

There is an album called NAV by an artist (NAV). It has the E symbol next to it indicating that it is the explicit version. All of the songs in the album play the explicit version except for one called ‘Lonely’ which has the E symbol next to but it plays the inexplicit version instead. Is there a way to fix this? Every other song seems fine
