There is information in this post about cloud music and local music. Both are separate. You have to follow the directions for “Cloud”.

Message about deleting songs, part 2 – if all songs were uploaded to amazon cloud, they are the songs on the Kindle fire – pressing “device” only gets prompt on “no songs were found on your device”, because no device download took place.
